Brief

In order to achieve the goal of onboarding the next billion users onchain, commerce in the context of crypto will play a critical role.

Coinbase has already experienced a ton of success in the peer-to-peer (P2P) payments space and the micro-transactions space (via Slice), however the next gap to solve for is in the commerce space.

With that said, the majority of brands and commerce activity occurs with brands and merchants that leverage Shopify as their underlying commerce platform and it’s important for Coinbase to offer an experience to allow merchants to accept crypto on their product offering in both an online and offline scenario.

In this brief, we will walkthrough what application and experience Coinbase should build for Shopify and their POS platform to allow any merchant to accept crypto as a payment offering.

Desired UX & Scope

Pay with Coinbase Wallet on Shopify POS

Context

For any merchant that uses Shopify POS, they should have the ability to allow customers to purchase goods in-store with their Coinbase wallet app.

UX

  1. Merchant can install the “Pay with Coinbase Wallet on POS” app on their Shopify POS device
    1. There will be an onboarding process for the merchant where they will need to specify their respective ETH address to receive funds from paying customers.
  2. When a customer approaches the cashier, the cashier can add any products they want to the native Shopify POS cart
  3. When the customer is ready to purchase, the cashier can tap on the “Pay with Coinbase Wallet” tile and an embedded Shopify app will launch
  4. When the app launches, it will summarize the items and transaction from the cart and showcase a QR code for the customer to scan with their mobile device
  5. When the customer scans the QR code, it will deep-link to the Coinbase mobile wallet where a specific view inside the Coinbase mobile wallet will appear that summarizes the transaction and prompt to complete the transaction
