The Coinbase Commerce alternative with 0% fees

Coinbase Commerce is now a discontinued legacy service: it was self-custodial — its Onchain Payment Protocol settled to a wallet you chose — but charged 1% of every sale and auto-converted payments to your settlement currency (typically USDC). Coinbase retired it on 31 March 2026 and unified it into Coinbase Business, a separate custodial, stablecoin-focused product. CRYPT.PE takes 0%, delivers the exact coin your customer sent, straight to your wallet, with no Coinbase account required.

commerce is gone — your three real options

crypt.pe vs legacy Commerce vs Coinbase Business

Coinbase retired Commerce on 31 March 2026 and the portal is no longer accessible. Its official successor, Coinbase Business, is a different product with a different custody model — so ex-Commerce merchants are really choosing between three models:

migration checklist (Commerce → anywhere)
  1. 01Export your Commerce payment history before support access lapses — the portal itself is already closed.
  2. 02Inventory your integration: legacy Charge API calls, webhook subscriptions and metadata fields you rely on.
  3. 03If you choose Coinbase Business: new account at coinbase.com/business, new CDP API keys (JWT bearer replaces X-CC-Api-Key), Checkouts API replaces Charges, statuses change (NEW/PENDING → ACTIVE/PROCESSING/COMPLETED).
  4. 04If you choose crypt.pe: claim your page, paste your wallet address, create an API key, POST /api/v1/payments — the orders + HMAC-webhook model maps 1:1 to how Commerce charges worked.
  5. 05Run one end-to-end test payment on the new rail before pointing production traffic at it.
