We’re excited to expand our partnership with Gaia, with all sales of the new Gaia AI Phone powered exclusively by Solana Pay, MoonPay’s crypto payments gateway on Shopify. MoonPay first partnered with Gaia in February 2025 to power token purchases and agent monetization on the Mother launchpad. This launch expands the collaboration into the Gaia ecosystem, uniting AI-powered hardware with crypto-native payments.
Now open for public pre-order, the Gaia AI phone gives users complete AI sovereignty, ensuring that your AI never leaves your device, while also running as a Gaia node that earns tokens and rewards. Built on Galaxy S25 Edge hardware, total production is planned at 7,000 units with initial availability limited. Customers can purchase the Gaia AI Phone with Solana Pay paying in USDC and USDT across Solana, Base and Ethereum, as well as Gaia’s own GAIA token. With Solana Pay, purchases settle instantly and at a lower cost than traditional payment rails.
“Choosing Solana Pay wasn’t just about payment processing - it was about partnering with a platform that understands our mission. The Gaia AI Phone puts users in complete control of their AI, and Solana Pay puts users in control of their transactions. Both represent a shift away from traditional gatekeepers toward user sovereignty and choice.” Coby, Gaia AI Phone Project Lead
The Gaia AI Phone ensures users own their data and intelligence, while Solana Pay allows merchants and customers alike own the way they transact.
