As traditional retailers and service providers continue to adapt to the digital age, the dtcpay x Metro partnership showcases the ability of stablecoins to provide both flexibility and reliability in payment solutions.
Introduction
As the retail landscape continues to evolve, Metro is pioneering the integration of cutting-edge payment technology, ensuring it remains at the forefront of innovation. By embracing dtcpay’s secure and reliable stablecoin payment solutions, Metro is enhancing the shopping experience & creating more excitement while setting a new standard for the future of retail transactions.

For over six decades, Metro has been a cornerstone of Singapore’s retail scene, offering everything from high-end prestige beauty products and fashion to home essentials and electronics. With this exciting partnership, Metro is redefining convenience and accessibility by enabling customers to pay with stablecoins like USDT (Tether), USDC (USD Coin), WUSD (Worldwide USD), and the soon-to-be-supported FDUSD (First Digital USD).
Stablecoins, known for their stability and security, eliminate the volatility often associated with traditional cryptocurrencies, making them an ideal choice for everyday transactions. This integration allows Metro to cater to a tech-savvy, forward-thinking audience, while continuing to provide the same trusted service and quality that loyal customers have come to expect.
“At Metro, we’ve always been committed to innovation and delivering exceptional experiences for our customers. This partnership with dtcpay is a testament to our vision of staying ahead of the curve in a rapidly changing retail landscape. By integrating stablecoin payments, we’re not just embracing the future—we’re shaping it. This is a transformative moment for Metro, and we’re excited to lead the way in making digital assets a practical and everyday reality for our customers.”
