Why Store Owners Choose AshePay
- Your funds, your control - Payments land in your wallet the moment they confirm on-chain. No middleman, no frozen funds, no settlement delay.
- Zero platform fees - forever - Stripe takes 2.9%. PayPal takes 3.49%. AshePay takes 0%. On $10,000/month that's $290-$349 saved every month.
- No chargebacks - Blockchain transactions are final. Once confirmed, the payment is permanently yours. No dispute process, no reversal risk.
- No KYC for your customers - Customer picks a token, pays. No account, no forms, no ID. Checkout in under 60 seconds.
- Live Binance pricing - Crypto amounts calculated in real time from Binance spot data. CoinGecko kicks in automatically if Binance is unavailable. No API key needed.
Key Features
Zero Fees, Direct to Your Wallet
No percentage cut, no processing delay. The moment a transaction confirms on-chain, the funds are in your wallet - not held by an intermediary. Only blockchain gas applies, which is negligible on most modern chains.
QR Code Checkout
Clean QR code with one-click address copy, generated locally in the browser with no external service. Works with MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Phantom, and every mobile wallet. Configurable countdown timer keeps the session live.
Live Binance Prices
Real-time crypto amounts from Binance spot data. CoinGecko is used as an automatic fallback. No API key, no account, no monthly fees. A configurable markup buffer protects against price movement between quote and confirmation.
Multi-Wallet Rotation
Add multiple wallet addresses per chain. AshePay automatically picks a free address for each new order, preventing address reuse and payment confusion. Best practice for privacy and higher-volume stores.
Admin Bar Badge
Live pending payment counter in your WordPress toolbar. The badge updates in real time as payments arrive and clears when orders are fulfilled. Never miss an incoming transaction.
Custom RPC Endpoints
Ships with reliable public endpoints - no setup required. Replace them with your own Infura, Alchemy, or QuickNode endpoint for enterprise-grade reliability and higher rate limits.
How It Works
Customer Reaches the Payment Page
With Pro, the customer picks their preferred blockchain and token at checkout - ETH, SOL, BTC, BNB, and more. With the free version, the payment goes straight to your configured chain (Ethereum or Bitcoin). The exact crypto amount is calculated instantly using live Binance prices, with a small unique decimal offset so concurrent payments are always matched to the right order.
Instant "Pay Now" Email
The moment the order is placed, AshePay sends a payment instructions email with a large Pay Now → button at the top. One tap opens the payment page: QR code, wallet address, exact amount, and countdown timer - no hunting through email for a link.
Automatic Blockchain Monitoring
AshePay uses WP-Cron to scan the blockchain every minute. When a matching transaction is detected, the payment page updates live - no refresh needed. Your admin bar badge drops and a confirmation email goes to the customer automatically.
Order Completes Automatically
Once the required on-chain confirmations are reached, the WooCommerce order moves to "Processing." Your customer gets a confirmation email, and the funds are already in your wallet. Zero manual steps.
Supported Blockchains & Tokens
The free version supports Ethereum and Bitcoin with native tokens only (ETH and BTC). AshePay Pro activates all 8 chains simultaneously with all their tokens:
Tokens Supported Per Chain
- Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base - ETH (native), USDT (ERC-20), USDC (ERC-20)
- Polygon - POL (native), USDT, USDC
- BNB Chain - BNB (native), USDT (BEP-20), USDC (BEP-20)
- Solana - SOL (native), USDT (SPL), USDC (SPL)
- Tron - TRX (native), USDT (TRC-20)
- Bitcoin - BTC (native)
All tokens above require AshePay Pro. The free version supports Ethereum (ETH only) and Bitcoin (BTC only). Pre-configured tokens only - no custom tokens. For stores new to crypto, starting with USDT on Polygon or BNB Chain (Pro) covers the most practical use case: near-instant confirmations and sub-cent gas fees.
AshePay vs the Competition
Every WooCommerce crypto gateway looks similar on the surface. The architecture difference - custodial vs self-custodial - changes everything about who controls your money and what fees you pay:
| Feature | AshePay Ours | Coinbase Commerce | BitPay | NOWPayments |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Custodial model | Self-custodial | Custodial | Custodial | Custodial |
| Platform fee per transaction | 0% | ~1% | 1% | 0.5% |
| Permanent free plan | Yes, no expiry | Yes | No | Yes |
| Merchant account required | No | Yes (Coinbase) | Yes + KYC | Yes + API key |
| Merchant KYC / verification | None | Required | Required | Partial |
| Supported blockchains | 8 | 6 | 2 | 10+ |
| Native WooCommerce checkout | Yes, native | Partial | Off-site redirect | Partial |
| Funds held by third party | Never | Yes | Yes (converts to fiat) | Until withdrawal |
The core difference is custody.
AshePay is the only option in this comparison where payments go directly from the customer's wallet to your wallet. No third party ever holds, routes, or settles your funds. Coinbase Commerce, BitPay, and NOWPayments all custody your money at some point in the settlement process.
Perfect For
- Stores with international customers who hold crypto
- Digital products where chargeback risk is high
- High average order values where percentage fees hurt
- Crypto-adjacent businesses (NFTs, Web3, blockchain tools)

Do I need a crypto wallet to use AshePay?
Yes - you need a wallet receive address for each chain you want to accept. Any standard wallet works: MetaMask, Phantom, Trust Wallet, or a hardware wallet (Ledger, Trezor). Just paste the address into the plugin settings. No exchange account or business verification required.
Does AshePay hold my funds at any point?
No. Payments go directly from the customer's wallet to your wallet on the blockchain. AshePay only monitors the blockchain to detect incoming transactions - it never touches, routes, or holds your funds. The plugin has no access to your wallet private keys.
How long does payment detection take?
It depends on the blockchain. Fast chains - Solana, Polygon, BNB Chain, Base, Tron, and Arbitrum - confirm in seconds to under a minute. Ethereum typically takes 1-2 minutes. Bitcoin is the slowest: expect around 30-60 minutes for 3 confirmations. You can adjust the required confirmation count per chain in the settings.
What if the customer sends the wrong amount?
Payments within ±0.5% of the expected amount are automatically accepted. Larger underpayments are flagged as "underpaid" for manual review. Overpayments complete normally - you keep the full amount received.
What happens with crypto price volatility?
The crypto amount is calculated from live Binance prices at the moment the customer initiates payment. A configurable markup buffer (typically 1-2%) protects against price movement during the confirmation window. For stablecoin payments (USDT, USDC), volatility is not a factor - both are dollar-pegged. Most new stores start with USDT on Polygon or BNB Chain to eliminate this concern entirely.
Do I need to configure a cron job on my server?
No. AshePay uses WordPress's built-in WP-Cron - no server configuration needed. If your hosting provider disables WP-Cron, you can use a free external cron service to ping WordPress every minute instead.
Will it work with my theme and page builder?
Yes. AshePay is a native WooCommerce payment gateway - it doesn't modify your theme or override template files. Compatible with Elementor, Divi, Bricks, Kadence, Astra, Flatsome, and virtually every other theme and page builder.
Can I use it on multiple sites?
The Pro license covers 1 active installation. Need more sites? Contact us - multi-site licenses are available. The free version has no activation limits.
