Visa May Issue USDC Credit Card After Adding Circle to ‘Fast Track’ Program: Report
Visa on Wednesday is linking its payments network of 60 million merchants to the U.S. dollar coin (USDC) digital currency developed by Circle Internet Financial on the Ethereum blockchain, according to Forbes.
- While Visa itself won’t custody any USDC, Circle will be working with Visa to help select Visa credit card issuers start integrating the USDC software into their platforms and send and receive USDC payments.
- Eventually, Visa will issue a credit card that lets businesses send and receive USDC payments directly from any business using the card.
