Paysend, Nodu bring stablecoin payouts to bank accounts & wallets

By Vriti Gothi

London-based payments firm Paysend has partnered with stablecoin infrastructure provider Nodu to enable banks and FinTechs to convert stablecoins into local currency and deliver funds to end users’ bank accounts and digital wallets in real time.

The integration allows institutions to convert stablecoins into 43 currencies and initiate payouts across 62 countries via Paysend’s global network. The companies said the offering is among the first off-ramp solutions at this scale, combining Nodu’s API-led stablecoin infrastructure with Paysend’s cross-border payout capabilities.

Despite growing adoption, stablecoin usage in commercial payments has been constrained by fragmented conversion processes, regulatory complexity and limited global liquidity access. For financial institutions, technical integration requirements and compliance obligations have also slowed implementation. The new service is designed to address these challenges by allowing banks, FinTechs and payment service providers to outsource the full stablecoin-to-fiat lifecycle.

Under the model, Nodu manages stablecoin acceptance, automated conversion into fiat and compliance workflows, while Paysend delivers the final payout through its Paysend Enterprise network, which connects to bank accounts, cards and local payment methods worldwide.

“For clients, this is a truly convenient exit from the crypto market, allowing value to move seamlessly from the blockchain into local currency in seconds rather than days,” said Alex Novozhenov, CEO and Co-Founder of Nodu. “If someone holds stablecoins, they can instantly convert them into fiat and send funds to a local bank or wallet in a specific country and currency. This solves two critical problems at once: rapid access to liquidity and frictionless international transfers.”

“Breaking down the barriers between crypto and fiat is essential for the next phase of global payments,” said Danny May, Head of Commercial for EMA at Paysend. “By partnering with Nodu and launching this global off-ramp product through the Paysend Enterprise network, we’re enabling a compliant, lightning-fast last mile from blockchain to local economies worldwide.”

The collaboration represents Paysend’s first deep integration into stablecoin off-ramping and reflects a broader industry shift toward linking digital asset infrastructure with traditional payment rails. As institutions explore stablecoins for cross-border settlement and treasury use cases, scalable, compliant conversion and payout capabilities are emerging as a key requirement for mainstream adoption.
