Benefits of accepting Crypto payments

Benefits of accepting Crypto payments

Nearly 75% of retailers plan to accept either cryptocurrency or stablecoin payments within the next two years, according to research from Deloitte. By offering crypto as a payment option, you can reach and attract new customers who prefer this payment method or don’t have access to traditional banking services.

Lower Transaction Fees

One of the biggest advantages of accepting crypto payments is that transaction fees are much lower than credit card processing fees. While credit processors typically charge between 2%-3%, crypto will typically be lower, around 1%, on your transactions.

Faster Transactions

Credit card transactions can take days or even weeks to deposit funds into your account. With crypto payments, transactions are nearly instant, meaning your earnings are available significantly faster so that you can keep building your business.
