TRON-based USDT Dominates CoinsBee Payments Amid Rising Stablecoin Use
CoinsBee payment data reveals that USDT on TRON has become its most popular onchain payment option, recording nearly twice as many payments as Bitcoin and driving significant retail spending.
CoinsBee payment data shows USDT on TRON recorded nearly twice as many payments as Bitcoin over the past 90 days, while its share of all payments on CoinsBee increased by 64% compared with 2025.
Stuttgart, Germany, September 21, 2026 – Global crypto gift card platform CoinsBee today revealed that USDT (TRC-20) via the TRON network has emerged as its most popular onchain token and network payment option.
During the 90-day period concluding on September 1, 2026, USDT on TRON generated roughly 1.8 times the payment volume of Bitcoin and 1.9 times that of Ethereum on the CoinsBee platform.
Payment activity share has experienced substantial growth as well. In 2026 to date, USDT on TRON made up 16.23% of total CoinsBee payments, climbing from 9.92% throughout 2025—marking a 64% expansion in its total payment share.
This metrics offer a clear window into how cryptocurrency owners utilize their digital assets for day-to-day retail shopping alongside trading and investments. CoinsBee facilitates transactions for customers across over 180 nations, enabling them to acquire mobile top-ups, gaming credits, payment cards, and gift cards from upwards of 5,000 local and international brands using more than 200 different cryptocurrencies.
Furthermore, USDT on TRON drives a major portion of total USDT spending on the service. Throughout the trailing 90 days, the TRC20 token represented 44.6% of USDT payments on CoinsBee alongside 64.5% of total USDT turnover, pointing to a higher average purchase value for TRON-based USDT transactions compared to other supported networks.
Across the United States, popular brands acquired with USDT on TRON in this timeframe included Amazon, Apple, AT&T, PlayStation, Uber, Macy’s, T-Mobile, Walmart, Sephora, and DoorDash, spanning food delivery, transport, gaming, mobile connectivity, and retail sectors.
These insights stem directly from CoinsBee’s internal payment records. The 90-day review period spans June 4 through September 1, 2026, encompassing successfully finalized and delivered transactions categorized by network and cryptocurrency. Payment counts measure completed orders rather than transaction volume, whereas turnover reflects the monetary value of matching purchases on CoinsBee. Payment share evaluations contrast 2026 figures up to the present against full-year 2025 metrics, calculated as each specific token and network pairing’s proportion of all completed CoinsBee transactions during those intervals.
Building on this momentum, TRON DAO and CoinsBee are rolling out a collaborative campaign centered on leveraging USDT on TRON for everyday consumer buys.
Running from September 21 to October 5, 2026, CoinsBee will grant qualifying mobile app users a 2% discount on orders settled using USDT on TRON. Customers can apply the code USDT-TRC inside the CoinsBee app and choose USDT on TRON at checkout to trigger the discount. The promotion is restricted to a single use per person and is subject to conditions, with full eligibility guidelines and campaign rules hosted on the official CoinsBee website.
“USDT on TRON is already the most used onchain payment option on CoinsBee, and its share of payments has grown considerably over the past year,” shared Iván Escamilla Rodriguez, Product and Growth Lead at CoinsBee. “What is particularly interesting for us is that this activity translates into purchases across categories such as retail, mobile services, gaming and food delivery. Our payment data gives us a direct view into how people use stablecoins when they want to spend their assets.”
“Stablecoins become more useful when people can use them for products and services they already purchase,” noted Sam Elfarra, Community Spokesperson at TRON DAO. “TRON provides infrastructure for USDT transactions at global scale, and the collaboration with CoinsBee gives users another way to use USDT for everyday purchases.”
