  • Cardano’s ADA can now be used for grocery purchases at 137 Spar supermarkets across Switzerland and Liechtenstein through an integration with DFX.swiss.
  • The Open Crypto Pay system allows customers to scan a QR code and pay directly from their crypto wallets while merchants receive settlement in Swiss francs.
  • The collaboration between Cardano, DFX and BrickTowers aims to connect blockchain payment systems with traditional retail checkout infrastructure.

Cardano’s ADA token is now accepted for payments at Spar supermarkets across Switzerland after a new integration with crypto payments provider DFX.swiss.

The development enables shoppers to pay for groceries using ADA by scanning a QR code at the checkout and sending funds directly from their cryptocurrency wallets. Transactions are processed through the Open Crypto Pay standard developed by DFX.swiss, which facilitates in-store payments using digital assets.

Under the system, payments are executed directly from users’ wallets and processed in real time without requiring the transaction to pass through a centralised exchange. Although customers pay with cryptocurrency, Spar stores receive settlement in Swiss francs regardless of which digital asset is used in the transaction.

137 Spar Locations Support Crypto Checkout

A total of 137 Spar locations across Switzerland and neighbouring Liechtenstein are currently equipped to process payments using the Open Crypto Pay platform. The initiative was created through cooperation between Cardano, fintech firm DFX and blockchain infrastructure developer BrickTowers to integrate blockchain payment capabilities into retail checkout systems.

The collaboration aims to enable consumers to use cryptocurrency for everyday purchases while ensuring merchants can continue receiving payments through familiar financial systems. According to the companies involved, infrastructure providers such as DFX help connect blockchain networks with conventional payment frameworks used by retailers.

Cardano Foundation CEO Frederik Gregaard said the partnership marks “the beginning of a fundamental shift in how value moves through society”.
