MV Capital | USDT on TRON Leads CoinsBee Payments as Stablecoin Retail Use Expands

Payment data shows USDT on the TRON network recorded nearly twice the transactions of Bitcoin over 90 days, with its share of platform activity rising 64 percent year over year

CoinsBee, a platform enabling cryptocurrency purchases of everyday goods, reported that USDT issued on the TRON network has become its leading onchain payment option. The finding comes from internal transaction records covering the period from June 4 to September 1, 2026.

During those 90 days, USDT on TRON completed approximately 1.8 times as many payments as Bitcoin and 1.9 times as many as Ethereum. Year-to-date figures for 2026 show the token-network pair accounting for 16.23 percent of all completed payments on the platform, up from 9.92 percent across the full year 2025. That change equals a 64 percent rise in relative share.

Higher Average Transaction Values on TRON

Within USDT activity alone, the TRC-20 version represented 44.6 percent of payment counts yet 64.5 percent of total turnover. The disparity indicates that individual purchases settled via TRON carried a higher average value than those routed through other networks supporting the same stablecoin.

CoinsBee operates in more than 180 countries and accepts over 200 cryptocurrencies for gift cards, prepaid cards, gaming credits and mobile top-ups drawn from a catalog of more than 5,000 global and local brands. The service counts more than 500,000 customers.

Retail Brands Favored by US Users

In the United States, the brands most frequently acquired with USDT on TRON during the review window included Amazon, Apple, AT&T, PlayStation, Uber, Macy’s, T-Mobile, Walmart, Sephora and DoorDash. Spending spanned retail, mobile services, gaming, transportation and food delivery.

The data set comprises only successfully paid and delivered orders. Payment counts track completed transactions rather than monetary volume, while turnover measures the corresponding purchase values. Share calculations compare 2026 year-to-date activity against full-year 2025 totals.

Joint Promotional Campaign Launched

CoinsBee and TRON DAO have begun a coordinated promotion running from September 21 through October 5, 2026. Eligible users of the CoinsBee mobile application may claim a 2 percent discount on one purchase settled with USDT on TRON by entering the code USDT-TRC and selecting that payment method. The offer is limited to a single use per customer and remains subject to stated terms.

USDT on TRON is already the most used onchain payment option on CoinsBee, and its share of payments has grown considerably over the past year. What is particularly interesting for us is that this activity translates into purchases across categories such as retail, mobile services, gaming and food delivery. Our payment data gives us a direct view into how people use stablecoins when they want to spend their assets.Iván Escamilla Rodriguez, Product and Growth Lead at CoinsBee
