#StripeStablecoinAccounts

Stripe’s Stablecoin Financial Accounts, launched May 7, 2025, allow businesses in 101 countries to hold, send, and receive USD-pegged stablecoins (USDC and USDB) via fiat or crypto rails. Custodied by Stripe’s subsidiary Bridge, these accounts support seamless global transactions, addressing inflation and cross-border payment challenges. Businesses can fund balances, transfer to bank accounts or crypto wallets, and leverage Visa’s global card product for spending at 150 million merchants. This move, post-Stripe’s $1.1B Bridge acquisition, targets growing stablecoin demand (market cap $231B+), especially in developing economies, simplifying financial operations for multinational firms.
