BitPay Launches Full Solana Support with SOL, USDC, and USDT for Users and Merchants

BitPay, a top cryptocurrency payment processor, revealed in a recent press release that it now supports the Solana blockchain.

Users can buy, store, and spend Solana-based stablecoins like USDC and USDT while Merchants gain access to one of the largest and most active crypto ecosystems.

BitPay Adds Full Solana Support

BitPay now fully integrates with the Solana network, enabling users and merchants to use Solana through the BitPay Wallet and its merchant network.

Notably, stablecoins already make up nearly 40% of BitPay’s  2025 total payment volume. Solana’s low fees for stablecoin transfers could help that number grow even faster.

“Solana is not only home to one of crypto’s most passionate and active communities, but it’s also becoming a major network for stablecoins,” said Bill Zielke, CMO of BitPay.

He added that since 2021, BitPay has led the way in stablecoin payments, and with Solana support, users and merchants now have faster, lower-cost ways to send, spend, and receive digital assets.

What Users Can Do with Solana on BitPay

With Solana support in the BitPay Wallet, users can:

  • Spend Solana anywhere – Use SOL, USDC, or USDT to shop with BitPay merchants, buy gift cards from 250+ major brands, or pay bills directly in the app.
  • Buy Solana assets – Easily purchase SOL, USDC, USDT, and other Solana tokens at competitive rates.
  • Store securely – Keep Solana alongside Bitcoin, Ethereum, and more in BitPay’s self-custody multichain wallet.
  • Cash out quickly – Convert SOL or stablecoins directly to bank account, debit card, or PayPal.
  • Swap tokens easily – Exchange Solana coins or stablecoins for other supported cryptocurrencies.
  • Send and receive instantly – Enjoy fast, low-fee Solana transactions worldwide.

Solana Powers Seamless Payments and Everyday Commerce

Solana users can now pay bills and shop with BitPay merchants using wallets like Phantom, Solflare, and Backpack. Merchants gain access to a fast-growing crypto community with no extra setup. Solana-based payouts are planned, allowing businesses to benefit from faster, lower-cost transactions in future updates.

BitPay notes that Solana’s lightning-fast transactions, low fees, and developer-friendly design make it ideal for real-world crypto payments and app development. Its expanding ecosystem spans DeFi, NFTs, and now, with BitPay, everyday commerce.

Solana’s Rising Role in Global Payment Platforms

Solana’s speed and low fees are making it a go-to choice for payment platforms. It’s already part of Visa’s stablecoin settlement network, and Payments giant Fiserv also plans to launch a bank-friendly stablecoin on Solana soon.

Solana is also gaining ground in real-world crypto payments. PayPal’s “Pay with Crypto” now lets U.S. merchants accept over 100 cryptocurrencies, including Solana and Solana-based stablecoins.
