Our story

Blockchain is transforming online payments by enabling faster, cost-effective transactions without intermediaries. 

Helio’s mission is to make crypto payments accessible to all.

As a leading web3 payments platform, we now support over 6,000 merchants, developers, and millions of buyers with seamless crypto checkout for e-commerce, subscriptions, trading, and more. Our developer APIs power on-chain workflows across Solana, EVM & Bitcoin.

With crypto surpassing $3T in value, we connect businesses to millions of digital natives via Helio branded checkouts as well as white labelled solutions including Solana Pay for Shopify, Magic Eden, and DEX Screener trading solutions.

Founded in 2022 by Jim & Stijn, Helio joined MoonPay in 2024 but operates independently as an innovation-driven team. We believe in “builder culture”, shipping fast & enabling teams with autonomy
