Visa Launches Stablecoin Advisory Practice for Banks and Businesses
Visa has announced the launch of a stablecoin advisory practice, aiming to help banks, fintech firms, and enterprises navigate the fast‑evolving stablecoin and digital currency landscape. The initiative is part of Visa’s broader strategy to expand its role in blockchain‑based payments and financial infrastructure.
According to Visa, the new advisory service will support clients in evaluating, designing, and implementing stablecoin solutions, including use cases such as cross‑border payments, treasury management, and on‑chain settlement. The practice will be housed within Visa’s consulting and analytics division, which already advises financial institutions on payment modernization and digital transformation.
Visa emphasized that interest in stablecoins has surged as businesses seek faster settlement, lower transaction costs, and 24/7 payment capabilities. By offering structured guidance, Visa aims to bridge the gap between traditional finance and blockchain networks while maintaining compliance with regulatory requirements.
The advisory practice will cover several key areas:
- Stablecoin strategy and use‑case assessment
- Blockchain and infrastructure selection
- Risk management, compliance, and governance
- Integration with existing payment and treasury systems
Visa has already been active in the stablecoin ecosystem. The company previously enabled settlement in USDC on public blockchains and has partnered with multiple crypto‑native firms to test real‑world payment flows. This new advisory practice formalizes those efforts and positions Visa as a long‑term partner for institutions exploring tokenized money.
Industry analysts view the move as a signal that stablecoins are becoming a core component of global payment rails, rather than a niche crypto product. As regulatory frameworks become clearer in major markets, traditional payment giants like Visa are accelerating their involvement to remain competitive.
