The Future of Payments: Why Businesses Can't Ignore Crypto

Customers already hold crypto. Accepting it opens global sales without card fees, chargebacks or waiting days for settlement.

Millions of people hold cryptocurrency, and a growing share of them want to spend it. For a business, that is a new group of customers who can pay from anywhere in the world without a bank card.

Payments that settle in minutes

A crypto payment is final once the network confirms it. Payitgo counts a Tron payment as final after 20 blocks (about a minute), an Ethereum one after 12 blocks (about 3 minutes) and a Bitcoin one after 3 blocks (30 to 60 minutes). With direct settlement, the money is then forwarded to your own wallet within minutes. There is no multi-day settlement window and no rolling reserve.

Because payments are pushed by the customer rather than pulled from a card, there are no chargebacks. Refunds are your decision, and you make them from your own wallet to the address the customer paid from.

Stablecoins remove the volatility worry

Not every customer wants to spend BTC. Stablecoins like USDT and USDC track the US dollar, so the price you set in dollars is what arrives, before fees.

With Payitgo you choose which coins and networks to accept: USDT and USDC on Tron, Ethereum and BNB Smart Chain, alongside TRX, ETH, BNB, BTC, LTC, DOGE and XRP.

Getting started

Create an account with your name, business name and email, add a payout address for each coin you want to receive, and try everything in test mode, where you simulate what the customer pays and no coins move. Then share a payment link, or create payments from your server with one of the libraries.
