Launch and scale your Mini App with MiniPay — Reach 7M+ Stablecoin Users

Web3 doesn’t need more MVPs, it needs adoption. And in MiniPay, apps aren’t just getting built, they’re being used.

With over 7 million users and growing traction across Africa, LATAM, and beyond, MiniPay is quietly becoming the go-to distribution layer for stablecoin-powered apps. Developers are scaling from idea to impact, without tokens, ads, or airdrops.

Mini Apps extend this momentum. These lightweight, mobile-first decentralized apps are listed directly inside the MiniPay wallet, giving builders a direct line to an active, stablecoin-ready user base.

How MiniPay Helps Web3 Apps Reach Millions of Stablecoin Users

Mini Apps in MiniPay are already powering daily transactions for users in 50+ countries.

Ecosystem traction:

  • 50M+ impressions served weekly across the ecosystem
  • Categories include gaming, utility payments, digital goods, entertainment, and commerce
  • Live in stablecoin-heavy markets like Nigeria, Ghana, Brazil, Kenya, the US, and EU

When you launch a Mini App, you inherit:

  • Instant distribution to a stablecoin-native audience
  • Local cash in/out infrastructure in 35+ currencies
  • UX that feels like Web2 – no seed phrases, no setup
  • Smart, contextual discovery based on user behavior

 It’s a powerful flywheel for app growth, without the usual friction of Web3 onboarding.

From Hackathon to Hypergrowth – Builder Case Studies

Some of MiniPay’s most successful Mini Apps started with no marketing budget and no tokens –  just a useful idea and the right distribution partner.

BitGifty, a bootstrapped stablecoin-powered local utility payment app built during Celo Camp, launched in MiniPay in 2024. Today, it has grown to  450,000+ active users, now processing thousands of transactions daily across 10+ countries.

"Minipay has been instrumental in BitGoifty achieving product-market fit. The ongoing support from the MiniPay team has also been a significant factor in our overall success, and we've greatly appreciated their assistance."
— Adeagbo Adedolapo, Founder, BitGifty

Real App Growth: Developer Case Studies in MiniPay

Proof of traction is public and builders are sharing it themselves:

  • BandoA local voucher and bill payment app. Grew from hundreds to tens of thousands of users in days
  • Topcasters by Polkamarkets Labs – A USDT-powered prediction game where users forecast real-world events. 2.2M+ predictions played, 138K+ users
  • Mdundo – One of Africa’s top music streaming platforms now offers music subscriptions for as low as $0.50, paid in stablecoins
  • Gamifly A gamified trivia and challenge app rewarding users in stablecoins. Scaling through MiniPay’s built-in visibility

👉 This isn’t speculative adoption, it’s usage at scale.

Why Web3 Developers Are Choosing MiniPay to Launch and Grow Apps

Launching a Mini App in MiniPay means meeting users where they already are: inside a wallet they trust, with stablecoins they use daily. MiniPay removes some of the biggest pain points for developers. You focus on building, and MiniPay handles the rest.

❌ No wallets to build
❌ No onboarding flows from scratch
