Bitget Wallet has taken a significant step toward mainstream crypto adoption by integrating Solana Pay, bringing instant and affordable cryptocurrency payments to its massive user base of over 80 million people. This strategic move transforms the non-custodial wallet from a simple storage solution into a comprehensive payment platform that bridges the gap between digital assets and everyday commerce.
The integration allows users to make seamless transactions by scanning Solana Pay QR codes, supporting both physical retail locations and online merchants. Payments are processed using stablecoins like USDC and other Solana-based tokens, with settlements occurring directly from users’ wallets without intermediaries. The feature is particularly noteworthy for its upcoming compatibility with national QR code payment systems across Southeast Asia and Latin America, potentially opening doors to millions of new merchants and use cases.
According to Alvin Kan, COO of Bitget Wallet, the integration represents the company’s commitment to making cryptocurrency practical for daily use rather than just investment purposes. The wallet’s comprehensive ecosystem already supports 130+ blockchains and provides access to hundreds of decentralized exchanges, making it a versatile platform for both trading and spending digital assets. The Solana Pay feature joins Bitget Wallet’s expanding PayFi suite, which aims to make crypto commerce as simple as traditional payment methods.
The technical implementation was made possible through a partnership with Venta, a Solana-powered payments infrastructure provider that specializes in connecting wallets, merchants, and blockchain ecosystems. This collaboration exemplifies how open-source frameworks like Solana Pay can accelerate crypto adoption by providing scalable, low-cost payment rails that benefit both consumers and businesses. Bitget Wallet will showcase this integration at the upcoming Solana Summit 2025 in Da Nang, Vietnam, where they’ll demonstrate the technology’s real-world applications to developers and industry leaders.
