## How Stablecoins Work

Stablecoins on Dodo Payments are implemented as a method-specific orchestration flow, not a generic on/off toggle. Stablecoin payments let customers pay using stablecoins such as **USDC**, **USDP**, and **USDG** from their preferred crypto wallet, while transactions are billed and settled in **USD** -- so you receive fiat currency without handling crypto volatility. Supported networks include Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, and Base depending on the stablecoin. The buyer selects a stablecoin, approves the transfer in their wallet, and returns to checkout with final status delivered by webhook. Fulfillment logic should trigger only on a terminal success state.

Core operational points:
- **Display by eligibility** so stablecoins appear only for valid country corridors (Global excluding India).
- **Handle asynchronous updates** and keep order state idempotent while on-chain confirmation settles.
- **Track method analytics** (attempt rate, success rate, abandonment, and retry outcomes) by network and market.

## Where It's Available

Stablecoins are available **globally (excluding India)**, are billed in **USD**, and have a minimum transaction amount of **$0.50**. Settlement is in **USD**, so merchants receive fiat regardless of the stablecoin or network the customer pays with. Subscriptions are not currently supported. Dodo Payments automatically shows stablecoins to eligible customers based on their country and currency -- no manual configuration needed.

Availability controls to keep accurate:
- **Country gating** to exclude unsupported regions such as India.
- **Network + currency mapping** across USDC, USDP, and USDG.
- **Fallback sequencing** so users still see a strong alternative if stablecoins are unavailable.

## Use Cases

Stablecoins should be positioned where they naturally increase buyer confidence and reduce checkout friction. Stablecoin payments are strong for global, crypto-native audiences who prefer paying from a wallet while merchants keep USD settlement and avoid volatility. They are most effective when merchants monitor method-level performance and continuously tune ranking rather than treating payment order as static.

Strong deployment patterns:
- **Global digital products** where customers span many countries and prefer crypto rails.
- **Segment-aware presentation** (new vs returning users, mobile vs desktop, low vs high ticket).
- **Recovery flows** that offer an immediate alternative when a stablecoin payment is abandoned.

## Integration with Dodo Payments

In Dodo Payments, stablecoins appear as a dedicated payment option in hosted checkout and can be controlled through method eligibility settings. The API type string for this method is **`stablecoins`**. This keeps backend logic explicit and avoids ambiguous mapping when multiple wallets, cards, and bank methods are active.

Implementation checklist:
- **Enable `stablecoins`** for valid regions and currencies.
- **Consume webhooks** for final on-chain success, failure, and reversal states.
- **Reconcile method-level settlements** in finance reporting and refund operations.

This approach makes stablecoins a measurable growth lever instead of a static payment checkbox.
