The popular crypto payment system, which was first built on the Solana blockchain, has just expanded to support Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Layer 2 (L2) solutions.
This is a big deal for both merchants and customers. Now, anyone shopping at stores using Solana Pay can choose from a wider variety of payment options.
What Does This Mean for Merchants?
Merchants who use Solana Pay can now accept payments in BTC, ETH, and SOL, as well as other Layer 2 tokens. This means more people can shop with the crypto they know best. Plus, Solana Pay lets merchants handle all their crypto payments in one place, making it easier to manage transactions across different blockchains.
Merchants are already seeing the benefits. They’ve processed millions of dollars in crypto payments through Solana Pay, and now they can reach even more customers who are familiar with Bitcoin and Ethereum. This move helps bring more people into the Solana ecosystem without having to learn an entirely new system.

For customers, it means more options at checkout. Whether they hold Solana, Bitcoin, Ethereum, or a Layer 2 token, they can use their preferred cryptocurrency to pay for goods and services. This opens up a world of possibilities, especially for people who are more familiar with BTC or ETH.
Plus, with Solana’s fast transaction speeds and low fees, it’s a great option for people who want to get the most out of their crypto. Imagine shopping online and paying with Bitcoin, but without worrying about high fees or slow confirmation times. That’s exactly what Solana Pay offers. Speed and convenience in one package.
