For decades, moving money across borders has been slow, costly, and riddled with red tape. Payoneer is now changing that for good. The New York-listed financial technology firm has announced plans to embed stablecoin capabilities directly into its platform, a move that could reshape how everyday business transactions are handled across the world.
The company has teamed up with Bridge, a stablecoin infrastructure platform owned by Stripe, to offer the new service. By folding stablecoins into a single, trusted financial stack, the deal hands businesses faster settlement times, round-the-clock money movement, and the ability to transact across borders without the headaches that have long come with international payments. For small and mid-sized firms juggling suppliers, contractors, and customers across multiple currencies, it translates to fewer delays, leaner operations, and a tighter grip on cash flow.
Solving a Real Problem for Cross-Border Businesses
Stablecoins have been gaining ground, but for many businesses—especially those in emerging markets—putting them to actual use has been another story. Converting digital assets into local currencies, untangling fragmented workflows, and staying on top of a changing regulatory environment have all kept broader adoption out of reach.
Payoneer’s integration goes after these problems directly. A goods wholesaler can now take customer payments in stablecoins, while a marketing agency can use the same setup to pay overseas contractors without the usual wait. Users can park funds in stablecoins or move them straight to a local bank account whenever the need arises.

Payoneer will introduce the stablecoin features in select markets from the second quarter of 2026, with more availability to follow through the rest of the year. The company counts nearly two million customers globally and says its decades of compliance experience give it a solid footing to lead this push.
Chief Executive John Caplan described the move as a rethink of how money travels across borders—not a trial run, but a financial capability built to scale with real businesses.
