Visa est\u00e1 lanzando nuevos servicios de asesoramiento para ayudar a sus clientes a desenvolverse en el mundo de las criptomonedas.<\/p>\n
Visa announced the launch of its Global Crypto Advisory Practice in December 2021 as part of Visa Consulting & Analytics. The service was designed to help financial institutions, merchants and other businesses develop cryptocurrency strategies, assess opportunities involving digital currencies and explore non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Since then, Visa has expanded its activities to include stablecoin settlement infrastructure, blockchain-based payment solutions and digital asset services for financial institutions and payment providers.<\/p>\n
Visa reported approximately USD 3.5 billion in payment volume through crypto-linked card programmes during its 2021 fiscal year, covering the period from 1 October 2020 to 30 September 2021. This figure represents historical card payment activity rather than the company’s current stablecoin settlement volume. By April 2026, Visa had expanded its stablecoin settlement pilot to support nine blockchain networks, with an annualised stablecoin settlement run rate of approximately USD 7 billion.<\/p>\n
Visa has partnered with cryptocurrency exchanges and digital asset platforms to support payment cards linked to eligible crypto-asset accounts. These programmes allow customers to make purchases at participating merchants through the Visa network, with the relevant crypto-assets generally converted into an accepted settlement currency by the service provider. Merchants do not necessarily receive cryptocurrency directly, and the availability of crypto-linked card products depends on the issuing institution, jurisdiction and applicable regulatory requirements.<\/p>\n
Visa develops payment and settlement infrastructure involving stablecoins, which are crypto-assets designed to maintain a stable value relative to a specified reference asset, such as the US dollar or euro. Stablecoins are legally and technically distinct from central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), which are digital forms of central bank money. In July 2025, Visa expanded its settlement capabilities to support additional stablecoins, including USDG, PYUSD and EURC, and additional blockchain networks. By April 2026, its stablecoin settlement pilot supported nine blockchains. These services remain subject to applicable regulatory and operational requirements.<\/p>\n
