How well Ethereum (ETH) fits online schools

As an extra option · Fit 40%

Enable it for customers who hold this coin, but pick another one as the main method.

Pros

Good for large amounts: deep liquidity and counterparties trust it.

Keep in mind

The coin’s price moves: set the price in USD and the amount is converted at the rate fixed when the invoice is created.

Network: Ethereum
Coins: ETH, USDT, USDC
Addresses: 0x…, per payment or per customer
Notifications: HMAC-signed webhooks

Students from any country

Crypto doesn’t depend on the payer’s bank or country.

Installments via invoices

Issue several invoices for parts of a course from the dashboard.

ETH and tokens together

One Ethereum address accepts both ETH and USDT/USDC — the customer picks the coin.

The fastest way to start is manual invoices: a manager creates an invoice in the dashboard or the Telegram bot and sends the student a link. As volume grows, connect the API to your platform.

ETH suits customers who received it as income or hold it long term and don’t want to swap into a stablecoin before paying.

Recommended coin set for online schools

To cover most customers, enable on the checkout page: USDT TRC-20, USDT ERC-20, USDT BEP-20. The customer picks the network, and every payment lands on one project balance.

One request to create a payment

The response contains the address, the exact amount and a link to a ready-made payment page. Status updates arrive via HMAC-signed webhooks.
