Fiserv Announces FIUSD

Fiserv, the global financial technology leader, has unveiled FIUSD, a stablecoin specifically designed for banks and financial institutions, signaling a strategic move into blockchain-powered payments.

Set to launch by the end of 2025, FIUSD will be deployed across Fiserv’s expansive global network—serving over 10,000 financial institutions and 6 million merchants. The stablecoin promises 24/7 settlement, lower transaction costs, and real-time payment rails, with seamless integration into core Fiserv systems like Finxact and Commercial Center.

What differentiates FIUSD is its institutional-first design. Delivered through a software development kit (SDK), the stablecoin allows banks and businesses to adopt blockchain rails without disrupting existing infrastructure. The solution includes built-in fraud monitoring, compliance tools, and settlement controls, ensuring robust enterprise-grade security and regulatory alignment.

“With our scale, reach, and technology leadership, Fiserv is uniquely positioned to advance stablecoin-powered payments and help democratize access to blockchain financial services,” said Takis Georgakopoulos, Chief Operating Officer at Fiserv.

FIUSD is being developed in partnership with Paxos and Circle, two of the most trusted stablecoin infrastructure providers. The stablecoin will initially launch on the Solana blockchain, selected for its speed and cost-efficiency, with plans for interoperability across major blockchains and eventual expansion into tokenized deposits.

The announcement marks a significant step forward in bridging traditional finance with digital assets, as Fiserv aims to build a compliant, scalable, and modern stablecoin ecosystem tailored to institutional needs.

This is expected to be the first of several digital asset innovations Fiserv will announce in the coming months, as the company deepens its commitment to next-generation financial infrastructure.
