Mesh Integrates Apple Pay for Crypto Transactions Settled in Stablecoins
Crypto payments startup Mesh unveiled Apple Pay integration at Token2049 in Dubai, enabling consumers to spend digital assets while merchants receive stablecoin settlements. The solution leverages Mesh’s SmartFunding technology to convert cryptocurrencies at checkout, eliminating direct crypto handling for retailers.
Brick-and-mortar stores and e-commerce platforms can now accept crypto payments through Apple Pay’s existing infrastructure without technical overhaul. The feature, slated for Q2 launch, positions crypto as a frictionless alternative to traditional payment rails. "When crypto payments achieve parity with fiat convenience, adoption becomes inevitable," the company stated.
