Solana Pay, the fastest growing crypto checkout solution for Shopify merchants, has expanded its support to include Bitcoin, Ethereum and L2s alongside Solana. This move is a significant step forward in solidifying Solana Pay as the most seamless and versatile crypto solution for Shopify merchants looking to embrace crypto payments. 

Helio was born on Solana because it's the fastest and cheapest blockchain for payments. Since expanding Solana Pay’s functionality, it is now the most seamless crypto checkout experience on the market with over 1,000 Shopify stores worldwide currently accepting millions in crypto payments. Now, Solana Pay merchants can enjoy the same secure and user-friendly checkout experience on Bitcoin, Ethereum and L2s.

One Crypto Checkout, All Payments

We’ve listened to Shopify merchants and one of the most common questions we receive is, "Do you support Bitcoin and Ethereum?"

While Solana's speed and affordability are unmatched, Bitcoin and Ethereum remain two of the largest cryptocurrencies by market cap. Solana will always be the default network, but now merchants can benefit from the perks of multichain functionality including: 

• Flexibility for Customers: By offering Solana, Bitcoin, Ethereum and L2s, merchants can cater to a wider audience and make it easier for customers to pay with their preferred currency. 

• Leveraging Solana: While Bitcoin and Ethereum may be widely known, Solana's speed and efficiency can provide an alternative experience for your customers.

• Simplified Management: Now merchants can manage all their crypto payments from a single dashboard, streamlining their operations.

More Than Payments

Merchants using Solana Pay on Solana enjoy a variety of customer engagement features, some of which we’ve extended to Bitcoin, Ethereum and L2s including NFT discounts and gating, Discord gating and allowlisting.

Popular NFT brands like BoDoggos, Claynosaurz, and MonkeDAO leverage Solana Pay to offer exclusive discounts to their NFT holders, automatically applied at checkout.
