Exodus Pay lets you spend USDC or Bitcoin directly from the self-custodial Exodus wallet app at Visa or Apple Pay merchants, no third-party custody.

Is Exodus Pay available everywhere?

Not yet—rolled out in Nebraska, Texas, Florida, New York, California. Nationwide push eyed for mid-April, regs pending.

Can you spend Bitcoin with Exodus Pay?

Yes, but it converts via stablecoin rails to merchants; self-custody stays intact, fees subsidized for now.
