Crypto payments have moved beyond experimentation. Today, payment service providers (PSPs) and merchants are actively looking for production-ready onchain payment rails that behave like modern payment methods, fast, predictable, compliant, and easy to integrate.

WalletConnect Pay makes it simple to accept crypto payments on Arbitrum, one of the most widely adopted Ethereum Layer 2 networks. Together, WalletConnect Pay and Arbitrum enable global crypto and stablecoin payments that fit directly into existing PSP stacks, without introducing new operational complexity.

Why Arbitrum Is Built for Payments

Arbitrum has become a core settlement layer for crypto payments. Built to extend Ethereum’s security while dramatically reducing transaction costs and confirmation times, Arbitrum is designed for real-world usage, not experimental workloads.

The network has already processed billions of transactions in production, with millions of transactions occurring daily across payments, transfers, and commerce. This sustained throughput is critical for payments, where consistency, uptime, and predictable behavior matter as much as speed.

Arbitrum’s financial depth further reinforces its role as a payments infrastructure:

For merchants and PSPs, these metrics translate into payment rails that can support high-frequency checkout flows without congestion or fee volatility.

Arbitrum offers:

Increasingly, Arbitrum has become the invisible payments layer behind modern crypto commerce, powering money movement while staying out of the user experience.

The Challenge with Accepting Crypto Payments

Despite growing user demand, many businesses still struggle to accept crypto payments at scale.

Common challenges include:

For most PSPs and merchants, crypto adoption has been delayed not by lack of interest but by lack of payment-grade solutions.

How WalletConnect Pay Works on Arbitrum

WalletConnect Pay removes this complexity.

It is a complete, end-to-end crypto payment solution that makes wallets compatible with existing PSP payment flows. Supporting Arbitrum through WalletConnect Pay does not require new routing logic, new reconciliation systems, or crypto-specific operational changes.

With a single, APM-style integration, PSPs and merchants can:

From the user’s perspective, the experience is simple: they pay with the wallet they already trust, using the asset they prefer. From the merchant’s perspective, the payment behaves like any other modern alternative payment method.

Built for PSP Reality, Not Crypto Experiments

High transaction volume alone is not enough for payments. What matters is whether a network behaves reliably under real-world conditions.

Arbitrum’s sustained usage, billions of lifetime transactions, millions daily, and billions of dollars in stablecoin liquidity, demonstrate production-grade behavior suitable for PSP and merchant requirements.

WalletConnect Pay is built specifically for this reality.

On Arbitrum, PSPs and merchants benefit from:

Crypto payments should feel like payments, not infrastructure projects. WalletConnect Pay ensures Arbitrum payments integrate cleanly into the systems businesses already use today.

Unlocking Wallet-Agnostic, Global Payments

Arbitrum’s scale is matched by its reach. The network supports a large and active wallet ecosystem, making it an ideal environment for wallet-native payments.

When combined with the WalletConnect network, connecting 700+ wallets and hundreds of millions of users, Arbitrum enables truly wallet-agnostic, global crypto payments.

Merchants can:

Users pay with the wallet they already trust. Merchants receive payments through systems they already rely on. The complexity stays in the infrastructure, not the experience.
