Bybit, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, announced a partnership with Mesh, the leading crypto payments network, enabling Bybit's 80 million users to use their Bybit balances to fund accounts and make payments across Mesh-powered platforms through Bybit Pay.

The integration removes the need for users to withdraw funds, manually convert assets, or move money between platforms before making a payment. When a Bybit user goes to top up an account or check out on a Mesh-powered platform, they can select Bybit Pay as a payment option and access the assets they already hold on Bybit. For businesses, the integration provides a direct connection to Bybit's global user base and enables them to accept payments from Bybit users through their existing Mesh integration.

As digital assets and stablecoins become increasingly integrated into everyday commerce, the ability to move value between the platforms where it is held and where it is needed is becoming an important part of payment infrastructure. For Mesh's customers, the partnership expands their access to one of the largest and most active user bases in crypto. For Bybit, it extends the utility of assets held on its platform to more payment experiences, supporting its broader focus on building a more connected global payments ecosystem.

"Bybit has built one of the most engaged communities in crypto," said Bam Azizi, CEO and Co-founder of Mesh. "People shouldn't have to move their money to use it. We bring the network to where the money already is."

"Bybit Pay is designed to remove the friction between holding digital assets and using them to pay. Users can pay directly from their Bybit balance, using the asset they already hold, while platforms receive the asset they want. Our partnership with Mesh brings this capability to more payment experiences and strengthens Bybit Pay's role in connecting digital assets with the broader payments ecosystem," said Sophie Chen, Head of Marketing, Bybit Card & Pay.

With Bybit Pay, businesses can tap into Bybit's global user base while benefiting from seamless payment experiences, quick settlement and infrastructure designed to support payments at scale. Its flexible architecture also enables programmable settlement options, giving businesses greater control over how and when funds are settled across markets.

The partnership reflects Bybit Pay's broader focus on strengthening its position across the global payments industry by connecting digital assets with more payment platforms and experiences. Through partnerships and integrations across the payments ecosystem, Bybit Pay is building new ways for businesses to serve crypto users while giving Bybit users greater utility for the assets they already hold.

Bybit Pay is available to businesses on Mesh today. Platforms already integrated with Mesh can enable it as a payment option through their existing Mesh integration.
