*Cryptocurrency is considered volatile because of how much - and how quickly - its value can change. Like all currencies, there's potential for gains and losses. Keep in mind that we can't protect you from losses as a result of market volatility. Be sure to do your research and buy and sell carefully.

Future-forward benefits for your business

A new era of consumers is passionate about spending crypto. Embracing this payment trend can help merchants grow their audience base, boost sales and easily build loyalty and reward programmes.

Reach broader markets

Offering cryptocurrency as a payment method can open up your brand to an entirely new global market — catering to younger, more tech-savvy and forward-thinking shoppers.

Keep transactions low cost and secure

Credit card companies typically charge transaction fees of anywhere from 2-4%. Cryptocurrency transactions often don’t have transaction fees — or charge fees as low as 0.5%.

Offer more payment options

Crypto adoption won’t affect traditional payment offerings — with blockchain technology, crypto payments can seamlessly integrate within your website and with other payment options.

Innovate for the next generation of retail

In ecommerce, technology is our future. Accepting crypto can help your brand stand out from the competition, keeping you on the cutting edge of retail technology.

“Unlike with credit card payments, crypto has zero chargeback risk for BigCommerce merchants”
