Settle globally via USDC without directly touching digital assets. Circle Managed Services is releasing a turnkey solution for near-instant global payments.
Circle Managed Services enables easier stablecoin adoption by removing technical and regulatory barriers. Our first managed service offering, CPN Managed Payments, is a turnkey solution built on Circle’s licenses and enterprise-grade payments infrastructure.
Stablecoins have moved decisively deeper into the core infrastructure of global finance. Trillions of dollars move across public blockchains each year, and stablecoin enabled payments have reached over $390B+ in volume alone in 2025.¹ The promise of faster, cheaper, and programmable money movement is no longer a futuristic concept—it’s a business necessity.
Innovative companies wanting to stay ahead of market trends are putting together teams with digital asset expertise to help them get up to speed. Other companies are hesitant to adopt stablecoins for a multitude of reasons, including not wanting to take on the complexity of managing them. Circle is now making it easier for businesses at all stages of their digital asset journey to adopt stablecoins. With Circle Managed Services, we intend to support partners with solutions that span across technology, compliance, regulations, and settlement. The partner continues to interact with a familiar payments stack while Circle handles the complexity. As part of this announcement, we are also launching our first Managed Service: CPN Managed Payments.²
Introducing CPN Managed Payments
CPN Managed Payments is an all-in-one offering that enables partners to work in the currency they know, with the infrastructure they understand, while Circle handles the complexity of stablecoin licensing, compliance, and payment orchestration. This makes Managed Payments especially relevant for PSPs, banks, and fintechs that want a practical path into stablecoin payments. They do not need to build a digital asset team from scratch, re-architect treasury and compliance operations, or take on direct exposure to stablecoins. With Circle handling the infrastructure, they can adopt stablecoin-powered settlement in a way that fits more naturally into their current operating model.
A turnkey, end-to-end stablecoin solution
Working with a single counterparty removes the need to stitch together solutions across multiple providers which can introduce unnecessary cost and complexity. Through a single and simple integration, Managed Payments brings together the core components required to support stablecoin payment flows. Circle handles on and off-ramps, wallets, liquidity, payment orchestration, compliance, and blockchain infrastructure, so partners do not have to assemble the stack themselves. From payins to payouts and the money movement in between, Managed Payments helps businesses capture the speed and efficiency of stablecoin settlement while continuing to operate through familiar fiat workflows.
Engineered for today, ready for the future
We support our partners to keep pace with the rapidly evolving payments landscape and adapt quickly to changing business needs. As companies build internal expertise, expand into new operating models, or secure additional licensing, they can adopt more of Circle’s composable payments infrastructure without changing providers or rebuilding from scratch.
Because CPN Managed Payments runs on Circle’s first-party, full-stack payments infrastructure, partners can seamlessly transition from fully managed to hybrid or more composable models over time, using Managed Payments in some geographies and more direct infrastructure in others. The result is a future-proof foundation that meets partners where they are today and gives them a clear path to launch new products faster, lower implementation costs, and take on more control as their business evolves.
Adopt stablecoin payments today
We're excited to help companies bring stablecoin settlement into their global payments. By abstracting the technical and licensing complexity into a managed service powered by Circle, it gives partners a clear path to launch now and a stronger foundation for what comes next.
