Stripe fiat-to-crypto onrampBeta
Let your users securely purchase crypto directly from your platform or Dapp.
The Stripe fiat-to-crypto onramp lets users securely purchase cryptocurrencies directly from your platform or decentralised application (Dapp) at checkout. You can customise and integrate the onramp into your product or service. To access the onramp API, submit an onramp application.
Stripe serves as the merchant of record for these onramp transactions and assumes full liability for all fraud and disputes. We also handle all regulatory requirements, know your customer (KYC) verifications, and sanctions screening. Users can save payment methods, KYC data, and wallet information with Stripe, which reduces the number of steps required when users return to onramp.
