Coinbase Commerce, a platform that helps merchants accept cryptocurrency payments, has partnered with WooCommerce, the most popular open source e-commerce platform in the world. This partnership will make it easier for WooCommerce merchants to accept crypto payments from their customers.
With Coinbase Commerce, WooCommerce merchants can accept Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, DAI, Ethereum, Litecoin, Dogecoin, or USD Coin. They can also get paid in crypto and access powerful tools for crypto integration and business analysis.
"We are always looking for new ways to get more people involved in the crypto economy," said Matt Watts, Coinbase Business Development. "WooCommerce already allows merchants all over the world to accept online payments — and now they’ll be able to accept payments in crypto as well. We look forward to building on our partnership with WooCommerce and finding even more ways to help customers and small businesses make crypto a part of their daily lives."
The partnership between Coinbase Commerce and WooCommerce is a major step forward in the adoption of cryptocurrency payments. It makes it easier for merchants to accept crypto, which could lead to increased adoption by consumers.
What does this mean for retailers?
This partnership means that WooCommerce merchants can now offer crypto payments to their customers. This could be a great way to attract new customers and increase sales. Additionally, merchants who accept crypto payments can benefit from the lower fees and faster processing times that crypto offers.
