PassimPay Featured in Cointelegraph Research Report 2026

Cointelegraph Research has published a report examining crypto payment infrastructure and the factors behind business adoption (the Merchant Acceptance Gap). PassimPay is included among the providers reviewed in the study, alongside an overview of how each approaches automated crypto acceptance and payouts.

According to the report, direct cryptocurrency use in e-commerce accounts for roughly 0.19% of global transaction volume, despite hundreds of millions of digital asset holders worldwide. Price volatility, fluctuating network fees, and integration complexity remain the primary hurdles for merchants.

PassimPay Architecture and Functionality as Described in the Report

The report notes that PassimPay operates as a custodial infrastructure provider: the service receives crypto on behalf of a merchant, optionally executes conversions, and routes funds to the designated wallet or account. The platform is available to eligible businesses in 122 countries.

According to the company-reported figures included in the report, PassimPay delivers 99.99% uptime and processes approximately 750,000 monthly transactions, exceeding $4 billion in cumulative volume across more than 530 active merchants.

The research outlines the platform's core technological capabilities:

• Asset and Network Support: Processing for over 74 cryptocurrencies (including BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC, XRP, SOL, TRX, and BNB) across 18+ blockchains.
• Integration Methods: Flexible setup via RESTful API (supporting native Host-to-Host checkout), ready-to-use CMS plugins, payment links, QR codes, static addresses, and invoices.
• Volatility Control: Automated conversion of incoming assets into stablecoins based on custom triggers, with a 0.2% conversion fee alongside processing fees starting at 0.5%.
• Mass Payout Tooling: Individual and scheduled transfers, Transaction Batching, and a Multisender tool that distributes funds to multiple recipient wallets via a single CSV upload.
• Fiat Settlement: EUR and USD bank account withdrawals for qualified merchants, subject to jurisdiction and compliance verification.

Choosing a Crypto Payment Gateway in 2026

The report shows how specialized B2B gateways reduce operational risk for merchants, bridging blockchain networks and traditional business operations. For businesses evaluating a crypto payment gateway in 2026, the practical criteria are asset coverage, integration options, volatility control and reliable fiat settlement rather than the headline processing fee alone.

PassimPay provides these as one platform: crypto payment acceptance across 74+ cryptocurrencies and 18+ blockchains, CMS plugins and API integration, automatic stablecoin conversion, mass payouts, and EUR or USD settlement for qualified merchants.
