Pay with XRP
At Ez Web Company, we’re excited to offer XRP as a payment option for our services. XRP is a fast, secure, and low-cost cryptocurrency, making it an efficient way to settle payments. This is a simple guide to pay website services using XRP, including a compairson on crypto fees at several exchanges.
This is a comphrensiveguide to help clients pay with XRP. I’ve included multiple payment options, compared exchanges like Uphold to others with lower fees, explored Point of Sale (POS) and private transaction solutions. If you are new to XRP, have existing XRP, or want to purchase XRP and send it as payment this guide has information to explain the process. I have included information about the fees involved to purchase and send XRP using four popular crypto exchanges.
Be careful when transfering crypto. We are not responsible for lost XRP or fluncations in XRP values. If you have any questions, call Steu before getting started with your transaction.
If you already have XRP in your hard wallet, or software wallet, you can send the payment directly to Steu's XRP wallet address. This is the simplest and most cost-effective method since it avoids third-party fees.
Send the Payment
Amount: Send the XRP equivalent to [insert amount, e.g., "$100 USD"] at the current exchange rate. Check the latest rate at CoinMarketCap.
Steu’s XRP Wallet Address is rE52v3Hjh9PD2uBsG2EjEs5rgMtLGx2EZk

An exchange is used to purchase or sell crypto. Here’s a comparison of four common exchanges: Coinbase, Uphold, Kraken, and BitPay for buying and selling XRP, focusing on fees and ease of use:
Availability of XRP Trading
Coinbase:
Currently, Coinbase does not support buying or selling XRP for any users due to a suspension following regulatory issues with the SEC.
Uphold
Uphold supports XRP trading for all users, including those in the USA.
Kraken
Kraken allows XRP trading for non-US users but has suspended it for US residents due to regulatory restrictions.
BitPay
BitPay is primarily focused on Bitcoin transactions and does not support buying or selling XRP.
Note: Since location impacts availability (especially for US residents), I’ll assume you might be in the USA unless specified otherwise, but I’ll also cover non-US options for completeness.
Fees Comparison
Here’s how the fees stack up for platforms that support XRP.
Uphold (USA users)
Spread: Approximately 0.65% to 1.5% per transaction, depending on market conditions.
Withdrawal Fee: 2.99 XRP to transfer XRP to an external wallet.
No additional fees for debit card purchases, but the spread is the main cost factor.
Kraken (for non-US users only):
Maker-Taker Fees:
Maker fee: 0.16% (if you add liquidity to the order book).
Taker fee: 0.26% (if you take liquidity from the order book).
Instant Buy Fee: 1.5% for simpler purchases, which is higher than the maker-taker model.
Withdrawal fees vary but are typically lower than Uphold’s 2.99 XRP.
Coinbase: Not applicable (XRP trading unavailable).
BitPay: Not applicable (XRP trading unavailable).
Fee Summary:
For US residents, Uphold is the only option, with fees ranging from 0.65% to 1.5% spread + 2.99 XRP withdrawal.
For non-US users, Kraken offers the lowest fees at 0.16% to 0.26% using the maker-taker model, significantly cheaper than Uphold’s spread.
Ease of Use Comparison
Uphold
Known for its user-friendly interface, ideal for beginners.
Features a one-step trading process, allowing direct trades between assets without complex steps. It offers a free, simple mobile app for easy access.
Kraken (for non-US users):
Interface is more advanced, with detailed charting tools and order types (e.g., limit orders).
Better suited for experienced traders; may feel overwhelming for beginners.
Still offers a mobile app, but the focus is on functionality over simplicity.
Coinbase
While known for its beginner-friendly design, it’s irrelevant here since XRP isn’t supported.
BitPay
Focused on payment processing, not trading, so it’s not user-friendly for buying/selling XRP.
SUMMARY ON EXCHANGES
For US Residents
Best Option: Uphold

Neither is viable for XRP trading, regardless of location as of 01 March, 2025.

You get flexibility to buy XRP from trusted platforms. Kraken or Bitstamp save you money, while Uphold is beginner-friendly.
XRP transactions settle in 3-5 seconds with fees under a penny, making it a win-win for speed and affordability.
New to XRP?
Start with Uphold if you’re a beginner, or explore this XRP Beginner’s Guide for more info.
Point of Sale (POS) Apps:
While traditional POS apps (like those for in-person card payments) aren’t common for XRP, CoinGate serves a similar purpose online. For private transactions, such as a direct wallet transfer, it works like a POS by letting EZ Web Company, Steu, request a specific XRP amount from your wallet.
What about the best exchange?
Uphold is the only platform, currently, among the four that supports XRP trading in the USA.
Coinbase and BitPay: Neither is viable for XRP trading, regardless of location as of 01 March, 2025 due to regulation issues. Kranken is available to non-USA users.
Note: Cryptocurrency regulations can vary by state in the USA, so it’s a good idea to check the specific terms and availability of these platforms in your location.
What’s a destination tag?
It’s a unique code to identify your payment. Include it only if we’ve provided one.
How do I calculate the XRP amount?
Check CoinMarketCap to convert your payment (e.g., $100 USD) to XRP based on the current rate.
Can I pay with other cryptocurrencies?
Yes, via CoinGate you can pay with other coins, and we’ll receive XRP or fiat.

Frequently Asked Questions
Four questions about getting started with a website project.
What is the process to design a website?
There are three steps in this process of collaboration to design and publish your website.

How can you repair a website?
I do work with almost all types websites including all website platforms and independent websites.
For example Wordpress and Wix are two website platforms.
An independent website means software that is purchased by the website owner is used to construct the website. For example, Blocs and Rapidweaver are two of those software.
Some businesses have a Content Management System (CMS). Ialso work on those type of websites.
When do we see results in search engine listings?
If you are doing a new domain website that has not been published before, it will take a few months before the search engines recognize your content.
If you are using an existing domain and rebuilding the website on that domain, as a general rule, we should see SEO (Search Engine Optimization) results within six to ten weeks.
Any SEO campaign will always work work more efficiently when fresh, quality content is implemented using current search tech.

A website monger creates, publishes, and sustains websites. By focusing on these quality content, website tech, user experience, and common website metrics a website client will enhance their online presence - reputation.
