Kucoin partners with e-commerce platform Refillarena to allow users to spend crypto-holdings on everyday essentials such as mobile recharge for popular brands such as Netflix and Xbox via Kucoin Pay, ESIM and gift cards.
summary
- Kucoin Pay is integrated with Refillarena to enable users to encrypt gift cards, ESIM and mobile top-ups.
- When using Kucoin Pay, you can get limited time discounts on specific Refillarena purchases.
According to a September 23 announcement, Kucoin Pay, the merchant payment solution for Crypto Exchange, is integrated with Refillarena’s global digital catalog. So, Kucoin users can pay for entertainment vouchers, mobile top-ups, and international data plans by scanning QR codes or using wallet-based transactions directly from the Kucoin Pay Interface.
Refillarena is a global e-commerce platform that supports both Fiat Payments and over 300 cryptocurrencies and delivers instantly on a wide range of digital products, including gift cards, ESIMs, and mobile charging in over 180 countries. Its catalogues range in categories such as gaming, entertainment, fashion, health, and more, with options for brands such as Amazon, Steam, Netflix, Nike, and Sephora.
In an accompanying statement, Refillarena CEO Ahmed Albadri said that collaboration with Kucoin is expected to provide “more value” to its customers.
“By integrating Kucoin Pay, Refillarena users can enjoy smoother crypto payments, stronger security and instant access to the global catalog.

For Kucoin, the latest move was another step towards creating cryptocurrency as “practical as cash” for Kucoin paid users. Since launching Kucoin Pay in January this year, Exchange has consistently expanded its use cases by partnering with a variety of brands and platforms to provide users with more ways to use encryption directly from their wallets.
Last week, the platform entered the Swiss market through a partnership with DFX.Swiss, one of the nation’s leading cryptocurrency service providers, to enable crypto payments at more than 100 stores operating under the SPAR brand.
As part of Refillarena Integration, Kucoin Pay will offer up to $10 15% discount on select items from September 23rd to October 23rd.
Over the past few months, Kucoin has allocated many of its resources to increase brand visibility through key partnerships and new products.
For example, earlier this month, Kucoin signed golf icon Adam Scott as its first global brand ambassador. Just a few weeks later, they announced a new cloud mining platform called Kumining, which allows users to mine Bitcoin (BTC), DogeCoin (Doge) and Litecoin (LTC) without having to buy or maintain hardware themselves.
In August, Kucoin made the headline after being selected as a lead crypto exchange for Thailand’s tokenized bond program.
