Crypto Payment Platform Mesh announced that it has added Apple Pay support to enable Crypto payments! Here are the details.
The crypto payment initiative Mesh integrates Apple Pay to enable consumers to shop using digital assets, while merchants receive payments in stablecoins, bridging what the company calls the "last mile" gap in mainstream crypto adoption.
Mesh Adds Apple Pay Support to Enable Crypto Payments with Stablecoins
The new feature announced during the Token2049 conference in Dubai leverages Mesh's proprietary SmartFunding technology that converts crypto to stablecoins at the point of sale.
This makes it a seamless "plug-and-play" payment option accessible through the familiar interface of Apple Pay, eliminating the need for traders to process or convert Crypto directly.
Mesh CEO and co-founder Bam Azizi stated, "We believe that once Crypto payments become as seamless as fiat payments, there will be nothing left to stop the mass migration of global trade onto blockchain rails."
This feature, which allows both physical and online retailers to accept Crypto payments without the technical complexity or regulatory burden traditionally associated with the processing of digital assets, is expected to be released in the second quarter of 2025.
Stablecoins pegged to fiat values such as ( aim to make the process stable and scalable for businesses, especially as blockchain infrastructure continues to disrupt traditional payment rails.
This move places Mesh among the increasing number of fintech and crypto companies benefiting from stablecoins for trading. Stripe recently began testing stablecoin tools after acquiring Bridge, and PayPal launched its own USD-backed stablecoin last year.
Mesh raised 82 million dollars in early 2025 to accelerate the development and global expansion of its stablecoin-based payment network, which forms the foundation of the latest payment offerings.
