Dashboard · Payment Routing

Choose how received payments settle into your account.

By default every payment lands in your CoinPayments balance, where it stays until you withdraw it. From Payment Settings on the dashboard you can swap that default for automatic forwarding to an address — immediate, hourly, nightly, or weekly — and optionally convert into a different currency on the way in.

Quick Tip

Accept payment in any supported currency, then automatically convert it to a stablecoin on the way in. Your customers pay in whatever coin they hold while you settle in a dollar-pegged asset — sidestepping crypto volatility without narrowing who can check out. Pick the conversion target per currency when you choose a settlement mode.

Where to configure

One screen on the dashboard

Batched modes save on network fees

Hourly, Nightly, and Weekly modes consolidate multiple received payments into a single outbound transaction. You pay the network fee once per batch instead of once per payment — meaningful savings on UTXO chains and a small payout latency trade-off.

Disabling a currency

Stop accepting a coin entirely
Switch off coins you don't accept

You don't have to accept every coin. In Payment Settings, disable any currency you don't want to transact in — it then won't be offered to buyers at checkout or selectable when you create an invoice. A common step before going live: disable the LTCT test currency so it can never be picked for a real payment.
