Confirmations
When Dogecoin settlement ships, Plaidly will require 6 block confirmations before marking a payment confirmed. At ~1 minute per block this is approximately 6 minutes.
For low-value payments, you may accept confirming status (1 confirmation, ~1 minute) at your own risk.
Fees
Dogecoin fees are extremely low (typically 1 DOGE, currently under $0.20). This makes it practical for large volumes of small payments.
