Worldpay has partnered with BVNK to offer near-instant global payouts in stablecoins across 180+ markets, without clients needing to manage digital assets. The move reflects surging global adoption of stablecoins, with over $27 trillion in transactions made in 2024.
Worldpay Taps Into Stablecoin Surge with BVNK Integration
In a major move towards modernizing cross-border payments, Worldpay has announced a strategic partnership with BVNK, a global payments platform. The collaboration will allow Worldpay’s clients in the US and Europe to send stablecoin payouts to customers, creators, contractors, and sellers across over 180 countries, nearly instantly.
Crucially, this service enables businesses to benefit from stablecoin efficiency without directly handling crypto wallets or digital assets.
Seamless Access Through Existing Worldpay Integration
The new stablecoin payout service is expected to launch in the second half of 2025. It will be accessible through Worldpay’s existing payout platform, meaning clients won’t need additional infrastructure to use the new system.
This builds on Worldpay's prior work with stablecoins, including enabling settlements in USDC back in 2022, and a pilot program with Visa to speed up fund settlements.
Why Stablecoins? A $27 Trillion Market in 2024
According to a 2024 analysis by Visa, stablecoin usage has skyrocketed, reaching:
- $27 trillion in total transaction volume
- 1.25 billion transactions globally
- Of these, $5.7 trillion came from stablecoin payments in cross-border use cases alone
This data illustrates the growing demand for faster, cheaper, and more transparent payment rails, especially for international commerce.
Simplifying Crypto: Trust + Infrastructure
BVNK CEO Jesse Hemson-Struthers emphasized that stablecoins are revolutionizing how global payments are handled by providing speed, transparency, and accessibility yet adoption has been slow due to the complexity of dealing with blockchain tech.
“When trusted providers like BVNK and Worldpay work together, we can simplify the complexity and bring modern, efficient payment options to businesses across the globe,” said Hemson-Struthers.
This partnership signals a shift in the financial services landscape, where enterprise-ready crypto solutions are becoming both trusted and mainstream.
What This Means for Businesses
For businesses in sectors such as e-commerce, freelancing, content creation, and global trade, this collaboration:
- Reduces payout wait times
- Eliminates currency conversion headaches
- Offers access to modern financial rails without crypto exposure
- Enhances global reach with over 180 market coverage
Final Thoughts
The Worldpay-BVNK partnership marks a turning point in mainstream adoption of stablecoin infrastructure. As digital asset rails grow more secure and accessible, we’re likely to see more legacy financial players embrace the speed and reach of stablecoins without the baggage of crypto complexity.
