Stripe Enables USDC Stablecoin Payments Across Ethereum, Base, and Polygon Starting December 12

COINOTAG News reports that Stripe will launch stablecoin payments on December 12, enabling USDC settlements across major networks such as Ethereum, Base, and Polygon. The rollout targets merchants seeking faster, programmable dollars without leaving the crypto rails.

Stripe states that stablecoin payments are fully integrated into its optimized checkout suite, and existing integrations can operate without code changes. The approach minimizes disruption while expanding access to digital-dollar transactions for a broad merchant base.

All transactions are settled in USD to users’ existing payment balances, with a transaction fee of 1.5% of the USD value and no fixed fee. The arrangement positions Stripe as a scalable conduit between traditional commerce and stablecoins.
