USDA stablecoin now redeemable through major digital payment providers in Africa and Southeast Asia
October 2025 — Anzens, the issuer of USDA, a fully reserved and regulatory-compliant stablecoin on the Cardano blockchain, today announced the expansion of its treasury withdrawal capabilities to include e-wallet support across eight emerging markets. Users can now burn USDA and instantly claim their preferred e-wallet from a curated list of regional payment providers.
The expansion brings USDA redemption access to Cameroon, Ghana, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Turkey, Uganda, and Vietnam, with integrations spanning over 40 e-wallet providers including GoPay, LinkAja, OVO, and ShopeePay in Indonesia; GCash and PayMaya in the Philippines; and leading mobile wallets across Africa.
“Mobile-wallet payouts address underbanked users and use cases like merchant payouts and remittances, lowering friction and broadening real-world adoption,” said Shantnoo Saxena, Anzens CEO & Founder. “By enabling USDA redemption through e-wallets, we’re meeting users exactly where they bank and removing barriers to accessing stablecoin utility.”
Unlocking Financial Inclusion Through On-Chain Infrastructure
E-wallets have become the primary financial infrastructure in emerging markets, with billions of users conducting daily transactions through mobile payment platforms. This announcement represents a critical step in bridging on-chain finance with real-world commerce and financial services.
The integration enables multiple use cases: merchant settlements, cross-border remittances, payroll distributions, and direct consumer access to USDA liquidity. Users can complete the entire process in minutes, converting their on-chain holdings directly to local payment methods without intermediaries or delays.
“Treasury withdrawals shouldn’t require users to jump through hoops,” continued Saxena. “We’ve designed USDA to flow seamlessly into the financial rails that billions already use daily. This isn’t about adding another payment option. It’s about removing friction from the on-chain-to-real-world conversion.”
Expanding Beyond Payments
This release follows Anzens’ earlier announcement of USDA off-ramp capabilities to Latin America, signaling a broader LATAM and emerging markets expansion strategy. The company has prioritized regions where stablecoin utility can have the most immediate impact on financial access and operational efficiency for businesses and individuals.
Cardano’s energy efficiency, low transaction costs, and growing adoption in emerging markets made it the natural blockchain foundation for USDA. The expansion reflects shared commitment between Anzens and the Cardano ecosystem to bring practical on-chain finance to underserved populations.
