WalletConnect Pay SDK gives your users the best crypto payment experience — spending crypto and stablecoins directly from their wallet, no offramping required, online and in-store. One integration connects your wallet to a live, growing network of global PSPs and merchants.
Works alongside your existing card program, or gives you payment capability without one. No payment infrastructure to build. No PSP relationships to manage one by one.
See what the checkout experience could look like for your users.
You earn interchange-like revenue and your users earn cashback on every transaction in $WCT. Eligible wallets also receive a one-time integration incentive of 40,000 WCT for completing integration before June 30.
Why It Matters
Crypto holders are already spending. Most of that flow runs through offramping first — converting crypto to fiat before a transaction — or through crypto card programs that still settle on Visa and Mastercard rails. Either way, the wallet gets cut out of the experience. The payment happens outside the app, outside your UX, and outside your control — which means every transaction is a missed touchpoint: no engagement, no retention signal, no revenue. The wallet becomes a holding account, not a spending one.
That's an infrastructure gap, not a user behavior problem. Users are ready to spend. The rails weren't there.
WalletConnect Pay closes that gap — and the merchant coverage is already live and expanding on two tracks. Global partners like Ingenico, with tens of millions of terminals across 32 countries, bring access to high-value segments in developed markets where cards already dominate but carry high fees. Regional partners like DTC Pay in Singapore — and upcoming launches in Africa — put WalletConnect Pay where card penetration is low and/or QR payments are already the norm, and stablecoin adoption is moving fastest. These are markets your card program can't reach. WalletConnect Pay can.
Integrate once, and your users can spend across all of it from day one. The crypto-native rail removes the stack of intermediaries that make traditional cards expensive — which is why merchants pay up to 5x less than standard card processing fees.
TLDR? Your users get a better experience. Merchants get lower costs. You get revenue. The economics work for everyone.
Here's what that looks like in practice:
- Consistent payment flows, online and in-store. Your users get the same wallet-native checkout experience whether they're paying on an e-commerce site or at a physical terminal — no offramping, no switching apps, no friction.
- Immediate access to a global merchant network. One integration connects your wallet to a growing network of PSPs and merchants worldwide. No merchant relationships to build, no payment infrastructure to manage. Works alongside your existing card program, or replaces the need for one entirely.
- Revenue built in from day one. Wallets earn interchange-like revenue on every transaction. Users earn cashback. Both paid in $WCT — no extra setup required beyond signing T&Cs.
- Live now on Ethereum, Base, Optimism, Arbitrum, and Polygon, supporting USDC and EURC. Solana and more networks to follow.
How to Integrate
Already in the WalletConnect network? Upgrade your Wallet SDK — that's it. No new integration, no complex flows. Note: this upgrade is also a key requirement for maintaining certified wallet status.
New to the network? Three paths are available depending on your setup:
- WalletConnect Wallet SDK — the fastest route if you're starting fresh with WalletConnect
- Standalone WalletConnect Pay SDK — for wallets and fintech apps that prefer a standalone implementation
- API integration — for teams who prefer a direct API approach
Whichever path you take, going live follows the same three steps:
- Complete your integration using docs as your guide
- Test a successful payment flow
- Sign T&Cs and submit your payout address — both through the Dashboard
Estimated time to go live: most wallets are live in days.
Eligible for the integration incentive? Wallets with 400+ WalletConnect Network MAUs qualify for a one-time 40,000 WCT — complete integration and a successful payment flow before June 30. Details in your Dashboard.
