Brex Announces Launch of Stablecoin Payments
Brex, the intelligent finance platform, announced the upcoming launch of native stablecoin payments. This will make Brex the first global corporate card to enable instant balance payments with stablecoins. With this launch, customers with a Brex business account will be able to accept stablecoins with automatic conversion into USD in their Brex business accounts and send stablecoins directly from their USD balances.
In addition, Brex customers will be able to pay their card balances with stablecoins. Stablecoin payments will be generally available in the coming months, starting with USDC, with a waitlist open for customers seeking early access when available.
Stablecoins are increasingly used for cross-border, large-scale business transactions, yet remain unavailable at most banks and institutional payment platforms. Brex is introducing the first consolidated financial platform to manage both traditional and stablecoin-backed spend at scale, giving companies faster access to liquidity and the ability to operate globally with greater flexibility, speed, and security. In collaboration with a trusted stablecoin infrastructure partner, Brex will offer:
- Instant payments with zero fees: Send stablecoin payments that settle in seconds for free without any hidden costs.
- 24/7 global reliability: Receive funds anytime with instant settlement across borders, all with the backing of Brex’s 24/7 customer support.
- One consolidated platform: Send and receive stablecoin payments all managed in the Brex platform.
This launch builds on Brex’s commitment to offering faster, more flexible payment options for global businesses, extending its financial platform to further support both crypto-native companies and those adopting digital assets for the first time.
“Stablecoins make it possible to move millions of dollars across borders in seconds, but using them typically requires fragmented workflows and managing multiple platforms,” said Pedro Franceschi, CEO of Brex. “With today’s launch, forward-looking companies across industries, from AI to crypto, will manage their largest payments and mission-critical expenses on Brex, in a single, secure platform,” said Pedro Franceschi, CEO of Brex.
Leading crypto and blockchain companies like Figure, Solana, and Alchemy have already joined the waitlist and run their finances on Brex. Soon, they’ll be able to operate the way they want—with the speed and efficiency of native stablecoin payments on the same trusted platform.
“By going public, Figure proved blockchain is no longer theoretical — it’s transforming financial services right now. Brex’s stablecoin payments bring that vision to enterprises, allowing companies like ours to move millions instantly across borders, combining the speed of crypto with the safeguards global businesses need,” said Michael Tannenbaum, CEO of Figure and Board Member at Brex.
“Stablecoins are transforming global money movement, and Solana provides the best-in-class infrastructure to power that future. We’re excited to see Brex will soon launch stablecoin payments where Solana will be integrated from the start,” said Tamar Menteshashvili, Head of Stablecoins at the Solana Foundation.
“Fast-moving companies need financial infrastructure that moves just as quickly, and Brex understands that in a way traditional platforms never will,” said Gabe Avins, Head of Finance, at Alchemy.
