Circle Partners Can Now Access Stablecoin Payouts Through Circle Mint Singapore

‍

Cross-border payments to third parties are a core offering for many payment service providers (PSPs), fintechs, and enterprises. With the passage of stablecoin laws around the world and the rise of the Internet Financial System, these firms are now augmenting fiat payments with stablecoins — specifically USDC — as a product experience, a growth lever, and increasingly, a competitive advantage. 

That is why we’re excited to announce that partners contracted with Circle Mint Singapore now have access to the Payouts API, extending access beyond US-based Circle Mint LLC.

This brings scalable third-party payouts directly into Circle Mint for customers operating in Singapore and across the Asia region. Built for global scale, this feature is tailored for businesses that want to automate payout workflows, reduce manual complexity, and move funds more efficiently across borders using stablecoins like USDC.

The payouts unlock for financial institutions and enterprises has arrived

Until now, partners contracted with Circle Mint Singapore did not have a native way to send scaled third-party payouts through Circle Mint. This launch closes that gap. The Payouts API is designed to support end-to-end payout workflows programmatically. By automating these flows, businesses can reduce operational overhead, minimize human error, and improve transparency across payout operations.

In addition, the launch of the Payouts API in Singapore aligns with local Travel Rule requirements and regulatory expectations, giving financial institutions and enterprises a compliant path to scaling payout use cases. For Singapore-based companies, this launch enables access to infrastructure that is better suited to the realities of modern cross-border payments: faster movement of value, greater programmability, and more streamlined operations.

Why Circle is scaling payments infrastructure in Singapore

Singapore is one of the most important financial and trade hubs in the world, making it a natural choice for expanding Circle’s global infrastructure. Demand for better cross-border payment infrastructure is more critical than ever and a recent World Bank report showed average remittance costs still exceed 6%, highlighting the ongoing inefficiencies in moving money internationally. There’s a clear need for payment infrastructure with improved speed, transparency, and operational efficiency to support a more connected global economy.

What this means for Circle partners

New partners in Singapore and Asia can onboard to an all-in-one solution that abstracts away the complexity of stablecoin-based payouts. This expansion opens new opportunities across the Circle ecosystem and helps orchestrate seamless third-party payments at the speed, trust, and certainty of stablecoins. Current Circle Singapore partners using other payout solutions can now bring those workflows directly into their local Circle Mint and scale from a unified platform.

Existing Asia partners contracted with Circle Mint LLC that would benefit from operating through Singapore can now migrate to Circle Singapore and access scaled third-party stablecoin payouts.

Circle Mint and USDC as global payment infrastructure

For Singapore-based PSPs, fintechs, and enterprises, this payout integration into Circle Mint is a direct path to building compliant, scalable payment experiences on institutional-grade infrastructure designed for the Internet Financial System. For existing partners contracted with Circle Mint Singapore, it is another step toward a more unified way to move value across borders with the speed, transparency, and programmability that today’s payments landscape demands.

As Circle’s first Payouts API expansion outside the US-based entity, this launch reinforces a larger story: Circle is building the new Internet Financial System, a comprehensive, full-stack payments infrastructure — and USDC is increasingly serving as the global payment rail for internet-native money movement. 

This is just the start. We will be bringing additional stablecoin payment infrastructure and capabilities for different regions, partners, and use cases.
