Circle has partnered with Nium to expand USDC settlement to over 190 countries as part of a network upgrade. Nium, a real-time cross-border payments platform, is now connected to the Circle Payments Network (CPN), enabling financial institutions to access 100+ currencies and streamlined fund delivery. The integration allows institutions to transition directly from USDC settlement to local currency withdrawals in a single step, reducing reliance on multiple pre-funded channels. This advancement aligns with evolving global crypto regulations and increasing demand for efficient cross-border solutions.

According to The Block, Circle Technology Services, a subsidiary of Circle, has announced a partnership with Nium, a global real-time cross-border payment platform. Nium has joined the Circle Payments Network (CPN), providing financial institutions within the network with access to a payment infrastructure covering more than 190 countries and over 100 currencies, enabling fund disbursements to bank accounts, wallets, and debit cards. Financial institutions can complete the full end-to-end process—from USDC settlement to local currency payout—through a single integration, eliminating the need to pre-fund multiple channels.
