Worldpay Joins Global Dollar Network, Expanding Access to Stablecoin Solutions for Merchants Worldwide
Global Dollar Network continues to expand its ecosystem with the addition of trusted, innovative payments partners. Today, we’re excited to share that Worldpay, a leading global payments technology company, has joined the network. Worldpay merchants can soon settle with USDG on the Solana network, offering faster, more cost-efficient transactions and expanding the utility of stablecoins in global payments.
With more than 40 billion transactions processed annually across 146 countries and 135 currencies, Worldpay is one of the largest and most respected non-bank payment processors in the world. Its $2.2 trillion in yearly transaction volume underscores a deep global footprint and a track record of processing commerce at scale. Worldpay joining Global Dollar Network represents a significant step in the evolution of digital payments, paving the way for a more efficient, accessible, and inclusive global financial system powered by U.S. dollar stablecoins. And among stablecoins, USDG is the fastest-growing stablecoin in 2025.
Worldpay has been a foundational payments provider to the digital assets industry for nearly a decade. As a trusted partner to many of the world’s leading crypto companies, Worldpay has helped bridge traditional finance and blockchain-based services at scale. Their decision to support USDG reinforces their continued leadership in advancing payment innovation and underscores the growing demand for stable, programmable digital dollars.
In the near future, Worldpay’s merchants will be able to settle with USDG on Solana alongside traditional methods, giving merchants more flexibility while reducing dependency on costly, outdated payments. With USDG, cross-border payments become seamless, eliminating the hassle of currency conversions and long settlement times.
Walter Hessert, Head of Strategy at Paxos, commented on behalf of Global Dollar Network,
“We are thrilled to welcome Worldpay to Global Dollar Network. Worldpay's extensive reach and expertise in payment processing will be invaluable in driving the mainstream adoption of stablecoins and realizing the full potential of digital assets.”
Worldpay will leverage USDG to:
Enhance cross-border payments: Use USDG for faster, lower-cost international transactions.
Drive innovation: Participate in the development of new stablecoin-based payment solutions and use cases.
Increase financial inclusion: Provide access to modern financial tools for people and businesses across a wide range of markets.
USDG and Global Dollar Network create a new economic model for stablecoins. Partners that adopt and grow USDG benefit from the value it creates. In contrast, most widely-used stablecoins today extract value away from the platforms growing these products. Global Dollar Network flips this model with transparency and value-sharing.
Worldpay’s entry into Global Dollar Network is more than just a headline—it’s a signal that stablecoins are moving into the core of global commerce. This collaboration sets the stage for what the next era of global payments can look like: trusted, interoperable and built to benefit the ecosystem as a whole. We’re just getting started. If your business uses or is exploring stablecoins, now's the time to join the network shaping the future of payments.
