Gate Pay Brings Crypto Payments to Everyday Life: A Global Leap from Vietnam to Brazil

The Global Surge in Crypto Payments

Cryptocurrency is evolving beyond a mere investment asset, becoming an accessible payment method in daily life. With Web3 technologies permeating traditional finance, Gate Pay has introduced the National QR feature, seamlessly bridging on-chain payments and local commercial networks.

This innovation is already live in Vietnam and Brazil, empowering users to pay with crypto at more than 17 million physical merchants worldwide—a milestone signaling the widespread adoption of crypto assets in everyday economics.

Comprehensive Integration with Local Payment Systems

Gate Pay’s approach is not to create an isolated payment ecosystem, but to deeply integrate with official payment networks in each country for true interoperability and practical utility.

Vietnam: On-Chain Payments for Everyday Transactions

Gate Pay has successfully connected with VietQR, Vietnam’s official payment platform, and partnered with leading retail brand AEON to showcase crypto payments. Users simply scan a QR code to pay with USDT or USDC—no need to convert to Vietnamese dong or deal with banking delays. From local shops to major malls, crypto payments are rapidly gaining traction in Vietnam, turning digital assets into practical payment tools beyond investment.

Brazil: Real-Time On-Chain Settlement

In Latin America, Gate Pay has integrated with Pix, the instant payment system launched by the Central Bank of Brazil, serving 170 million users and over 15 million merchants. Users can now shop, pay bills, or pay tuition with crypto directly through the familiar QR code interface. This development makes Web3 payments a part of everyday life.

AI-Powered Settlement: Maximizing Payment Efficiency

The National QR feature from Gate Pay is more than a payment gateway—it’s a cross-border payment system powered by an integrated AI engine. When users scan a QR code, the AI automatically:

• Identifies country and regulatory jurisdiction
• Calculates live exchange rates and selects the optimal payment route
• Automates on-chain settlement within seconds

Users can complete secure, precise payments nearly instantly—no manual currency switching or transfer delays. Gate Pay maintains Gate’s industry-leading security standards:

• Encrypted data transmission for information security
• Real-time risk monitoring to prevent suspicious activities
• Full on-chain transaction traceability and verification

Online or offline, users enjoy security on par with traditional financial institutions.

The Next Chapter for Crypto Payments

The launch of National QR is more than a feature update—it’s a pivotal step in Gate Pay’s comprehensive Web3 global strategy. This breakthrough brings blockchain technology into real-world economic systems and lays the foundation for Web3 adoption. Gate Pay will continue expanding worldwide:

• Expanding regional coverage: More countries joining the National QR payment ecosystem
• Strengthening multi-chain compatibility: Supporting leading stablecoins such as DAI and TUSD
• Broadening use cases: From retail and travel to education and public services

As these initiatives progress, Web3 payments will become global infrastructure, truly connecting the blockchain and traditional worlds.

Crypto Payments in Everyday Life

From coffee shops in Vietnam to department stores in Brazil, more users are embracing the convenience of crypto payments. This represents both a technological advancement and a transformation in financial practices. Gate Pay leads this shift, integrating blockchain accounts into daily routines and bringing crypto assets from the investment sphere into daily reality.
