Payments don’t fail because of demand; they fail because of distribution.
Today, hundreds of millions of people already hold crypto and stablecoins in wallets. They are being paid in them, saving in them, and increasingly expecting to spend directly from them. The demand side is no longer the question.
The real challenge is on the supply side: how do PSPs and merchants reach all of those users without turning wallet support into an operational nightmare?
For years, the default answer has been incremental: Add another wallet. Then another. Then another.
That approach might work in the early days of an ecosystem. At scale, it breaks.
Wallet adoption is global, fragmented, and constantly evolving. New wallets emerge. Regional wallets gain traction. Embedded wallets appear inside payroll, fintech, and consumer apps. Supporting them one by one is not a strategy; it’s an endless maintenance loop.
What PSPs actually need is not more wallet integrations.
PSPs need one integration that reaches them all. They need WalletConnect.
Stop integrating wallets one by one
The reality is straightforward:
- Users already have wallets
- Those wallets already hold spendable value (increasingly stablecoins)
- And merchants don’t want to care which wallet a customer uses
Trying to add wallets individually creates three structural problems:
- Fragmentation: every new wallet adds surface area to maintain
- Limited reach: supporting five wallets still excludes hundreds more
- Future risk: today’s popular wallet may not be tomorrow’s
For PSPs, this turns wallet payments into a never-ending roadmap tax.
There is a better way.
WalletConnect is already the wallet layer
The scale of WalletConnect matters because reach is what determines whether a payment method actually works in the real world.
Today, the WalletConnect Network provides:
- 700+ integrated wallets across mobile, browser, desktop, and embedded experiences
- 500M+ reachable end users globally through those wallets
- Support across all major chains and ecosystems
- A proven network that facilitated $400B+ in onchain transactions in 2025
This isn’t theoretical coverage. It’s live, production-scale infrastructure already used every day by consumers and applications worldwide.
WalletConnect is not another wallet.
It is the connection standard used by the wallet ecosystem.
Today, WalletConnect is natively integrated into 700+ wallets, including:
- Self‑custodial wallets like MetaMask, OKX Wallet, Binance Wallet, and Zerion
- Embedded wallets inside fintech, payroll, and consumer apps
- Mobile, browser, and desktop wallets are used globally
Collectively, this represents hundreds of millions of wallet users worldwide.
When you support WalletConnect, you are not choosing a wallet. You are choosing the wallet layer itself.
One checkout, unmatched reach
WalletConnect Pay builds directly on this network.
It gives PSPs and merchants a single checkout integration that works across:
- 700+ wallets
- Any major chain
- Any supported asset, including stablecoins
No wallet-by-wallet integrations. No preference for a single provider. No tradeoff between reach and simplicity.
From the merchant’s perspective, it’s one payment method. From the user’s perspective, it works with the wallet they already trust. From a PSP perspective its an end-to-end solution for all crypto payments.
Why reach matters more than ever
Wallet reach isn’t theoretical anymore. It’s being fueled by real distribution.
People are increasingly:
- Paid in stablecoins via payroll and contractor platforms
- Holding balances in wallets, not bank accounts
- Expecting to spend directly from those wallets
That means checkout needs to meet users where their money already lives.
WalletConnect Pay does that, without asking merchants or PSPs to guess which wallets will matter next.
Built for PSPs, not wallet experiments
WalletConnect Pay is designed to fit into existing PSP stacks.
It behaves like an APM:
- Integrated once at the PSP level
- Added to the payment method mix
- Enabled by merchants when they choose
WalletConnect handles the complexity end-to-end:
- Wallet connectivity
- Asset abstraction
- Payment flow consistency
- Network‑grade reliability
PSPs don’t need to manage wallet logic. Merchants don’t need to understand crypto. Users just pay.
Reach for merchants. Revenue for PSPs.
Unmatched reach isn’t just a coverage story; it’s an economic one.
For merchants:
- Access customers paying directly from wallets
- Lower acceptance costs compared to cards
- Faster settlement and improved cash flow
For PSPs:
- A new, incremental revenue stream
- Stronger merchant retention
- Differentiation without operational burden
Because WalletConnect Pay works across the entire wallet ecosystem, every new wallet adoption automatically expands reach, without new integrations.
Why “700+ wallets” really matters
Supporting one wallet gives you one distribution channel.
Supporting WalletConnect gives you the network effect of the entire ecosystem.
As new wallets launch, embed WalletConnect, or gain regional traction, they are immediately compatible with WalletConnect Pay.
That’s what future‑proof reach looks like.
Conclusion: stop chasing wallets. Integrate the network.
Crypto payments don’t scale by adding more wallets.
They scale by standardizing how wallets connect to commerce.
700+ wallets. One checkout. Hundreds of millions of users.
WalletConnect Pay gives PSPs and merchants unmatched reach, delivered through a single, familiar integration that fits cleanly into existing payment stacks.
Stop integrating wallets one by one. Integrate WalletConnect Pay and reach them all!
Any wallet, any asset, anywhere.
