@Payoneer has filed an application with the OCC to form PAYO Digital Bank, a national trust bank designed to support stablecoin-enabled infrastructure for global businesses.
There's "one remaining barrier" to stablecoin adoption for global businesses.
@RobAMorg of @Payoneer tells @RemyBlaireNews off-ramps are still holding back businesses in places like Colombia, where stablecoin can't easily "buy a cup of coffee" or pay employees.
@RobAMorg, Head of Stablecoin at @Payoneer, discusses how stablecoins are addressing customer demand for accessing funds "faster, cheaper, [and] more efficiently"

๐จ BREAKING: Payoneer is adding stablecoins for 2M customers powered by Bridge (Stripe).
Payoneer is a crucial player in last mile payment delivery.
- 2 million customers.
- 190+ countries.
- Mostly emerging market SMBs.
They'll be able to receive, hold, and send stablecoins โ and withdraw to local bank accounts โ inside the same platform they already use for cross-border payments.
Launching Q2 2026.
---
Payoneer is an infrastructure powerhouse
With
- 7,000+ trade routes
- across nearly 100 banking partners.
40% of their revenue comes from helping businesses sell into non-US markets.
These are wholesalers in Shenzhen. Freelancers in Lagos.
Marketing agencies in Bogotรก.
The people who get absolutely crushed by correspondent banking fees and 3-5 day settlement windows.
Stablecoins fix that.
But the adoption bottleneck was never the technology โ it was distribution.
---
Bridge now powers stablecoin infrastructure inside Stripe (101 countries), Visa card issuing in LATAM, Remote .com payouts in 70+ countries, and now Payoneer.
That's a pattern.
- Bridge sells the pipes.
- Everyone else keeps the customer.
- End users never touch a blockchain.
More control and economics for those who have distribution.
That's how stablecoin adoption goes mainstream โ not through crypto wallets, but embedded inside platforms people already trust.
๐ช Real-World Utility: By integrating stablecoin functionality into Payoneer, we are unlocking the ability to use stablecoin for real-world cross-border business use cases in the markets where stablecoin can meaningfully improve the experience.
๐ช We're launching stablecoin capabilities directly on our platform, powered by Bridge (@Stablecoin), a leading stablecoin infrastructure platform and a Stripe company.
๐ฌ Stablecoin adoption is accelerating, and real-world use cases are emerging, offering faster settlement and always-on, programmable money movement.
๐ค These new capabilities will enable our customers to securely receive, hold, and send stablecoins as part of their day-to-day global financial operations.
