From crypto payments to payment infrastructure: How ForumPay is evolving

Crypto and stablecoins have become working tools for moving money. Businesses now use them to settle invoices, pay suppliers, fund payouts, and hold balances between markets. They also take payments at checkout. Customer demand is a big part of the reason. PayPal and the National Cryptocurrency Association conducted a survey in 2026. It showed 88% of U.S. merchants said customers had asked about paying with crypto. 69% said those requests come in at least monthly. Businesses that accept crypto payments now expect more from their providers. Payment platforms and ISOs that serve these businesses have similar expectations.
