Nium Launches Dual-Network Stablecoin Card Issuance Platform for Global Business Payments

San Francisco-based Nium launched its stablecoin card issuance platform on March 30, 2026, to bridge digital currency with traditional commerce. The solution allows enterprises to convert stablecoin balances into fiat currency at the point of sale across hundreds of millions of merchant locations worldwide.

The infrastructure leverages 40 regulatory licenses to provide compliant issuance across 190 countries without requiring businesses to build new backend systems. Nium currently issues 38 million card tokens annually and supports real-time disbursements in over 100 different currencies.

The platform streamlines the time-to-market for stablecoin programs from months to days by managing cross-border settlement and network compliance in a single layer. This launch positions Nium as a primary infrastructure provider for companies looking to deploy digital dollars at scale through established global payment rails.

“Every business we speak to that holds stablecoins wants the same thing: a simple, compliant way to deploy those balances without building the infrastructure themselves,” said Prajit Nanu, CEO and Founder of Nium.
