SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador, Dec. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bitget Wallet, the everyday finance app, has introduced a zero-fee USDC on-ramp with Alchemy Pay, broadening access to digital dollars across emerging markets. The program allows users to purchase USDC with 0% transaction fees, no network fees, competitive market-referenced FX rates, and one-click checkout through Apple Pay and Google Pay, offering a familiar experience for everyday users. The zero-fee structure is supported through Alchemy Pay’s stablecoin subsidy program, which is funded in collaboration with Coinbase to expand access to USDC in key growth markets. The feature is available directly through Bitget Wallet’s Buy Crypto portal.
The rollout spans Asia Pacific, Latin America and Africa, supporting global payment channels such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, Mastercard, and Visa. It also integrates a wide range of domestic rails and local bank transfers. Smaller-value purchases settle instantly, offering a more seamless experience for users who rely on frequent, everyday on-ramps.
“At Alchemy Pay, we are dedicated to building bridges that simplify and enhance the crypto experience for users worldwide. Our collaboration with Bitget Wallet on this USDC 0 Ramp Fee Campaign is a testament to that mission. By eliminating barriers to entry, we’re empowering more people to seamlessly access and utilize digital dollars. This initiative reflects our shared vision of a more open, efficient, and inclusive financial ecosystem,” said Ailona Tsik, CMO at Alchemy Pay.
Jamie Elkaleh, CMO of Bitget Wallet, added: “Stablecoins are increasingly used as a straightforward way to store and move value. Ensuring people can access USDC through familiar payment methods without added fees or complexity helps make these tools more relevant to everyday financial needs.” He noted that Bitget Wallet will continue expanding localized fiat-to-stablecoin pathways to support growing demand for digital dollars across high-adoption markets.
The zero-fee on-ramp builds on Bitget Wallet’s broader support for stablecoin accessibility. The wallet offers more than 80 payment methods to buy and sell crypto across over 100 markets, enables stablecoin-based gas fees on several major blockchains, and supports USDC usage across card payments in over 50 markets, QR transactions, bank transfers, and in-app spending. Users can also allocate USDC to yield-generating options through integrated DeFi protocols, with rates of up to 10% annually.
