Accept payments

Accept Stellar (XLM) payments

Accept Stellar payments from any wallet, with fiat cards available alongside. U.CASH is non-custodial: funds settle directly to your wallet.

How Stellar payments work

Step 01

Create your checkout

Sign up at U.CASH Pay and create a checkout that accepts Stellar alongside cards on 35 networks.

Step 02

Share the link or embed

Send a Pay-Now link, drop in the universal embed, or call the API server-side.

Step 03

Customer pays in XLM

The payer chooses Stellar from any wallet. U.CASH watches the chain against your confirmation policy.

Step 04

Settle to your wallet

Once confirmed, XLM settles on-chain to the address you control, with a signed webhook.

Why accept Stellar

Merchants choose U.CASH to take XLM without giving up custody or control.

Non-custodial

XLM settles straight to your wallet. U.CASH routes and notifies, it never holds your funds.

Cards too

Offer fiat cards through your own merchant account in the same checkout, side by side with XLM.

White-label

Your logo, colors, and domain. The payment surface is yours; U.CASH is just the rails.

Low, transparent fees

A flat fee per transaction, no spreads, no hidden routing cuts. You see exactly what you pay.

Global by default

Anyone with a Stellar wallet can pay. No chargebacks, no geography holds.

Per-coin finality

You set what counts as paid. Tune the confirmation policy for XLM per store.

Before you start

Two things and you are ready. A wallet that can hold Stellar and a little XLM for gas on its chain, and the receiving address you want the output delivered to, which can be a raw address or a web3 name where the wallet resolves one. The preview shows the full picture before anything is signed: what leaves, what arrives, the fee, and the network cost. Nothing in the flow asks you to hand over keys; the wallet stays yours and signs only what you approved on screen.

Fees and settlement

Count the costs on one hand. On the platform side a flat 0.50% covers the swap, all-in, stated in the quote with no spread or routing cut behind the number. On the network side, gas in XLM, settling with about 5 sec blocks on Stellar Consensus Protocol, shown per leg before signature. Settlement runs on-chain to your chosen address at this asset's policy, 1 ledger (fast), a few extra for high value, and from confirmation onward the balance answers to your keys alone, spendable, sendable, and settled with no platform anywhere in the path.

Execution runs through an instant integration, which means the number you approved is the number that happens or the transaction reverts: swaps are atomic, with no half-settled state to unwind and no exposure window between legs. If a route cannot fill at your approved bounds it fails cleanly and you re-quote, which is the failure mode you want, cheap and loud rather than silent and expensive.

Accepting Stellar: FAQ

How fast do XLM payments settle?
Stellar ledgers close roughly every 5 seconds with fast finality, so payments typically settle within seconds.
What does it cost to accept XLM?
Stellar transaction fees are fractions of a cent, making it ideal for high-volume and small-value payments.
How fast do Stellar payments confirm at checkout?
~5 sec blocks per Stellar Consensus Protocol, with the confirmation policy stated per asset. The buyer watches the same status the checkout acts on.
Can I convert Stellar receipts automatically?
Yes: set auto-conversion into the settlement asset you keep, and the conversion executes at the payment-time rate. Hold or convert is a setting, changeable anytime.
