Rebuilding Cross-Border Rails with Stablecoins at Scale

MoneyGram has been an early mover in real-world stablecoin utility – from cash-to-crypto on/off-ramps to stablecoin-backed wallets. The Fireblocks partnership now upgrades the back-end settlement layer, replacing slow, expensive correspondent banking pre-funding with instant, programmable, multi-chain flows while preserving MoneyGram’s industry-leading compliance framework.

“We are leading the next era of money movement by enabling money to move instantly across any channel – fiat or stablecoin,” said Anthony Soohoo, Chairman and CEO of MoneyGram. “Fireblocks accelerates this vision by giving us the secure, programmable infrastructure to transform global payments at scale.”

Real-World Benefits Unlocked

The integration delivers immediate impact:

  • Instant settlement across-chain settlement
  • Lower capital requirements and reduced FX exposure
  • Seamless stablecoin receipt from any partner
  • Direct treasury connectivity to global liquidity pools and exchanges
  • Automated reconciliation and audit-ready reporting
  • Future-proof architecture for programmable money features

“MoneyGram is rebuilding the rails of cross-border settlement in real time,” said Michael Shaulov, Co-Founder and CEO of Fireblocks. “By moving to a multi-chain, programmable infrastructure, it’s upgrading the speed and reliability of global payments at the foundation layer – where it matters most for the people who rely on these payments every day.”

As receivers increasingly hold funds in digital wallets rather than cashing out instantly, the partnership ensures MoneyGram can serve both sides of every transfer with speed, continuity, and lower cost – from sender to long-term financial relationship.
