Marqeta and zerohash are joining forces to make stablecoin spending available through international card networks. The partnership is designed to help Marqeta customers add stablecoin functionality to both newly launched products and services that are already in market.

Under the arrangement, Marqeta will incorporate zerohash’s digital asset and stablecoin infrastructure into its card issuing platform. That gives fintech companies and other financial providers a way to connect stablecoin-based balances or payment flows with everyday card use, rather than building the underlying crypto infrastructure on their own.

The move highlights how stablecoins are increasingly being explored for real-world payments, not just trading and transfers. By linking digital asset infrastructure with card issuance, the companies are aiming to make it easier for businesses to offer payment experiences that combine traditional financial rails with blockchain-based value.

For Marqeta customers, the main appeal is the ability to add stablecoin spending features inside existing financial products with less integration work. For zerohash, the deal expands the reach of its infrastructure into mainstream card-based commerce, signaling broader interest in stablecoin-enabled payments across the fintech sector.
