Overview
Start with the basics of how Stafiel works.
Stafiel helps merchants accept USDT and USDC payments through hosted checkout, embedded checkout experiences with QR-based payment details, and payment APIs. It is designed for merchants that want stablecoin payment collection without asking Stafiel to hold their merchant wallet private keys.

What Stafiel Does
Stafiel provides the payment layer between your checkout flow and supported blockchain payment rails. You create a checkout, show the customer a payment experience, and track the order as the payment is detected, confirmed, settled, or marked as an exception.
Merchants can use Stafiel to:
- Create checkout sessions for USDT or USDC payments.
- Send customers to a hosted checkout page.
- Embed payment experiences with the checkout snippet or widget.
- Let customers pay by scanning a QR code or copying the payment address.
- Track order, payment, settlement, invoice, receipt, refund, and event status.
Who It Is For
Stafiel is built for merchants, especially online businesses, that want to add stablecoin checkout to an existing sales flow. It can support direct checkout links, embedded payment areas, API-driven checkout creation, and operational workflows in the Merchant Dashboard.
The product is useful when your team needs:
- A stablecoin payment experience that can fit into an existing checkout.
- Clear order status instead of manually checking blockchain explorers.
- A way to separate testing activity from real payment activity.
- Merchant-controlled receiving wallets.
Wallet Boundary
Stafiel does not ask for your merchant wallet private keys. Your merchant wallet configuration determines where supported payment flows settle. Supported chains use contracts or on-chain programs to enforce payment and settlement behavior, but your merchant wallet remains your responsibility.
For operational details, see Wallet Settings and Security and Wallet Boundary.
