On March 4, 2026, Crossmint announced a strategic partnership with Western Union to support the rollout of USDPT, a U.S. dollar-denominated stablecoin issued on the Solana blockchain. This collaboration focuses on Western Union’s new Digital Asset Network, which aims to bridge digital assets with real-world cash access across a vast global footprint.
The initiative leverages Western Union’s network of over 360,000 collection points to allow users to convert digital dollars into local currency. Crossmint will integrate these capabilities into its existing wallet and payment Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), supporting a platform already trusted by more than 40,000 clients.
“Working with partners like Crossmint helps to seamlessly connect global wallets and digital platforms to Western Union’s trusted payment infrastructure,” said Malcolm Clarke, Western Union’s Vice President of Digital Assets.
