Getting paid in crypto just got a lot more powerful with Coinbase Business

Today, Coinbase Business is expanding its payments suite so businesses can get paid with more flexibility, by more customers, including AI agents. 

Coinbase Business now serves more than 5,000 companies. And its payments acceptance suite — payment links, checkouts, and invoices — has already powered more than 100,000 payments across industries, from AI startups and auction houses to law firms and nonprofits. Funds settle instantly, fees stay low,² and chargebacks are off the table.³

Here's what's new.

A new kind of customer is here. AI agents are now transacting on the internet - buying digital services, shopping for their humans, or even operating completely autonomously. But most payment infrastructure wasn't built to accept them.

Coinbase Business is. The same checkouts you already use can now accept payments from AI agents via x402, an open standard for machine-to-machine payments. Funds settle instantly in USDC, land in your account, and are ready to earn rewards,⁴ or withdraw on demand.

To start accepting agent payments, visit our developer docs for step-by-step instructions.

USDT (Tether), the largest stablecoin by market capitalization and overall trading volume, is now supported across the full Coinbase Business payments suite. Accept USDT payments through links, checkouts, and invoices, giving your customers one more way to pay.¹ Funds automatically convert and settle in USDC to your Coinbase Business account. No need to manage multiple currencies.

Most businesses create a new payment link for every single customer. At a small scale that's manageable. At any real volume, it breaks down fast.

Now you create one link and reuse it as many times as you need with Coinbase Business. Share it by email, text, or QR code. Cap it at a set number of payments, pause it, or turn it off whenever you want. One link does the work of hundreds.

Let buyers choose what they pay, with guardrails you set. Set a minimum, a maximum, or leave it open. Whether you're collecting donations, tips, or billing for a service that varies by scope, pricing now works the way your business does.

Retyping the same product details across payment links, checkouts, and invoices creates unnecessary work and room for error.

Add what you sell to a product catalog once and reuse each item across every payment type. No repeated setup. No extra steps. 

Collect name, email, shipping address, and more alongside your payment. Everything you need to fulfill, ready when you need it.
