Conduit Integrates with Circle Payments Network: Supporting the Next Phase of Stablecoin-Powered Cross-Border Payments

The launch of Circle Payments Network (CPN) marks a step toward a more open, programmable, and efficient global financial system – and Conduit is proud to support that ecosystem by being one of the first partners live on Circle’s network.

What is Circle Payments Network (CPN)?

CPN is a blockchain-based coordination protocol that enables secure, real-time settlement of payments using USDC. Designed for financial institutions, it brings together the speed of blockchain with the compliance standards of traditional finance to support global, stablecoin-powered payment flows.

As an Originating Financial Institution on Circle Payments Network, Conduit enables fiat-to-USDC on-ramps from the U.S. and Europe, supporting stablecoin-based B2B flows into Mexico.

This integration helps address critical payment needs – such as supplier settlements, treasury movements, and other cross-border operations that are underserved by traditional infrastructure. CPN offers a faster, more transparent, and programmable alternative for moving value across borders.

An agile partnership

As a global cross-border payments platform, Conduit enables businesses to move money at speed, with transparency and control. Our integration with CPN reflects our commitment to supporting the next generation of payment infrastructure – one that is stablecoin-powered, always-on, and designed for real business needs.

Conduit was purpose-built for this moment. Our platform combines local payment methods, blockchain-based rails, and global FX infrastructure to help businesses send and receive payments across borders with minimal friction. That same flexibility and responsiveness allowed us to integrate with CPN quickly – enabling us to be among the first partners in the network.

We see stablecoins as a foundational layer for the future of international payments. CPN gives financial institutions the ability to coordinate payment flows and settle in stablecoins across global corridors – enhancing liquidity, speed, and compliance in a single protocol.

Looking to the future of payments

We’re partnering with Circle to continue  actively contributing to the evolution of global payments. As more institutions join and the network expands to new markets, we’re committed to ensuring that businesses in these regions can access reliable, compliant, and efficient payment options.
