Noah and Jupiter enable fiat–crypto banking integration

Global payments infrastructure provider Noah has partnered with Jupiter to integrate regulated banking capabilities into the decentralised finance (DeFi) platform, enabling users to move seamlessly between crypto and fiat currencies.

The integration connects Noah’s regulated settlement infrastructure to Jupiter’s ecosystem on Solana, allowing more than 50 million wallet users to hold, earn, and spend through virtual USD and EUR accounts. The move effectively adds neobank-style functionality to Jupiter Global, enabling salary deposits, international transfers, and direct off-ramps from on-chain assets to local bank accounts.

Jupiter currently accounts for around 90% of trading volume on Solana, one of the largest blockchains by total value locked, according to industry data. By embedding fiat capabilities, the platform is expanding beyond trading into everyday financial use cases such as payroll, remittances, and treasury management.

Users will be able to receive cross-border payments that settle directly as stablecoins and convert on-chain earnings into local currency without traditional delays or high intermediary costs. The partners said the offering is designed to address the long-standing “last-mile” challenge that has limited crypto’s use in real-world payments and financial activity.

“For too long, the crypto economy and the real economy have operated as isolated ecosystems,” said Shah Ramezani, founder and CEO of Noah. “By plugging regulated settlement infrastructure directly into Jupiter, we are turning a trading wallet into a comprehensive financial tool, allowing users to convert on-chain wealth into real-world spending power instantly.”

For Noah, the partnership provides large-scale distribution across a global user base and extends the reach of its licensed banking infrastructure, which supports operations in more than 60 countries and multiple currencies.

“Our goal is to build a compliant, on-chain neobanking experience,” said Thomas Stoffels, Jupiter Global Lead. “The ability to off-ramp directly to a bank account or receive a wire transfer from a client directly into the app bridges the gap between the speed of blockchain and the utility of traditional banking.”

The rollout will initially support Singapore dollar and Malaysian ringgit, with additional currencies planned across the Asia-Pacific region, including AED, IDR, JPY, and THB. Further expansion into Europe and Latin America is expected over time.

The partnership reflects a broader industry push to integrate regulated financial infrastructure with DeFi platforms, as providers seek to move beyond trading use cases and position blockchain-based services as viable alternatives for everyday financial management and cross-border payments.
