Solana's USDPT Stablecoin Now Acceptable at Over 175 Million Merchant Locations
Solana has made significant strides in its ecosystem development with the launch of Western Union's Stablecard, powered by Rain. This card enables instant spending with USDPT (a stablecoin issued onchain on Solana) anywhere Visa works across 175M merchant locations in 37 markets at launch.
The integration connects Western Union's remittance flow to card spending through USDPT, providing an operational route into Visa merchant payments for Solana. The Stablecard links stablecoin settlement with an existing card acceptance network, eliminating the need for merchants to adopt a new payment rail.
