Business and commercial card programmes accounted for approximately 17% of Visa’s stablecoin-linked card volume in fiscal 2026 to date.
Visa released the figures as businesses, financial institutions and payment providers explore stablecoins for moving and managing money.
The network supports more than 160 stablecoin-linked card programmes across consumer, business and commercial activity.
Payment volume across these programmes has grown nearly 200% year on year.
“Businesses aren’t looking for new payment technologies for the sake of innovation. They’re looking for trusted, reliable ways to move money.
What’s changing is that stablecoins are increasingly becoming part of the conversation around real business applications, from supplier payments and treasury operations to cross-border commerce.”
said Mark Nelsen, Global Head of Product, Commercial & Money Movement Solutions, Visa.
Stablecoins have historically been associated with cryptocurrency trading.
Research from Allium cited by Visa found that payments are now their fastest-growing use case, with annual payment volume estimated at between US$401 billion and US$527 billion.
The largest business payment categories included service fees at US$56 billion, payroll at US$43 billion and supplier payments at US$28 billion.
Among the payment flows analysed, business-to-business payments had the highest cross-border share at 43% of volume.
Visa is expanding its stablecoin capabilities across settlement, money movement and payment acceptance, including Visa Direct pre-funding and payouts.
