Integrate Pay with CryptoPublic preview

Start accepting crypto by integrating Pay with Crypto.

Pay with Crypto works 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 Pay with Crypto demo.

Let your users pay with crypto

Before you can enable crypto as a payment method within the prebuilt checkout page, go to your payment methods settings and request the Crypto. After we review your information and approve you as a user, the Crypto payment method appears as active in the Stripe Dashboard.
