Visa has announced the expansion of stablecoin support by integrating PayPal USD (PYUSD), Euro Coin (EURC), and Global Dollar (USDG) into its settlement platform, effective July 31, 2025.
Integration of Stablecoins in Visa's Multi-Blockchain Settlement
As part of this initiative, Visa has integrated key assets from PayPal (PYUSD), Circle (EURC), and the Global Dollar (USDG), allowing settlements across Ethereum, Solana, Stellar, and Avalanche, significantly broadening the company's reach in the blockchain space.
Stablecoin Settlement Activity Exceeds $200 Million
With over $200 million in stablecoin settlement activity, Visa demonstrates strong interest from institutional players. This integration is seen as a step towards enabling real-time blockchain settlements across key chains.
Visa's History of Stablecoin Integration
Visa first ventured into stablecoin settlement by integrating USDC (USD Coin) in 2021, marking a pivotal moment in crypto payment innovations. The current expansion with PYUSD, EURC, and USDG further solidifies Visa's role in blockchain settlements. According to Rubail Birwadker from Visa, stablecoins can transform global money movement provided they remain scalable and interoperable.
Visa's move into this new phase of stablecoin integration showcases the company’s commitment to adapting to a rapidly evolving market and providing clients with more convenient payment solutions.
