A patient in the United States has reportedly paid a $5,000 dental bill using Shiba Inu (SHIB) through the cryptocurrency payment platform Zypto App. The announcement was made by Zypto in a recent X post. While the name of the dental clinic was not disclosed, the development underscores the increasing adoption of cryptocurrencies for everyday services. Zypto shared that the anonymous individual used its application to complete the transaction entirely in SHIB tokens. The company also noted that the service could be used to settle other bills, including American Express (AMEX), through its platform. How the Payment Was Processed The process of using Shiba Inu to pay for a service through Zypto is designed to be user-friendly. Within the app, the user navigates to the “Bill Payments” section, selects the appropriate service provider, in this case, a dental clinic, and chooses Shiba Inu as the preferred method of payment. One user from the US just paid a $5,000 bill to their dental clinic using Shiba Inu. Yes — you can literally pay for a nicer smile with Zypto.

Once submitted, Zypto converts the SHIB tokens into U.S. dollars and transfers the fiat equivalent to the service provider’s account. This process is completed within 48 hours. Zypto charges a flat processing fee of $5 along with an additional 3% of the transaction value. Users are not required to convert their crypto holdings to fiat beforehand; the conversion is automatically handled after the payment is confirmed.
