Using USDT settlement for business payments
Stablecoin settlement moves value in minutes over public rails, which makes it valuable for treasury repositioning and for corridors where correspondent banking is thin or slow. Run it inside a compliance-reviewed workflow — invoice-linked, documented, screened — so the speed advantage does not come at the cost of auditability. Eligibility depends on jurisdiction and business profile.
