Stripe Adds USDC Subscription Billing on Base and Polygon

The private preview lets U.S. businesses settle crypto-paid subscriptions in fiat through Stripe’s dashboard.

Overview

  • A new smart contract lets customers save a wallet and authorize recurring debits without re-signing each transaction.
  • USDC subscription payments run on Base and Polygon and reconcile to fiat alongside card and bank payments in the Stripe Dashboard.
  • The feature supports more than 400 wallets and is currently limited to U.S.-based businesses in private preview.
  • Preview limits cap transactions at $10,000 per charge and $100,000 per month.
  • Early users such as Shadeform and Higgsfield report roughly 20% of volume shifting to stablecoins with lower fees and faster settlement, as Stripe also advances Bridge’s OCC charter application and its Open Issuance initiative.
