As a pioneer and leader in global blockchain payments, BitPay enables businesses to accept cryptocurrency as a form of payment without having to buy, own or manage crypto.

By adding cryptocurrency as a payment option, businesses reduce high fees from traditional payment methods and increase payment transparency and efficiency.

For consumers, BitPay makes it easy to spend crypto online with the BitPay Chrome extension. Shoppers simply click on the BitPay extension icon when shopping to discover how they can use their crypto. The extension allows them to pay directly at checkout or purchase and manage store credit from more than 150+ major brands.
