Payment notes

Hero Bullion's payment-methods page says: "Hero Bullion now allows customers to buy precious metals with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. We currently have an order maximum of $20,000 for crypto payments and offer a 2% discount. Hero Bullion uses BitPay to process cryptocurrency payments." The summary table on the same page gives "Crypto via BitPay — $.01 — $500,000 — 2%", which is a different maximum; we record both and suggest planning around the smaller one. The flow is BitPay's — choose "Crypto via BitPay", follow the on-screen instructions — and the coins and networks offered are whatever BitPay's checkout carries at the time, which as published includes USDC, USDT, DAI, PYUSD, USDP, GUSD and EURC across Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon and Solana. The 2% discount matches the dealer's cash-equivalent tiers (checks and wires get 4%), which tells you the crypto route is priced as a low-cost payment rather than a novelty. Shipping waits for confirmation and then takes one to three business days.

Refunds

Not documented for crypto specifically. Hero Bullion publishes an orders-and-returns policy and a market loss policy for cancelled orders; BitPay settles to the merchant in dollars, so any refund would be issued by the dealer rather than reversed on chain.

Stablecoin refunds are outbound payments a merchant chooses to send, not automatic reversals. There is no chargeback.

Hero Bullion is the American pattern in this category: a conventional dealer, a BitPay button, and a discount for using it. The stablecoins are there because BitPay puts them there.

What the dealer says

“Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies”, processed by BitPay, at 2% off card pricing. That is the whole statement, and it is enough to establish the route and the incentive but not the coin list. BitPay’s checkout currently offers USDC, USDT, DAI, PYUSD, USDP, GUSD and EURC on six networks; if BitPay changes that, Hero Bullion’s page will not, which is what the “may vary” badge means.

The two maximums

The page’s summary table says crypto orders can be up to $500,000; the paragraph beneath it says $20,000. Both are on the same page as we read it. For a bullion purchase the difference matters, so treat $20,000 as the working limit and ask before placing anything larger.

Why 2%

The dealer’s cash-equivalent methods — checks, money orders, wires — earn 4% off card pricing; crypto earns 2%. That places a BitPay payment where it belongs economically: cheaper for the dealer than a card, dearer than a wire, and final. On a $10,000 order the discount is $200, which is more than the gas on any network BitPay offers.

Sharps Pixley is the other BitPay dealer here and names USDC itself. Bitgild and Swiss Bullion are the crypto-native alternatives. The BitPay profile has the current list.

Verification

Payment availability may vary Verified September 2026

Crypto payment is confirmed, but the exact coin list is not fixed — it can depend on your country, the product, which checkout you reach, or which assets the merchant's payment gateway currently enables.

The merchant's own payment-methods page names BitPay, the discount and the limits, and says "Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies" without naming any stablecoin. The stablecoin and network lists are therefore BitPay's published ones, cited as the second source, and the status is "may vary" for that reason — the same treatment as CyberGhost and Vast.ai. We did not run a live checkout. The conflicting maximums ($20,000 in prose, $500,000 in the table) are on the same page and are recorded as found. Company location is from the site footer; the US-only shipping rule is from the shipping policy. BitPay identity verification is a possibility above BitPay's own thresholds, hence "sometimes".

  1. Added to directory

    Added after confirming "Crypto via BitPay" with a 2% discount on the dealer's own payment page. Coin list is BitPay's.

Limitations

  • United States delivery only. The shipping policy states that international orders are not accepted.
  • The coin and network list is BitPay's, not Hero Bullion's: the merchant names Bitcoin and "other cryptocurrencies" and nothing else.
  • The crypto order maximum is stated twice and differently on the same page: $500,000 in the summary table, $20,000 in the paragraph. Assume the lower figure until you have confirmed.
  • Orders ship only once the crypto payment is confirmed, "a few minutes to several hours", then within 1–3 business days.
