PayPal is preparing to expand the utility of its U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoin, PayPal USD (PYUSD), by launching it on the Stellar blockchain network pending regulatory approval from the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS).
This strategic move aims to unlock broader real-world use cases by leveraging Stellar’s low-cost, high-speed transaction capabilities and its robust global payment infrastructure. By adding Stellar to its roster of supported blockchains alongside Ethereum and Solana, PayPal intends to offer users more efficient alternatives for cross-border payments, everyday commerce, and small business financing.

“Stablecoins have long been considered crypto’s killer app, thanks to their ability to combine blockchain efficiency with fiat currency stability,”
said May Zabaneh, Vice President of Blockchain, Cryptocurrency, and Digital Currency at PayPal.
“Bringing PYUSD to Stellar amplifies its potential in cross-border financial services and enhances overall user value.”
The integration would also tap into Stellar’s extensive network of on- and off-ramps, digital wallets, and links to local payment systems—positioning PYUSD for more seamless remittances, merchant payments, and daily transactions across over 170 countries.
Building on this global reach, Denelle Dixon, CEO of the Stellar Development Foundation, emphasized the goal of turning stablecoins into “practical financial tools” for underserved markets.
“We’re focused on enabling fast, low-cost global payments that can be scaled and trusted by users around the world,”
she said.
In parallel, PayPal and Stellar are exploring the use of PYUSD in powering ‘Payment Financing’ (PayFi), a financing model designed to help small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) access real-time working capital. This would enable businesses to disburse PYUSD instantly for operational needs, such as supplier payments or inventory purchases, thereby enhancing liquidity and financial flexibility.
Moreover, according to Bloomberg, PayPal plans to further integrate PYUSD across its ecosystem by enabling more than 20 million merchants to use the stablecoin for vendor payments by the end of 2025, reinforcing its commitment to PYUSD adoption and expanding its utility in business-to-business transactions.
