Gate Pay Brings Crypto Payments into Daily Life: From National QR to Global App Upgrade

Crypto Payments: Bridging Concept and Daily Life

Historically, cryptocurrencies have been viewed mainly as investment vehicles, not as practical payment solutions for everyday transactions. But with Web3 technology advancing rapidly, crypto payments are now breaking through previous limitations. Gate Pay’s National QR feature makes it possible to use crypto for purchases at local merchants, giving digital assets a tangible role as a consumer currency.

This functionality has seen widespread adoption in key markets like Vietnam and Brazil, connecting over 17 million merchants. Crypto assets are now integrated into everyday environments worldwide.

Localized Crypto Payments: Real-World, Cross-Border Adoption

Vietnam: Crypto Payments for Everyday Purchases

Gate Pay has fully integrated with VietQR, Vietnam’s official payment infrastructure, and major retailers like AEON now accept Gate Pay. Users simply scan a QR code to pay directly with stablecoins such as USDT and USDC (no currency conversion, no bank delays). For the first time, blockchain payments are available instantly to local consumers, positioning Vietnam as a leading market for crypto payment innovation.

Brazil: National Payment System Integrates Blockchain

Brazil’s adoption rates are even higher. Gate Pay’s integration with Pix—the central bank’s payment network—enables roughly 170 million users and 15 million merchants to accept crypto payments. Whether for shopping, bills, tuition, or daily spending, users can pay via QR code and settle instantly on-chain. This marks the entry of crypto payments into mainstream financial services across Latin America.

AI-Powered Automated Settlements

Gate Pay’s National QR is more than just a payment interface—it’s an AI-driven, intelligent settlement system. For each transaction, the platform automatically:

1. Identifies the user’s location and regulatory context
2. Compares exchange rates and selects the optimal payment route
3. Executes on-chain settlement and confirms transaction success

The system fully automates this process, eliminating delays and exchange rate issues common in traditional cross-border payments.

In terms of security, Gate Pay maintains Gate ecosystem standards, including:

• End-to-end encryption
• Real-time risk management
• Traceable blockchain records

Users benefit from protection comparable to that offered by banks when using crypto payments anywhere in the world.

Web3’s Global Payment Strategy

The launch of National QR demonstrates Gate Pay’s commitment to advancing a Web3 global payment network. Key priorities for future growth include:

1. Expanding into global markets

More countries will support National QR and local payment integrations, integrating crypto assets seamlessly into regional commerce.

1. Supporting multiple chains and more currencies

Additional stablecoins and cross-chain assets will boost user flexibility in payments.

1. Broadening real-world payment use cases

From travel and retail to online services, education, and even the public sector, crypto payments will become a seamless part of daily life.

These efforts position Gate Pay as more than a payment service—it’s a vital node in the Web3 financial infrastructure.

Crypto Payments: Driving Cultural Change

When you can use crypto to buy coffee in Hanoi or shop and pay bills in São Paulo, it’s not just technological progress—it’s a financial culture shift. Digital assets have evolved from investment products to global value carriers. Gate Pay bridges the gap, accelerating the mainstream adoption of crypto payments and transforming perceptions of money.
