Supported assets

Pick a payout asset, network and wallet. By default Apa accepts its full Safe List, so customers can pay with any of them. Apa is non-custodial and settles over public on-chain rails — it never holds funds.

The Safe List

Every merchant accepts the full Safe List out of the box — 17 assets across nine networks. It is a curated set of liquid, well-known assets; Apa does not expose every random token. Customers choose any of these at checkout, and you can restrict which ones you accept anytime in the dashboard.

Networks

The Safe List spans these nine networks. Each asset is tied to the network it settles on.

Direct vs routed

A payment is direct (0% Apa fee) when the customer pays the exact payout asset on the same network as your payout wallet. A different asset or network is routed (1.5% fee) into your payout asset automatically; the 1.5% fee is collected within the conversion route, so Apa never custodies the payment. The table below assumes a payout of USDC · Solana.

Quote before you build
GET /v1/routes/quote previews the route, expected output and fee for any pay asset against a payout wallet, so you can show the customer the exact amount up front.

Coming later

On the roadmap — not yet live:

  • Bitcoin L2s as pay networks.
  • More stablecoin payout and routing pairs.
