To extend everyday payments, remittances, and 'PayFi' solutions to millions of users and merchants

NEW YORK, June 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- PayPal today announced plans to make the PayPal USD (PYUSD) stablecoin available on the Stellar network pending regulatory approval by the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS)1. Stellar is a blockchain designed for fast, low-cost payments and real-world utility. By potentially expanding to Stellar, PYUSD leverages the network's speed, low transaction costs, and ease of integration to enhance its utility for real-world payments, commerce, and micro-financing, offering an additional option to Ethereum and Solana.

PYUSD on Stellar can be used for fast, affordable cross-border payments and expanded access to essential financial services while bridging the digital and physical world with a vast array of on and off ramps. Users may also benefit from improved daily payment options and financing solutions such as working capital and business loans - use cases already thriving on the Stellar network - ultimately enabling a more seamless flow of value across global markets.
