Accept a stablecoin paymentPublic preview

Start accepting stablecoins by integrating the Crypto payment method.

You can accept stablecoin payments with Checkout, Elements, or can be directly integrated through the Payment Intents API. If you’re a Connect platform, see Connect support.

When integrated, the option to pay with crypto appears in your checkout page, redirecting customers to a page hosted by crypto.link.com for payment completion. There, your customers can connect their wallet, and save and reuse their account using Link. You’re immediately notified if the payment succeeds or fails. Before you get started, see our demo.

Before you can use crypto as a payment method in the prebuilt checkout page, it needs to be enabled for your account. Navigate to your payment methods settings and click Turn on for the Crypto option. After we review your information and approve you as a user, the Crypto payment method is active in the Dashboard.

Test your integration

Test your Pay with Crypto integration with your test API keys by viewing the redirect page. You can test the successful payment case by authenticating the payment on the redirect page. The PaymentIntent transitions from requires_action to succeeded.

In sandbox, pay with testnet crypto assets on the payment page you’re redirected to.
Configure your wallet to the test network you intend to pay over. For example, if you want to pay with USDC on Ethereum, make sure your wallet is set to Ethereum’s Sepolia test network.

Fund your wallet with test assets

You can use testnet “faucets” to top up your wallet. Here are a few:
