local context

on the ground in Tanzania

regulation snapshot

the Bank of Tanzania warns that crypto is not legal tender and banking channels are restricted, while officials have discussed frameworks — acceptance sits in a grey zone. Verify locally before relying on it.

adoption context

East African mobile-money fluency (M-Pesa Tanzania, Tigo Pesa) means digital-value habits are strong; P2P USDT fills the cross-border gap informally.

vs local rails

mobile money rules domestically in shillings; international inflows cost 4-8% — the gap stablecoins would close under a clear framework.

general information, not legal or tax advice — rules change; verify locally.

non-custodial · not legal advice

crypt.pe is a non-custodial tool, not a financial service in Tanzania — it never holds funds and makes no claims about local regulation. always follow the rules that apply to your business.

faq

frequently asked

01

How do businesses in Tanzania accept crypto payments?

Create a free page at crypt.pe, add wallet addresses you already own, and share your link or printed QR. Customers pay in Bitcoin, USDT, Ethereum and 16 more coins (19 total) — funds settle directly to your wallet, wherever you are in Tanzania.

02

What does it cost to accept crypto in Tanzania?

Transaction fees are 0% — forever. crypt.pe runs on flat subscription plans with a free tier, so nothing is skimmed from your revenue the way card processors take 2.9% or more.

03

Can I price in Tanzanian shilling (TZS)?

Yes. Invoices can be priced and displayed in Tanzanian shilling (TZS) — your customer sees the TZS amount while the exact crypto equivalent is locked at live market rates. Settlement arrives as crypto in your own wallet, with an on-chain receipt and CSV exports for your TZS bookkeeping. crypt.pe's own subscription plans are priced in USD.

04

Who holds the money?

You do — always. crypt.pe is non-custodial: payments move from the payer's wallet straight into yours on-chain. There is no intermediary account, no custodian, and no chargebacks.

05

Is crypt.pe available in Tanzania?

crypt.pe is a non-custodial tool that works anywhere with an internet connection and a crypto wallet. It is your responsibility to follow the rules that apply to your business locally — crypt.pe provides the payment tooling, not legal advice.

about crypt.pe

01

non-custodial by design

Payments settle wallet-to-wallet on-chain, straight from the payer to your own wallet. crypt.pe never holds, freezes or forwards funds — there is no platform balance and no withdrawal step, and every payment gets a verifiable on-chain receipt.

02

0% transaction fees

Plans are flat subscriptions with a free tier — compare that with the 1–2% charged by custodial processors. One page accepts Bitcoin, USDT, Ethereum, Solana and 19 coins across 13 networks, with simple pricing and no payout schedule.

03

tools merchants actually use

Exact-amount invoices with live tracking, product links, printable QR standees, HMAC-signed webhooks, CSV exports and a Stripe-style API — see the merchant guides or create your free page in about a minute.

04

how a payment works

You add wallet addresses you already own, share your crypt.pe link or QR code, and the customer pays from their own wallet. crypt.pe locks the amount at invoice time, watches the chain, matches the transaction and issues a receipt both sides can verify on a block explorer — software around the payment, never in the money flow.

05

available wherever wallet-to-wallet payments are permitted

Because settlement is on-chain to your own wallet, there is no bank partnership gating access and no account that can be closed over geography — local crypto rules still apply. Merchants use crypt.pe across India, the UAE, Nigeria, the Philippines, Brazil and 100+ other markets — see the country guides.

06

stablecoin-first, volatility optional

Accept USDT or USDC and a $100 invoice locks to a fixed token amount that targets a $1 peg — value movement between creation and payment stays minimal. Prefer BTC, ETH or SOL? Token amounts are locked at invoice time either way, and your dashboard records the USD value of every payment for clean bookkeeping. Questions? Start with the FAQ or payment help.
