Stripe rolls out stablecoin accounts in over 100 countries
Stablecoin demand is on the rise, with market capitalization surpassing $231 billion in May 2025
Stripe, a global payments platform, has introduced stablecoin-based accounts to clients in over 100 countries.
According to a May 7 announcement, the new feature will allow the platform's clients "to send, receive, and hold US-dollar stablecoin account balances, similar to how a traditional fiat bank account works."
The product's technical page shows that the new account feature will support Circle's $USDC and Bridge's USDB (USDB) stablecoins. Stripe acquired the Bridge platform in October 2024.
