Checker integrates with Stellar to accelerate stablecoin adoption and settlementAs part of the Stellar network, Checker now supports cross-border transactions on the Stellar blockchain, expanding network coverage and reinforcing Checker's role as the access layer for financial institutions building products powered by stablecoins.
Stellar provides infrastructure for settlement and asset issuance, while Checker provides the on-ramp and off-ramp infrastructure layer that connects stablecoins with local and international financial systems.
By connecting domestic payment rails to a blockchain purpose-built for payments, the partnership further reduces the friction traditionally associated with international transactions. Everyday use cases such as fintech operations, international payroll, and treasury management can now operate with the same speed and transparency as a local payment.
"We share a vision of making everyday international payments more direct and predictable. We believe this new generation of infrastructure, combining stablecoins with modern blockchains like Stellar, has the potential to completely transform how money moves globally," — Jack Chong, CEO at Checker.
Beyond payments, Stellar plays a key role in powering humanitarian aid and financial inclusion initiatives, aligning with Checker's recent commitment to support NGOs and charitable organizations through fee-free cross-border stablecoin transfers.
The partnership was originally published on August 18, 2026.
