Western Union plans to launch its Solana-based stablecoin USDPT next month for agent settlement, positioning it as an onchain alternative to SWIFT rather than a consumer product.

USDPT will roll out in select markets, enabling faster settlement and operation beyond banking hours while integrating with the company’s existing global agent network.

The company is also launching the Digital Asset Network (DAN) to connect crypto wallets with its retail infrastructure, allowing conversion into local currency through agents.

A Stable Card is planned to enable global spending and stablecoin balances, targeting demand for dollar-denominated value in inflation-sensitive markets.
