Bank technology provider Fidelity National Information Services Inc. is partnering with Circle Internet Group Inc. to offer financial institutions the ability to conduct transactions using Circle’s stablecoin. \u00a0<\/p>\n

The companies aim to help US banks offer their customers the option to make domestic and cross-border payments using Circle’s USDC<\/ps-link>, a cryptocurrency intended to track the value of a dollar one-for-one that’s backed by short-term US Treasuries and cash. FIS is integrating the token into its money movement hub, a service designed to help financial institutions connect with multiple payment networks. The service is expected to go live before the end of the year. Circle earlier this year launched a payments partner network<\/ps-link> to help scale USDC.<\/p>\n

“This time its no longer a fringe thing, it’s becoming foundational to all parts of financial services,” Himal Makwana, global head of corporate strategy at Jacksonville, Florida-based FIS, said in an interview. Stablecoins are “much more mature and grounded in actually solving client-end problems.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

The partnership provides Circle with a potential distribution channel of thousands of financial institutions that leveraging the company’s technology. FIS processes more than\u00a0$10 trillion<\/a><\/ps-link>\u00a0in transactions a year. Circle’s status as a publicly-traded company was a key feature, Makwana noted.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“This is one example of a partnership we have in place that can enable us to drive growth and distribution of USDC,” Kash Razzaghi, chief business officer at New York-based Circle, said in an interview. “A lot of these companies view FIS as a strategic partner helping them navigate this new world of digital payments and stablecoin. That’s another added benefit is that FIS has a lot of credibility when it comes to their customers and what they recommend.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

The integration\u00a0follows<\/a><\/ps-link>\u00a0landmark US stablecoin legislation that many crypto proponents expect to usher in a wave of adoption. Last month, FIS rival Fiserv Inc<\/ps-link>. announced plans to\u00a0launch its own stablecoin<\/a><\/ps-link>, FIUSD. Fiserv also plans to work with Circle.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
