Coinbase has partnered with Nium to expand USD Coin payouts across more than 190 countries, targeting faster and more efficient cross-border payments.
The integration allows Nium clients to fund transactions using USDC and settle directly into local currencies, bypassing traditional banking delays.
“We’re unlocking stablecoin payments around the world. Nium operates in 190+ countries. All their customers can fund payouts in USDC and settle to their local currencies, with no wire delays,”
Said Coinbase CEO, Brian Armstrong.
Coinbase will provide the underlying infrastructure, including stablecoin payments, liquidity, wallet services, and regulated custody, simplifying integration for enterprise clients.
The partnership reflects growing demand from businesses for faster, always-on settlement systems compared to legacy banking networks.
Nium said the system enables companies to transact across both blockchain and fiat rails within a single platform, improving efficiency and transparency.
The rollout is already live for Nium clients, signalling continued momentum for stablecoins in global payments and treasury operations.
