Oobit has partnered with Kaia to enable stablecoin payments across Asia, allowing users to transact with USDT and the $KAIA token both online and in physical stores.
This integration utilizes existing Visa terminals, ensuring that merchants do not need to alter their current payment systems.
Oobit will manage the stablecoin-to-fiat conversion in the background, making the process seamless for both consumers and businesses.
Kaia network sees over 65M transactions and 10M wallet addresses per month, expecting more user onboarding in the region.
Co-founder and CEO of Oobit Amram Adar expressed:
Crypto payments have to be as simple as tapping your card or sending money to a friend. With Kaia, that’s what we’re delivering – not just in stores, but online and across borders. Asia is where this shift is happening, and the rest of the world will follow.
As stablecoins continue to gain traction in various markets, partnerships like that of Oobit and Kaia are crucial in driving the adoption of digital currencies in daily commerce, especially across South Korea, Vietnam and Japan where in-app and mobile payments are the means of choice for many.
