Stablecoin Settlement Guide
Stablecoin settlement can separate the customer's payment method from the asset received by the merchant. A customer may pay in fiat while a compatible provider structure settles in USDT or USDC.
Collection
Customer collection may occur through cards, local payment methods, bank rails or crypto, depending on provider.
Conversion
Where supported, value can be converted before settlement. Conversion terms, timing and fees are provider-specific.
Treasury
USDT/USDC settlement can affect treasury design, reconciliation and off-ramp requirements.
Risk & Compliance
Jurisdiction, KYB/KYC, transaction monitoring and provider policy remain part of the architecture.
