Stablecoin payments have entered the production era. They now account for $200 billion in monthly payment flows over the Fireblocks Network. Companies are no longer experimenting; they’re scaling execution, and the need to expand stablecoin infrastructure has never been more urgent.
But financial institutions that want to enable stablecoin payments are running into the same problems. They have to solve for a high level of integration complexity, fragmented liquidity, and inconsistent compliance. This creates regulatory risk and operational chaos.
The real cost of these challenges is missed revenue. When new corridors, stablecoins, or payment models appear, companies without the agility to expand quickly lose ground to those who can.
That’s why we’re introducing the Fireblocks Network for Payments: a neutral and active network of stablecoin on/off-ramps, OTC Providers, banks and more, all accessible from the Fireblocks Network for Payments via purpose-built APIs to accelerate the adoption of stablecoin payments at scale.
Our goal? Enabling institutions to orchestrate global payment flows, such as cross-border treasury, payouts, remittance and merchant settlements with complete control, across fiat and blockchain rails. We’re also easing the burden of due diligence and complex integrations so that institutions building products on top of our stablecoin infrastructure are future-proofing their strategies.
By uniting local payment rails, blockchains, and stablecoin systems, financial institutions no longer have to choose between speed, compliance, and control when building stablecoin payment products. And they can already work with more than 40 providers, including alfred, Banxa, Bridge, Braza Bank, B2C2, Circle, Conduit, dLocal, GSR, NexChange, Nonco, OpenPayd, Pave Bank, Paxos, QCP, Reap, SCRYPT Digital, Singapore Gulf Bank, Sygnum, Transak, Yellow Card, Zerocap, Zerohash, and Zodia Markets, and more. They are all available on the Fireblocks Network today, with more to come.
Why the Industry Needs a Better Payments Network
Companies need more than just connections: they need a network that supports global access and unified APIs with flexibility and control to grow without friction.
We designed the Fireblocks Network for Payments to unlock four critical drivers that companies need to succeed in this next phase of digital payments:
1. Connectivity For Global Access
Companies that want to enable stablecoin payments need to orchestrate a complex mix of providers: on/off-ramps, liquidity partners, payment service providers, banks, and stablecoin issuers. Today, that process is manual, slow, and high risk. Finding and vetting the right partners across different geographies and use cases is complex and confusing. Companies often struggle to identify providers with the right combination of liquidity, compliance credentials, licensing, and acceptable risk profiles.
The Fireblocks Network for Payments delivers a unified, secure access layer to a curated ecosystem of 40+providers across 100+ countries. This simplifies discovery, reduces operational overhead, and enables global reach without sacrificing control or compliance.
2. Scaling With One Integration
Working with multiple providers is expensive and prone to errors. Each new provider requires bespoke API development, lengthy onboarding, and significant engineering resources. This not only delays launches and increases costs, it creates vendor lock-in and introduces operational risk through manual processes.
The Fireblocks Network for Payments solves this with a single integration that delivers global reach, eliminating the need to build and maintain dozens of point-to-point connections.
3. Embedded Compliance Across Markets
New regulations are advancing at different speeds across jurisdictions, and companies face growing challenges from fragmented requirements. From our experience scaling the Fireblocks Network for crypto trading, we know that compliance complexity, inconsistent data standards, and operational overheads will only increase as stablecoin payments scale.
The Fireblocks Network for Payments embeds compliance directly into the transaction layer, translating requirements across markets into a unified framework. Every payment can carry the necessary AML/KYT and sanctions checks, beneficiary data, and wallet verifications. It also handles travel-rule requirements via Fireblocks’ in-house capabilities and integrations with Notabene, Elliptic and Chainalysis, so institutions can expand into new jurisdictions while maintaining a consistent standard of security, transparency, and regulatory readiness.
4. Revenue Agility
When companies want to expand into new markets, add digital assets and fiat currencies, or respond to regulatory changes, they typically face weeks or months of integration work, compliance reviews, and testing cycles. This delay means missing time-sensitive opportunities or falling behind competitors who can move faster.
The Fireblocks Network for Payments provides pre-integrated access to multiple providers and compliance frameworks through a single connection. When a new market opens up or liquidity becomes tight, companies can activate new capabilities within days, pivoting quickly without compromising security or regulatory requirements. This speed advantage becomes critical during market volatility, regulatory changes, or competitive pressure, allowing companies to capture opportunities while others are still planning their technical implementation.
A Network for the Stablecoin Economy
The Fireblocks Network for Payments brings together local payment rails, blockchains, stablecoin issuers, liquidity partners, FX providers, and remitters across 100+ countries and 60+ currencies, with compliance embedded into every transaction. More than 40 providers and 300 payment companies are already live, processing over $200 billion in stablecoin payments each month.
Just as the SWIFT network was built to connect fragmented banking systems and enable global fiat payments, we built the Fireblocks Network to serve as the connective layer for the digital asset economies. Today, we are extending it to move value securely across every provider, blockchain, or fiat rail at global scale.
And the Fireblocks Network will continue to expand. From tokenized deposits to RWAs to programmable settlement, we are building the connectivity layer and infrastructure so digital assets move seamlessly across institutions, rails, and use cases.
This is how digital assets move from promise to production.
