What Are the Fees?

Binance Pay merchant fees are typically very low or even zero, depending on:

  • Transaction amount
  • Merchant type
  • Region
  • Whether auto-conversion is needed

Compared to traditional credit card merchant fees of 2%-3%, Binance Pay offers a significant rate advantage.

What Currency Do You Receive?

Merchants can set their currency preferences:

Direct crypto: Receive the cryptocurrency the customer pays with (USDT, BTC, etc.).

Auto-conversion: Some regions support automatic conversion of received crypto to fiat or a designated stablecoin, reducing price volatility risk.

Merchants who don't want to bear crypto price volatility should choose to receive USDT or other stablecoins.

Supported Tokens

Customers can pay with multiple cryptocurrencies: BTC, ETH, BNB, USDT, USDC, and more. Check Binance's official list for the complete supported token list.

Merchants don't need to set up each token individually — the system handles it automatically.

Merchant Dashboard

As a merchant, the management dashboard lets you:

  • View all transaction records
  • Manage payment settings
  • Download transaction reports
  • Set employee permissions
  • Generate payment codes for different scenarios

What Types of Merchants Is This For?

Cross-border e-commerce: Avoid the high fees and exchange rate losses of traditional cross-border payments.

Digital goods: Software, courses, designs, and other digital products are especially suited for crypto payments.

Crypto industry services: Mining equipment sales, trading education, and crypto-related businesses.

Physical stores: Restaurants, coffee shops, and other venues accepting crypto-friendly customers.

Important Notes

  1. Confirm your region allows merchants to accept cryptocurrency payments
  2. Plan for taxes — crypto income may be taxable
  3. Train staff on the payment collection process
  4. Maintain secure merchant account settings
  5. Reconcile regularly to ensure accurate transaction records

Binance Pay provides merchants with a low-cost, global payment channel. If your customer base includes crypto users, it's worth considering integration.
