Decentralized payment protocol Solana Pay has integrated its plugin with the e-commerce platform Shopify, beginning with USDC stablecoin.
The developers plan to add SOL and BONK cryptocurrencies as well, not to mention creating loyalty programs for customers.
Already, crypto companies like Helius, Mad Lads and MonkeDAO have expressed their intention to integrate Solana Pay into their Shopify stores.
It is open to owners of any Solana-oriented wallets. The average cost of using the blockchain for a transaction is just $0.00025, an added perk.
Shopify represents 10% of total US e-commerce, and the Solana ecosystem has 11.5 million active accounts.
Finally, Solana Foundation launched a physical store in a New York mall, offering the possibility of payment through Solana Pay, in the summer of 2022.
