Stablecoins have transformed how value moves globally. But when it comes to payouts, the last mile is still where experiences succeed or fail. 

Today, Wirex is closing that gap. 


Wirex has launched Stablecoin Push-to-Card powered by Visa Direct, now available via Wirex Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS). The feature enables partners to deliver stablecoin-funded payouts directly to eligible cards worldwide, with coverage extending to more than 3 billion cards across 200+ countries and territories. 


This allows businesses to embed fast, scalable, card-based disbursements directly into their products. 


Turning Stablecoin Utility into Real-World Payouts 


Stablecoins are efficient, borderless, and programmable. However, usability challenges often emerge when funds need to reach recipients in a familiar and practical format. 

Stablecoin Push-to-Card addresses this directly. 


Through Wirex BaaS APIs, partners can enable recipients to receive funds straight to their eligible debit or credit cards. There is no need for IBANs, SWIFT codes, or country-specific payout infrastructure. 


Just a card number. 


“Stablecoins are great at moving value globally, but the last mile is still where payout experiences break down — on usability, coverage, and operational complexity,” said Pavel Matveev, Co-founder of Wirex. “Stablecoin Push-to-Card powered by Visa Direct closes that gap by turning stablecoin-funded balances into card payouts. Delivered through Wirex BaaS, it gives partners an embedded capability they can integrate via API to support real-time disbursements to eligible cards worldwide, with the consistency and control required for production-grade payout flows.” 

 

A Scalable Alternative to Fragmented Payout Infrastructure 


Building and maintaining international payout infrastructure is complex. Supporting multiple local rails, handling compliance requirements, managing exceptions, and optimizing FX across markets can quickly become operationally demanding. 


With Stablecoin Push-to-Card embedded via Wirex BaaS: 


  • There is no need to assemble fragmented payout rails market by market 

  • Infrastructure does not need to be rebuilt country by country 

  • Operational complexity remains behind the scenes 


Partners gain access to a card-first payout endpoint that scales internationally, while Wirex manages the underlying infrastructure. 


Key benefits 


  • Stablecoin-to-card payouts: deliver stablecoin-funded disbursements to recipients’ eligible cards 

  • Embedded via Wirex BaaS APIs: integrate push-to-card into partner products without rebuilding payout rails by country 

  • Global scale: coverage extending to 3B+ cards across 200+ countries and territories 

  • Fast delivery: funds available in under 30 seconds in many cases 

  • Always-on operations: 24/7/365, including weekends and holidays 

  • Simplified recipient experience: initiate payouts using card details rather than IBAN/SWIFT/routing information 

  • Competitive FX rates: transparent pricing with minimal FX margins compared with traditional wire transfers 


Built for everyday business payouts

 

The feature is particularly relevant for businesses with distributed teams and international vendor networks, where payout timing can directly impact retention, supplier relationships, and customer trust.  


It also extends the payout toolkit available through Wirex’s Banking-as-a-Service offering, giving partners a straightforward way to embed modern disbursements without rebuilding infrastructure country by country. 


The feature supports common payout scenarios, including: 


  • Contractor payments — pay freelancers and remote teams worldwide instantly 

  • Employee reimbursements - deliver expense reimbursements without delays 

  • Supplier settlements — accelerate vendor payments and improve cash flow 


How it works 


Partners can enable Stablecoin Push-to-Card through Wirex’s BaaS in three simple steps: 


  1. Enter the recipient’s card number (16 digits) 

  2. Select the amount and currency 

  3. Funds arrive instantly — money is available on the recipient’s card within seconds  


Stablecoin Push-to-Card powered by Visa Direct is now available via Wirex BaaS, enabling partners to embed card-based disbursements into their products.
