Introducing Full Stack London. On 12 November, we’re hosting a B2B event in London focused on stablecoins, payments, cards and onchain finance. Produced by House of Block, with @Flight3official supporting as media partner. Invitation only, apply to join here 👉 luma.com/60b1zj6n

Consumer finance is becoming more specialised. As financial infrastructure becomes easier to access, simply being able to launch an account, card or payments product becomes less of a differentiator. More of the advantage comes from understanding a specific audience deeply enough to build around its financial behaviour, needs and existing habits. That changes what can be commercially viable. A community or use case that once looked too narrow to justify its own financial product can now support something much more tailored. As the underlying stack becomes easier to assemble, builders have more room to compete on relevance, distribution and product fit rather than scale alone. This is the opportunity our Group CEO and Co-Founder @matveevp explores in this clip.

We’re taking the stablecoin payments group chat offline at TOKEN2049. Meet neobank founders and infra builders at Neobankers brunch, co-hosted with Cardify Crypto & @RigidFi on 7 October, 10am–12pm SGT. RSVP 👉 luma.com/vzpoa3ni

Our Co-Founder & CCO Georgy Sokolov sat down with @stable_summit team for a new podcast episode. They get into the rise of onchain neobanks, more specialised financial products and the infrastructure making them viable. Watch the full episode 👇 piped.video/watch?v=hBjp9Jv4…

The biggest change in stablecoins has been what people use them for. Stablecoin payments can already feel like an established category because cards, accounts and settlement products are now everywhere in the conversation. In reality, the payments use case is still relatively young. For most of stablecoins’ history, their role was much more closely tied to trading and liquidity. The serious shift toward payments only started accelerating in the last couple of years. That shift is visible in the infrastructure companies are now asking for. More partners are building around cards, accounts, payouts and settlement, which is one of the reasons our own focus has moved increasingly toward infrastructure.

TOKEN2049 Singapore is coming up, and we’ll be there. On 7–8 October, Sviatoslav Garal, our Global Head of Payments, and Aleksandr Nurtdinov, our Asia GTM Manager, will be representing Wirex at the event. With thousands of companies across crypto, payments, infrastructure and Web3 in one place, it is a good opportunity to catch up with partners, meet teams from across the industry and have practical conversations around stablecoin payments and the infrastructure behind them. If you’re heading to TOKEN2049 as well, send us a DM and we’ll help set up a meeting with the team.

Wirex today is increasingly an infrastructure company. The retail business gave us years of experience operating cards, accounts, payments, scheme connectivity and compliance ourselves. The shift was to take that operating stack and make it available to other companies building financial products. We launched the infrastructure business in November 2025. In 131 days, it became the fastest stablecoin payment infrastructure to reach $1B in annualised onchain volume. That run rate has since passed $2B. Partners can now build with cards, accounts, payouts, settlement and other financial products through one integration, with an average signed-to-live timeline of 44 days. That is the direction of the business now. We are building the infrastructure other companies use to bring stablecoin-powered financial products to market. In this conversation with @samconnerone, Community Lead Developer at @circle and @arc, our Group CEO and Co-Founder @matveevp explains how Wirex moved from retail into infrastructure and what that focus looks like today.
