Best Cryptocurrency Payment Gateways for WooCommerce

Best Cryptocurrency Payment Gateways for WooCommerce

Accepting crypto on a WooCommerce store means lower transaction fees than card processors in most cases, faster settlement, and no chargebacks, since crypto payments aren’t reversible the way card payments are. It also opens the store to customers who specifically want to pay that way. None of that happens without a payment gateway that can talk to the blockchain and handle conversion, so here’s what to actually look at when picking one:

  • Which cryptocurrencies it supports
  • Whether you receive fiat, crypto, or your choice of either
  • The actual fee structure, not just the headline number
  • Security and compliance measures
  • How much setup and verification it requires

MyCryptoCheckout

MyCryptoCheckout (WordPress.org, active, v2.169, updated June 2026) sends payments directly to a wallet you control, no intermediary holding funds, no KYC verification. It supports 100+ cryptocurrencies and works with any wallet or exchange service you already use.

The free version caps out at 5 sales per month. Past that, paid licenses remove the cap; check the current tiers on the plugin’s own site since they’ve shifted from a flat single price to a tiered model.

CoinGate

CoinGate (active, v2.3.1) accepts Bitcoin plus 50+ other cryptocurrencies from any wallet or exchange, with payouts in fiat (USD/EUR/GBP) or crypto (BTC/USDT) and a flat 1% fee per transaction, no hidden costs. Setup requires creating a CoinGate account and identity verification.

Coinbase Commerce

Coinbase Commerce is still an active product (confirmed current as of this writing, though we couldn’t pull its current fee schedule directly, Coinbase blocks automated page fetches, so verify current fees on their site before committing). It’s backed by one of the more established names in crypto, supports Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, Dai, and USD Coin, and lets you receive payouts in fiat or crypto.

DePay

DePay (active on the WooCommerce marketplace, v3.0.7, 1,000+ active installs, 4.5/5 rating) accepts crypto and stablecoins across Ethereum, Polygon, Solana, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, and more, paid directly into your own Web3 wallet (MetaMask, Phantom, Coinbase Wallet, and 100+ others). It’s free to install, with a 1.5% transaction fee, not fee-free as sometimes described, and no monthly or setup charges on top of that.

Selling Services Alongside Crypto Payments

If your WooCommerce store sells services rather than physical products, and you want crypto as a payment option for them, Woo Sell Services (WBCOM Designs, active, v5.8.6, $59-499/yr or lifetime) turns WooCommerce into a service marketplace: custom order forms, built-in client messaging, file sharing, status tracking, and reviews. It works alongside any of the gateways above.

A Few Other WooCommerce Addons Worth Knowing

Woo Document Preview Pro (v1.3.6, $19-299/yr or lifetime) shows inline, modal, or tabbed previews of PDFs and other product documents right on the product page.

Woo Product Inquiry & Quote Pro (v1.3.1, $39-299/yr or lifetime) adds an inquiry/quote button to product pages so customers can ask for custom pricing instead of buying at list price.

If what you’re after is an infinite-scroll product grid instead, that’s not a Wbcom product despite older versions of this post saying so, see our Load More Products for WooCommerce post for the real (and free) plugin that does it.

Picking One

There’s no single right answer here: MyCryptoCheckout and CoinGate suit stores that want direct control over how funds are received, Coinbase Commerce trades some of that control for a more established brand, and DePay is the most flexible on which chains and tokens it’ll take. Compare fee structures against your actual transaction volume before committing to one.
