CryptoProcessing for eCommerce businesses

It depends on where you live, but the answer will be ‘yes’ for the overwhelming majority of the world. You can find a list of jurisdictions here. CryptoProcessing is licensed in Estonia and is compliant with KYB and AML regulation, however, we don’t operate in every jurisdiction. If you have any doubts, contact customer support and get an answer with up-to-date information for your region.

You do not need a special business license to accept crypto through CryptoProcessing. Our platform is licensed in Estonia and compliant with KYB/AML regulations, which means we handle the regulatory requirements for processing crypto payments. You can start accepting payments without obtaining any new licenses yourself.

Notably, this holds true for companies that don’t directly control the funds of buyers and sellers on their behalf (custodial services, exchanges, transfer services). In some jurisdictions, various forms of custodial services can trigger licensing requirements. So, you typically don’t need a license to accept cryptocurrency, but the nature of your service has an influence on this.

We use advanced security measures to protect transactions and user accounts. For example, we monitor the blockchain to verify payments, ensuring they’re authentic and confirmed. Our platform employs encryption and fraud detection systems to safeguard your funds. Digital assets are secured with multiple layers of protection and all accounts support 2FA for extra piece of mind. In short, payments are safe from the moment a customer sends them until the funds reach your wallet or bank account.

CryptoProcessing charges low fees for each transaction – typically around 1.5% of the payment amount, which is much lower than credit card processing fees that can run 3-4% per transaction. There are no hidden fees or monthly charges. Because cryptocurrency transactions are irreversible, you won’t have to worry about paying any fraudulent chargeback fees or the need for rolling reserves often imposed by processors. Crypto is very cost-effective for most eCommerce businesses specifically due to its global nature and low fees.

Absolutely. We provide both manual and automatic conversions from crypto to fiat currency (USD, EUR, etc.), swiftly transferring funds directly into your bank account via SWIFT or SEPA. You can charge customers in any currency and still let them pay in crypto – our system will instantly convert their crypto payment into the equivalent fiat amount for you.

You can get paid in a familiar currency and are protected from cryptocurrency price volatility. If you want to hold crypto instead, you also have that option – do what works best for your business.

We offer ready-made integration modules (plugins/extensions) for any popular eCommerce platform. This includes Shopify, WooCommerce (WordPress), Magento, and others. If your online store runs on a major platform, chances are we have a plug-and-play crypto payment extension for it. These modules make it easy to add crypto payments to your site without the need for custom development. However, we also help create custom integrations for complex in-house systems – so, talk to an expert to find the best fit for your needs.

After going through the KYB process, you’ll get a link to install and activate the plugin, then enter your CryptoProcessing API keys or account details as prompted. This will be a bit different for each platform, you can find detailed instructions in our product documentation. In most cases, it’s a matter of a few simple steps to set up. And if you need help, our support team is ready 24/7 to assist so that you can get the crypto eCommerce integration running smoothly.

Yes, they do. With a single CryptoProcessing integration, you can process 20+ digital currencies at checkout. It’s also customizable, so you can accept bitcoin payments on your website or disable them and enable only stablecoins instead. Your customers can choose to pay with what they find most convenient, and you can automatically receive the currency of your choice in return. The checkout will present various crypto options, and the payment process works the same for all supported coins. Offering multiple crypto choices ensures convenience for your customers, so we always recommend accepting at least the top 5 most popular coins.

Our platform handles all necessary KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) procedures on the backend. As a merchant, you don’t have to worry about conducting KYC on your buyers beyond what’s already legally required in your region – we take care of transaction monitoring and compliance checks for payments. We also provide accounting documentation to help ensure that every payment meets regulatory standards, keeping your business safe from issues.

Many businesses can integrate and start accepting crypto payments in a matter of days. However, the onboarding process and KYB verification can take longer. The real answer really depends on your region, exact needs, and the payment infrastructure of your eCommerce platform. If you’re using a standard platform with our plugin, you can go live quickly with some basic setup and your account credentials. With a custom integration via API, the process is more tailored and will involve our tech team – we’ll work to help set you up as quickly as possible, usually within a few business days.

CryptoProcessing supports 20+ major cryptocurrencies, and we regularly add new coins and tokens that have stable demand. Our data shows that over 90% of payments come from the top currencies – Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), and especially stablecoins like USDC.  However, even for more niche crypto, you can offer your customers their preferred payment option and just automatically convert it on the back-end. For a full list of supported digital currencies, check out our documentation!

You can easily price your products on the storefront or invoices in a fiat currency (say, $100 USD) and then process the payment in crypto. When your customer chooses to pay in cryptocurrency, our system will calculate the exact crypto amount needed based on the current exchange rate. They’ll pay that amount in crypto, and you’ll receive the equivalent value in your preferred currency. If you want to get fiat instead, we’ll convert that crypto payment and transfer it to your bank account via SWIFT or SEPA. This setup gives you the flexibility to advertise prices in the most convenient currency while accepting crypto from customers when you need to.

As of 2025 over 659 million people hold crypto globally, and the number of businesses accepting crypto is steadily growing. Customers – especially younger, tech-savvy shoppers – appreciate stores that offer cryptocurrency as a payment option. By enabling crypto payments, you can get access to a new global audience at best, and offer your existing customer base a new payment option at worst.

Major brands and thousands of merchants on platforms like Shopify are already processing crypto, reflecting the growing consumer interest in paying with coins and tokens. Is your business ready to open its storefront for people with crypto?
