Bitcoin has much wider adopt which is most likely why it is first. BTC has an average of 600k transactions per day vs XMR which averages about 30k per day. I'd probably make the one that would actually be used the most first as well.

Except they only support the main blockchain for BTC which is really pricey

They could add support for LTC, DOGE, Lightning for BTC, and XMR and they would get a lot more customers

And you’re also forgetting that XMR is a really good choice to support for a pro privacy / anonymity company. Having crypto support without XMR for that kind of products makes little sense
