MoonPay Drops $175M on Helio to supercharge crypto payments—Shopify, Discord, and beyond.

MoonPay has acquired Helio, a Solana-based crypto payment processor, in a reported $175 million deal, marking MoonPay’s biggest acquisition to date and a move beyond its core fiat-to-crypto on-ramp business. Helio’s checkout tools let merchants and platforms accept digital assets such as Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, and USDC, and it is already integrated with services including Shopify, Discord, and WooCommerce. The deal matters because it expands MoonPay’s payments infrastructure into merchant checkout and commerce tooling, giving the company a broader on-chain payments product for businesses, developers, and consumers. Helio was reported to support more than 6,000 merchants and to have processed over $1.5 billion in transactions, so the acquisition combines MoonPay’s distribution with an established crypto commerce network.
