PANews reported on December 3rd that according to The Block, the US cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase has integrated Apple Pay into its fiat-to-cryptocurrency payment solution Coinbase Onramp (formerly known as Coinbase Pay). This feature is designed to simplify the conversion process from fiat currency to cryptocurrency for users.

Coinbase Onramp is a software development kit (SDK) and API collection that allows developers to embed fiat-to-cryptocurrency payment functionality in mobile apps or web pages. It has been widely used in wallet tools such as Ethereum's Metamask, Rainbow, Solana's Phantom, and Coinbase Wallet. The tool supports more than 60 currencies, provides lightweight KYC verification, and supports free USDC transfers. Apple Pay integration was tested and launched to some users before Thanksgiving and is now being gradually promoted.
