When CoinsPaid is the better choice
- You run a casino on SoftSwiss and want a native integration.
- You process enterprise volumes and need a dedicated account manager.
- You want crypto-to-fiat conversion inside the same provider.
When UTOPAY is the better choice
- You want each payment forwarded on-chain to your own wallet immediately — nothing is left on a third-party balance.
- You want to test or launch without registration: one API call with a wallet address is enough.
- You also need card payments: buyers without crypto pay by card, Apple Pay, PayPal or Revolut and you still receive crypto.
- You run a high-risk business and need a payment flow without underwriting or rolling reserves.
Switching from CoinsPaid
The pattern is the same everywhere: create a payment, send the buyer to a payment page, confirm by a signed callback. Replace the create-payment call with POST /v1/crypto/payments, the payment URL with checkout_url and the signature check with x-utopay-signature (HMAC-SHA256). Step-by-step guide: accept crypto on a website. You can run both gateways side by side while you move.
