Visa has added Western Union’s U.S. Dollar Payment Token (USDPT) as a new option for eligible partners to settle balances on its VisaNet payment network. USDPT is a stablecoin issued by Anchorage Digital Bank, backed one-to-one by U.S. dollars and cash equivalents, providing a secure and flexible settlement asset. This addition expands the choices for Visa partners who already use stablecoins for settlements, supporting the growth of stablecoin payments. The partnership may also lead to support for other stablecoins issued by Anchorage in the future, while Western Union aims to use USDPT to free up bank-held capital for cross-border remittances.
