Integration embeds stablecoin rails into Payoneer’s stack, signaling mainstream fintech adoption and pressure on legacy cross‑border networks.
February 17, 2026

Payoneer has announced plans to embed stablecoin capabilities, receive, hold, and send, directly into its platform, powered by Bridge, a Stripe company, reaching nearly 2 million global customers.
The move brings 24/7 settlement and treasury optionality to SMBs operating across borders, with Bridge providing the compliance-first infrastructure needed to support enterprise-grade onboarding, custody, and controls.
For Payoneer, stablecoin functionality complements its existing FX and payout rails, positioning the firm to capture flows that value instant availability and lower operational friction. Strategically, Stripe’s distribution via Bridge gives mainstream fintechs a turnkey path to stablecoin adoption, intensifying competition with incumbents relying on batch-based correspondent banking and settlement cutoffs. This signals a shift toward “always-on” money for B2B commerce as regulated fintechs productize digital dollars within familiar workflows.
With a customer base of nearly 2 million businesses globally and decades of experience in compliance and cross-border payments, Payoneer positions itself as a trusted gateway for stablecoin adoption among SMBs. The company, which specializes in empowering businesses in emerging markets to connect to the global economy, sees this as a natural extension of its services.
" No-friction money movement is essential for global business," said John Caplan, CEO of Payoneer. "In partnering with Bridge, we're bringing stablecoin into Payoneer's trusted financial stack in a way that prioritizes compliance, speed, security, and simplicity. This is about rethinking how money moves across borders for real businesses, not as an experiment, but as a scalable financial capability."
