Merchants will be able to accept crypto payments using Verifone

Merchants using Verifone's in-store and eCommerce Cloud Services platforms in the United States will be able to accept payments in cryptocurrencies. It's unclear which online and physical merchants will accept cryptocurrencies, but to give you an idea of Verifone's reach. Currently, the company operates 36 million point-of-sale devdices and has processed more than 10 billion transactions, generating over $350 billion in volume per year. Some of the companies that use Verifone their technology are 

Stephen Pair, CEO of BitPay, stated that It is not new for BitPay to help merchants with processing crypto transactions. Still, Verifone is by far the most significant partnership to date: "Verifone customers are requesting to have crypto payments. This has become the case as there are millions of crypto users today that have blockchain wallets on their phones that they want to leverage."

Crypto transactions will be as easy as using PayPal

Verifone's advanced payment engine, which will support crypto transactions, works just like the terminals that accept Venmo or PayPal payments. The only difference is that both physical and online merchants can now accept Bitcoin, Ethereum (ETH), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC), Dogecoin (DOGE) Litecoin (LTC), and the five stablecoins tied to the USD Gemini Dollar (GUSD), USD Coin (USDC), Pax Dollar (USDP), Maker DAO (DAI) and Binance USD (BUSD).

For merchants, accepting crypto payments through Verifone is the same as accepting any other payment method, as there is no additional risk. Even if a customer sends a cryptocurrency, the merchant will see it displayed in their local currency. The only thing merchants need to do is update their software. 

This is an important point because many of Verifone's merchants have expressed concerns about the volatility of cryptocurrencies. But unlike some other solutions, Verifone's merchants have to accept to settle transactions in US dollars. This is to avoid issues with a refund , but it also protects merchants against volatility.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
