Visa Launches A Managed Gateway For Client Stablecoins
Clients mint, move and manage the Open USD stablecoin only through Visa-set dual-control approval and audit logging, still in limited beta.
- July 16, 2026: platform launches in beta with select financial institutions and fintechs.
- Open USD is the only supported stablecoin so far; more currencies are 'anticipated.'
- Jack Forestell, Visa's chief product officer, calls it a single place with Visa's own controls.
Why it matters: A single Visa-managed environment means every client's stablecoin operation runs through Visa's own control point.
