Western Union and Rain have launched Stablecard, a digital wallet and Visa-branded card enabling users to hold and spend USD-pegged stablecoins (USDPT) across 37 markets, with plans to expand to over 60. The card supports remittances, transfers to crypto wallets and exchanges, and can be used with Apple Pay and Google Pay.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You now have a new on-ramp for USD-backed stablecoins via a major remittance and card network; building products that support Stablecard payment rails or target its user base can capture early market demand.
