Cardano's ADA integrated for payments at 137 Spar supermarkets across Switzerland

On Thursday, the Cardano Foundation announced that 137 Spar supermarkets across Switzerland now accept ADA for grocery payments via the Open Crypto Pay system from DFX.swiss. The real-time solution enables direct transfers from ADA wallets, with merchants reportedly paying around two-thirds less in fees than on traditional card transactions. Spar had previously introduced nationwide crypto and stablecoin payments for 100 Swiss stores in August 2025 through Binance Pay and DFX.swiss, with plans to expand to 300 locations.
