Comparison
A Blockonomics alternative — for sellers who want stablecoins
Blockonomics and StableDeliver agree on the thing that matters most: payments should go to a wallet you control, not into someone else's balance. If you're comparing us because you want self-custody, you've already got that from either of us.
The difference is what you're selling in. Blockonomics is Bitcoin-first, and Bitcoin moves against the dollar between the moment you quote a price and the moment the payment confirms. For a $49 plugin that's usually fine. For a seller who prices everything in dollars and doesn't want to think about exchange rates, a stablecoin removes that variable entirely — the amount the buyer sends is the amount you meant to charge.
| Bitcoin-first, self-custody | StableDeliver | |
|---|---|---|
| Custody | Non-custodial — payments go to your own wallet | Non-custodial — payments go to your own wallet |
| Primary assets | Bitcoin-first | USDT and USDC first, BTC also supported |
| Price stability for the buyer | BTC moves against the dollar between quote and payment | A stablecoin amount is the dollar amount |
| WooCommerce | Established plugin | Plugin available — see the WooCommerce guide |
| After payment | Marks the order paid; delivery is WooCommerce's job | Verifies on-chain, then releases the file, key or link itself |
| Best for | Sellers who want BTC direct to their own wallet | Sellers pricing in dollars who want stablecoins and hands-off delivery |

Where Blockonomics is the better choice
If Bitcoin is what you actually want to hold, use a Bitcoin-first gateway. Accepting USDT and converting to BTC afterwards adds a step and a spread for no benefit. The same applies if your buyers are Bitcoin people who'd rather not touch stablecoins, or if you want the smallest possible surface area — a plugin that marks an order paid and gets out of the way is a perfectly good design, and simpler than what we do.
We're also not the answer if you sell physical goods. Everything about our delivery step assumes the thing being sold is a file, a licence key or a link.
Why stablecoins change the support load
Most of the day-to-day pain in taking crypto isn't custody, it's ambiguity. With a volatile asset, a buyer who takes twenty minutes to pay sends an amount that no longer matches the invoice, and now someone has to decide whether that counts. With a stablecoin the amount is the amount. What's left is making sure it arrived on the right network — which is its own trap, since USDT exists on several chains and sending on the wrong one is the most common expensive mistake buyers make.
That's why the checkout states one network, shows the exact amount, and verifies the token contract rather than just the transfer. You can run the same checks by hand with the free payment verifier, or compare network costs with the fee tool.
FAQ
Is StableDeliver non-custodial too? Yes. The buyer pays your address directly. We never hold funds and can't move them.
Do you support Bitcoin? Yes, alongside USDT and USDC — but if BTC is your main asset, a Bitcoin-first tool will suit you better.
Does this work with WooCommerce? Yes — see WooCommerce crypto payments, and Easy Digital Downloads if that's your stack.
Can I use both? Yes. Offering BTC through one gateway and stablecoins through another is a reasonable setup, and neither of us prevents it.
Add stablecoin checkout to WooCommerce
Keep self-custody, price in dollars, and let the download or licence key release itself once the payment confirms on-chain.
