Why we cannot accept bank cards, what crypto actually is, and how to pay with it in a few simple steps.
Cryptocurrency is a fully digital form of money that is recorded and moved across a global, decentralized network called a blockchain, instead of through a bank. No bank or government owns or controls this network, so the geographic or sanctions-based restrictions that apply to regular banking simply do not apply to crypto.
There are two main types of crypto: 'stablecoins' like Tether (USDT), whose value is always pegged to 1 US dollar and does not fluctuate; and 'volatile' coins like Bitcoin or Solana, whose price changes constantly. We accept both at Soughat Shop. If you would rather avoid price swings, USDT is usually the simplest choice.
Crypto might sound like a niche, technical thing, but it really is not anymore. Popular banking apps like Revolut now support over 200 cryptocurrencies directly inside the same app you already use for everyday banking. Even PayPal has launched a 'Pay with Crypto' feature accepting more than 100 cryptocurrencies, and as of 2026, nearly 40% of US merchants now accept some form of crypto at checkout.
So when you pay Soughat Shop with crypto, you are using the exact same technology that major banks and financial platforms around the world are investing in — not some fringe or risky method.
As you may know, due to international banking sanctions, Iran's banking system is not connected to the global network. Because of this, no online store based inside Iran can directly use foreign bank payment gateways.
To solve this and remove borders entirely, we use blockchain technology (cryptocurrency). This approach not only works independently of the traditional banking system, but its fees are also typically far lower than an international bank wire (SWIFT).
Since we confirm the exact payment address directly with you, you can pay from almost any of the following:
A dedicated, beginner-friendly crypto wallet you install on your phone.
The most popular wallet for the Solana network — since most of our payments run on Solana, this is a great fit.
If you already have a Revolut account, it has a built-in section for buying and sending over 200 cryptocurrencies — no new app needed.
PayPal's 'Pay with Crypto' feature lets you pay directly from your crypto balance.
If you already have an exchange account, just use its 'Withdraw / Send' option to the address we provide.
Because we coordinate your payment directly and personally, we are not limited to one short fixed list — we accept nearly any reputable cryptocurrency. The most common ones our customers use:
Tether (USDT), USD Coin (USDC), PayPal USD (PYUSD)
Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Binance Coin (BNB), Tron (TRX), Litecoin (LTC), Dogecoin (DOGE), Toncoin (TON), Ripple (XRP), Cardano (ADA)
Do not see your preferred coin above? Just mention it when we coordinate payment — we can almost always find a way to accept it.
Network fees on modern chains like Solana are typically a tiny fraction of a cent — essentially negligible. Compare that to an international bank wire (SWIFT), which can cost $25 to $50 or more. USDT and other stablecoins on the Solana network benefit from these same low fees, which is exactly why we recommend that combination to our customers.
No. Because crypto runs on a global, borderless network, you can place an order and pay with crypto from anywhere — the US, Canada, Europe, Australia, or any other country in the world. There is no geographic restriction on payment.
Confirmation on the blockchain itself (for example, on Solana) usually takes a few seconds to a few minutes, far faster than a bank transfer that can take several business days. Once the transaction is confirmed on-chain, our team manually reviews and confirms your order, which typically takes a few hours or less.
Choose your product and enter the recipient's details in Iran. You will receive an order/invoice number.
Use the 'Contact on WhatsApp' button shown after checkout to send the pre-filled message, which includes your order number.
Our support team confirms your chosen currency and sends you the exact wallet address plus the correct network name.
From Trust Wallet, Phantom, Revolut, PayPal, or any exchange you use, send the amount to that exact address on that exact network.
As soon as the transaction is confirmed on-chain, we will let you know on WhatsApp and begin preparing and delivering your order.
In almost every exchange or app (Coinbase, Binance, Revolut, PayPal, etc.), look for a button labeled 'Send' or 'Withdraw'. Select the currency you want to send, copy and paste the address our team sent you exactly (rather than typing it manually, to avoid typos), enter the amount, and before confirming, double-check the address and, most importantly, the network.
Many cryptocurrencies, especially USDT, can be sent on several different networks (for example, Solana, Ethereum, or Tron). If you send on the wrong network, the funds may be permanently lost, and no one, not us and not the exchange, will be able to recover them. Always use exactly the network our team specifies on WhatsApp, and compare the network name in your app with what we told you before you hit send.
Yes, paying with crypto is one of the most secure payment methods in the world. No one gains access to your bank account, and your transaction is recorded immutably on the blockchain. We also offer a money-back guarantee. Money-Back Guarantee.
No. That is the entire point of using crypto — neither you nor the recipient in Iran needs an Iranian bank card or even a shared international bank account.
That is fine. The simplest path is opening a Revolut or PayPal account, which you likely already have, and using its built-in crypto section. No technical knowledge is required, and our support team is with you at every step.
For most customers, USDT on the Solana network is the best combination: no price volatility, near-zero network fees, and confirmation in a matter of seconds.
On-chain confirmation usually takes a few minutes, and our manual review takes a few hours. If it takes longer than that, follow up on the same WhatsApp conversation and send the transaction hash for faster tracking.
Coordinate with our support team in the same WhatsApp conversation; you can either send the difference separately or adjust the order amount accordingly.
The only fee involved is the blockchain network fee itself (typically negligible), which goes directly to the network, not to Soughat Shop. The price shown on the site is your final order total.
