Free vs Pro
Understand the difference between the free and Pro versions of AshePay.
AshePay has two versions. The free version is a complete, permanent payment gateway - there is no trial period and no expiry. The Pro version adds multi-chain support and a few advanced features.

The key difference
With the free version, you can accept ETH and BTC. Customers can pay with either, but only with native coins - no stablecoins. All the core gateway features are included.
With Pro, all 8 blockchains are active at the same time. Your customer sees a chain selector at checkout and can pick whichever they prefer - and they can pay with stablecoins like USDT and USDC on any supported chain.
When does Pro pay for itself? If you process ,700+ per month, eliminating Stripe's 2.9% fee saves more than the annual Pro license cost. For most stores that sell digital products or serve an international audience, the break-even point arrives quickly.
