#StablecoinPayments

Visa has partnered with stablecoin infrastructure startup Bridge to launch stablecoin-linked Visa cards, enabling customers in Latin America to make everyday purchases with cryptocurrency. Initially available in Argentina, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, and Chile, the cards will also be introduced in Europe, Africa, and Asia in the near future. This initiative allows users to spend stablecoins at any merchant that accepts Visa. Bridge, acquired by Stripe earlier this year, will manage the backend processes, converting stablecoin balances into local currencies during transactions. ​
