Cross River Bank, a tech infrastructure provider that offers embedded financial solutions, announced the launch of its offering to power stablecoin payments. Integrated directly with Cross River’s real-time core, COS, the offering unifies fiat and stablecoin flows through a single, interoperable system–enabling firms to move value across different chains as well as traditional rails, leveraging “bank-grade” compliance.
Although money movement is fragmented across fiat rails and blockchains, Cross River unifies it all—eliminating “operational sprawl and the need to pre-fund or rebuild ledgers.”
The offering gives fintechs, enterprises, and crypto-native players infrastructure for “network settlement, merchant payouts, on/off ramps, and treasury management.”
Gilles Gade, Founder, President and CEO of Cross River said that they’re building the so-called future of finance.
Gade has added that they are taking blockchain beyond payments and settlement, “reimagining every corner of banking—from BaaS to lending—to deliver a faster, more connected financial world grounded in safety and trust.”
Cross River brings experience supporting digital asset platforms “with real-time, secure, and compliant financial infrastructure.”
With stablecoin volumes exceeding $20 trillion annually, this launch marks a key milestone in the transition to “on-chain financial infrastructure—providing programmability, transparency, and speed with the guardrails of a federally regulated bank.”
Luca Cosentino, Head of Crypto at Cross River said that moving to onchain finance requires true “interoperability between fiat and blockchain networks.”
Cosentino also noted that previously firms were forced into inefficient choices—pre-funding, high cost of capital, “stitched-together vendors, and slow time-to-market.”
They added that by abstracting the complexity of blockchain integrations, their platform “enables fintechs, enterprises, and crypto-native companies to access stablecoin capabilities without compromising on regulatory expectations or operational requirements.”
The offering is intend for approved partners “across fintech, enterprises, and crypto-native companies, with broader availability to come.”
Beyond payments, Cross River’s infrastructure is built to support future use cases that are now involving digital assets and blockchain tech.
This development reflects Cross River’s belief “that financial innovation and regulatory compliance are compatible.”
As the digital asset sector continues to evolve in the coming years, Cross River is committed to shaping an “inclusive and efficient future for global finance.”
