Global Breakthroughs in Crypto Payments
As cryptocurrencies continue to integrate into mainstream economies, Gate Pay has taken another major step forward. Gate recently introduced its new National QR feature, launching first in Vietnam and Brazil. This pioneering solution allows users to pay directly with crypto at over 17 million merchants supporting National QR systems. It brings Web3 applications from the blockchain into daily life. Gate Pay’s international expansion advances significantly, signaling the dawn of mainstream crypto asset spending.
Integrating With National Payment Systems
The standout feature of Gate Pay lies in its direct connection to major national financial networks, going beyond internal platform payments. This enables seamless integration of crypto payments into local payment infrastructures.
Vietnam: VietQR Integration Enables Full On-Chain Spending
Gate Pay partnered with AEON to integrate with Vietnam’s official payment network, VietQR. The system now covers 2 million merchants. Users can pay with stablecoins such as USDT and USDC by scanning a QR code—without converting to Vietnamese dong or going through intermediary exchanges, enabling instant payment with a single scan.
Brazil: Pix Integration Expands Latin America’s Largest Payment Market
In Brazil, Gate Pay has integrated with the Central Bank’s instant payment system, Pix. Since its launch in 2020, Pix has reached 15 million merchants and 170 million users, making it one of Brazil’s most widely used payment methods. Users can now pay directly with crypto on familiar QR interfaces for shopping, dining, bill payments, and even tuition—all with a single tap on Gate Pay.
Smart Settlement Enables Instant Payments
Gate Pay’s National QR feature is more than a payment channel—it’s an AI-powered automatic settlement system. When users scan a merchant’s QR code, the system:
- Automatically identifies the country and regulatory jurisdiction
- Calculates the optimal exchange rate in real time
- Selects the appropriate on-chain settlement channel
The entire process takes just seconds, delivering instant on-chain settlement. Gate Pay upholds Gate’s rigorous security standards, including:
- End-to-end encryption
- Multi-layer protection and real-time risk management
- Full traceability of transaction records
This ensures users can confidently spend crypto in both physical stores and online marketplaces.
Real-World Web3 Global Expansion
The launch of the National QR feature is more than just a payment upgrade—it’s a significant milestone in Gate’s All-in Web3 global strategy. By integrating crypto payments with existing national financial infrastructure, Gate Pay transforms blockchain from an investment tool into a practical solution for daily economic activity. Looking ahead, Gate will:
- Continue to expand National QR support across more countries and regions
- Enhance multi-chain compatibility and increase support for major stablecoins
- Grow crypto payment use cases in sectors like travel, retail, and education
As these initiatives advance, Gate Pay will serve as a critical bridge between traditional finance and the Web3 ecosystem, driving global adoption of crypto payments.
