Financial platform Brex added a feature for instant stablecoin payments with automatic conversion into U.S. dollars, giving businesses the ability to conduct international transactions without fees or delays, 24/7.
Brex is expanding its platform’s functionality by enabling businesses to send and receive USDC stablecoins, automatically convert them into U.S. dollars, and pay corporate card balances in crypto. All transactions will be executed within seconds and with no fees.
FinTech company Brex operates globally, serving corporate payments and cards in more than 120 countries. Over 30,000 business clients use the platform, from startups to large enterprises, including companies such as Anthropic, Arm, Robinhood, Sonos, and others.
Traditional bank transfers are limited to business hours, while international settlements can take up to 3–5 business days and often involve additional currency conversion fees. As a solution, Brex is introducing stablecoin integration into its platform, uniting corporate card management, contractor payments, international transfers, and accounting reports within a single interface.
With stablecoins, companies will be able to pay contractors, close deals over weekends, and top up corporate cards without waiting for banking systems to open. All transactions will be automatically recorded in financial reports, simplifying cash flow management. In addition, Brex promises no hidden costs — USDC-to-USD conversion will occur at a fixed 1:1 rate regardless of transaction size.
A waitlist was opened for Brex customers who want early access to stablecoin payments. Among the companies already testing the new feature are major players in the crypto sector, including Figure, Solana, and Alchemy.
Max Krupyshev, CEO of CoinsPaid, stated in his 2025 report for members of the American Chamber of Commerce Estonia that stablecoins are becoming a new universal payment method. In his view, cryptocurrencies in general, and stablecoins in particular, are already an important tool for conducting international business.
Just recently, the total market capitalization of stablecoins surpassed $300 billion for the first time, driven by their widespread adoption across various sectors.
