Both checkouts buy the same prepaid labels. The split is who processes money, what identifier they require, and which networks you can use. Postage itself is the carrier’s price; our service fee is the line that changes with crypto.
Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay (Stripe)
Stripe can show Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and sometimes other wallets by region. You need a valid email because Stripe does. Checkout is usually the fastest if the wallet is already on the phone. We do not store full card numbers. Tor / onion payment limits are on the FAQ.
Choose this when you are at a laptop with Safari/Chrome, you want the label in the next minute, and you are fine with an email receipt. Details: card / Apple Pay hub.
Cryptocurrency
You pay an invoice from a wallet. Coins include BTC, BCH, DOGE, ETH, LTC, SOL, TRX, DASH, XMR, ZEC, USDC (Ethereum / ERC-20), USDC (Solana / SPL), USDT (Solana / SPL), and USDT (TRON / TRC-20). You get 8% off our service fee. Confirmation time depends on the chain. Crypto checkout works without JavaScript. Details: crypto shipping labels. Tor / onion notes: FAQ.

A simple rule
Card in hand, in a hurry → Stripe. Already hold crypto or prefer no-JS → invoice. Either way, quote on new shipment, save recovery credentials, print at 100%.
