#StripeStablecoinAccounts : Stripe Launches Stablecoin-Based Financial Accounts in 101 Countries

Stripe, the global payment technology company, announced the launch of Stablecoin Financial Accounts, allowing businesses in 101 countries to store, receive, and send funds in stablecoins such as USDC and USDB. This move expands access to digital finance, especially in countries with unstable currencies.

With these accounts, companies can receive payments through both crypto and traditional fiat channels like ACH and SEPA, as well as make stablecoin transfers globally. This initiative is the result of Stripe's acquisition of the stablecoin platform Bridge for $1.1 billion in early 2025.

Stripe CEO Patrick Collison referred to stablecoins and AI as "two great forces" that are transforming the economic landscape. This launch is expected to accelerate the adoption of stablecoins among businesses, providing faster and more efficient payment solutions.
