CoinGate gives you the flexibility to decide how you want to receive cryptocurrency payments – whether to keep the original crypto or automatically convert it to another preferred currency. With the Currency Settings tab, you can configure this behavior for each of your merchant integrations.
Where to Find Currency Settings
-
Log in to your CoinGate business account.
-
Navigate to “Integrations” on the left-hand menu.
-
Choose the specific integration you'd like to adjust.
-
Go to the “Currency settings” tab at the top.
You can set different currency preferences for each integration listed under Merchant Tools, such as:
-
API Management
-
Payment Buttons
Set a Default Currency for All Crypto Payments
If you want to receive all cryptocurrency payments converted into a single currency (like USDC or EUR), simply use the dropdown under “Change all currencies”.
Example:
Select “EUR” here, and all supported cryptocurrencies will automatically be converted to EUR when a customer pays.
This is ideal for businesses that want to avoid holding crypto and prefer consistent fiat or stablecoin settlements.
Customize Individual Currency Behavior
Under “Individual currency settings”, you can fine-tune how you receive each asset.
For every supported crypto (e.g., BTC, ETH, USDT, LTC), you can choose to:
-
Keep the original currency (e.g., keep BTC if the shopper pays in BTC)
-
Convert it to another currency (e.g., auto-convert ETH to USDC)
There is no need to click “Save” – all selections are saved instantly when clicked.
Enabling or Disabling Specific Currencies
You’ll notice a purple toggle next to each currency. This controls whether that coin is available to your shoppers.
-
Enabled: Currency appears as a payment option on invoices.
-
Disabled: Customers won’t be able to use it for payments.
This is useful if you want to limit which assets your business accepts.
