MoonPay, a prominent player in the crypto payments landscape, has unveiled MoonPay Commerce, a pioneering platform designed for merchants, creators, and developers to facilitate global crypto transactions seamlessly. This new offering has quickly garnered the trust of over 6,000 entities, including well-known brands such as Shopify, The Solana Foundation, Ledger, and CoinMarketCap.
The launch of MoonPay Commerce marks a significant milestone as it integrates Helio’s advanced payment technology under the MoonPay umbrella. This unified platform blends MoonPay’s robust infrastructure with Helio’s efficient checkout tools, aiming to simplify and enhance the crypto commerce experience.
One key feature of MoonPay Commerce is its role in powering Solana Pay on Shopify. Originally developed by Helio, this integration provides Shopify merchants with the capability to accept instant, low-cost crypto payments, paving the way for mainstream adoption of digital currencies in e-commerce.
The new platform offers users the ability to establish checkouts, subscriptions, and deposits within minutes. Its user-friendly dashboard provides real-time insights and customizable functionalities, allowing businesses to craft uniquely branded payment experiences. Merchants and developers can quickly integrate MoonPay Commerce without the hassle of complex setups, choosing from several integration methods tailored to fit various business models.
MoonPay Commerce provides options such as widgets and plugins for embedding crypto checkout solutions, enabling crypto deposits for applications like iGaming and trading, shareable Pay Links, and even the ability for non-crypto customers to pay using traditional cards while still receiving payment in crypto.
For those seeking more intricate customization, MoonPay Commerce includes an Advanced Options toolkit that offers enterprise-level flexibility. This feature set enables merchants to enhance user engagement through affiliate links, manage split payments across multiple wallet addresses, provide gated memberships through platforms like Discord or Telegram, and run timed sales events.
The platform supports a wide array of popular cryptocurrencies, including USDC, USDT, ETH, SOL, and BTC, while integrating smoothly with leading wallets and exchanges. Merchants have the flexibility to settle payments either directly in crypto or to auto-convert them into fiat currencies such as USD and EUR. This versatility is complemented by low fees, reduced risk, and direct buyer-to-merchant payment structures.
In January 2025, MoonPay acquired Helio, seamlessly incorporating the rapidly expanding crypto payments startup into its ecosystem. With MoonPay Commerce, Helio’s technology is now part of a cohesive framework that caters to businesses ranging from individual creators to large enterprises. Current users of Helio will transition to the MoonPay Commerce platform without any interruption in service.
MoonPay Commerce is now available to users globally, marking a new phase in the adoption and facilitation of crypto payments worldwide.
