QCAD can then be used for a variety of efficient use cases including pre-loading payment cards and paying bills like taxes and tuition. These use cases can be accessed on Stablecorp’s Grapes Finance platform as well as more broadly through the ecosystem. Further integrations with payment platforms like Solana Pay are anticipated through Q1 of 2024.
“The power of Digital Money like QCAD is just beginning to be understood as integrations like this one with Solana come online. Picture a student coming to study in Canada who can now use on-chain rails to get into QCAD from their local currency extremely efficiently and can now use those same efficient rails to fund and spend on-campus and around Canada. All this without the hassle of setting up a Canadian bank account” said Alex McDougall CEO of Stablecorp “we’re extremely excited to bring these payment solutions to both existing digital asset native users as well as the next generation of users who are rapidly being onboarded to the space.”
Additional details about Digital Money, currency diversification and On-Chain FX initiatives including those in the Solana ecosystem can be found in a recent report issued by Stablecorp along with Cumberland and Zodia Markets entitled “The Seven Defining Opportunities In On-Chain FX“. Additional details on recent payment announcements in the Solana space can be found with VISA selecting Solana for their USDC settlements and Shopify selecting Solana Pay as an approved app in their merchant store.
