Accept the coins your customers actually hold
Five major chains plus dollar-pegged stablecoins, each settled straight to your own wallet.
Stablecoins and other ERC-20 tokens ride your Ethereum address. A USDT address is simply an ETH address.

We guide you through each one. No wallet yet? We help you get a free one. ETH, USDT and USDC take an extra step, because wallets like MetaMask don't show the key we need. Wallet names are trademarks of their owners.

Blockchain network fees are paid by the sender and not included. GriffNode is a flat plan fee with no per transaction charges; the estimate uses the smallest plan whose monthly limit covers your volume.

Questions merchants actually ask
Can GriffNode freeze or hold my funds?
No. GriffNode is non-custodial: every payment goes from your customer straight to an address in your own wallet. We never hold the money. Once funds have settled to your wallet, GriffNode does not hold or control them and cannot freeze or reverse them. Issuers of centrally administered tokens, including USDT and USDC, may be able to freeze token balances under their token contracts. Your private keys never leave your wallet.
What cryptocurrencies can I accept with GriffNode?
Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), Dogecoin (DOGE), and Dash (DASH) are supported, along with major ERC-20 tokens (USDT, USDC, DAI and more) paid to your Ethereum address. Every coin and token is sent directly to your own wallet, so we never hold or intermediate your funds.
How much does GriffNode charge per transaction?
Nothing. GriffNode takes no percentage of your sales and charges no per-transaction fees. Plans are flat monthly subscriptions starting free. Your customers pay only the blockchain network fee. No hidden charges, no chargebacks.
How quickly can I start accepting crypto payments?
Most merchants are live in under an hour. Sign up, paste your wallet's xPub, integrate one API call (or copy our checkout snippet), and you're accepting payments. No sales calls, no approval process.
Is it safe to share my xPub with GriffNode?
Absolutely. Your xPub only allows generating public receiving addresses, so it is impossible to access or spend funds with just an xPub. Your private keys always remain under your full control, stored only in your own wallet.
Can I switch between plans?
Yes, any time from your dashboard. An upgrade takes effect as soon as it is paid. A downgrade takes effect when your paid period ends, so you keep everything you already paid for.
Ready to start accepting crypto payments?
Every sale that runs through a card processor from today still costs 2.9%. Switching takes minutes.
