Instant delivery
The payment.confirmed webhook is the signal to deliver the purchase on your server.
Small orders
Solana, TRON and BSC are a good fit for purchases of a couple of dollars.
USDC and USDT
The two main stablecoins on one network — customers pay with whatever they have.
For game servers, a handy setup is orderId = player nickname plus item id: the webhook handler delivers the purchase immediately, with no manual checks.
