Use Cases

Global, instant payments

Embed branded payments across your app, platform, or merchant network with fast, low-cost transfers that are instantly redeemable for USDC.

Treasury & liquidity optimization

Centralize treasury and liquidity with a single settlement asset across your organization, while Coinbase manages reserves and you earn rewards on your stablecoin balances.

Drive loyalty with rewards

Give customers a balance they want to hold and can spend anywhere in your ecosystem, and layer on incentive programs that accelerate stablecoin adoption.

DeFi & ecosystem growth

Integrate a branded stablecoin into your protocol with permissionless, fee-free 1:1 USDC conversions onchain, so users can move seamlessly across the broader USDC ecosystem.
