Visa tests stablecoins in DRC for cross-border payments

Visa, M-PESA Africa, and Onafriq are launching a stablecoin pilot in the Democratic Republic of Congo to revolutionize cross-border mobile money.

By leveraging blockchain-backed digital currency, the partnership aims to bypass slow, expensive traditional banking corridors to enable near-instant, low-cost international settlements.

This initiative marks a major milestone for African fintech, positioning the DRC as a key testing ground for the future of digital-dollar remittances and global mobile money integration.
