Credible Finance has entered a partnership with NASDAQ-listed OwlTing Group to strengthen stablecoin-powered cross-border payments in Asia, opening new settlement routes into China and India.
The agreement, which is currently in the onboarding phase, will see Credible use OwlTing’s OwlPay Harbor network for payouts into China while OwlTing taps Credible’s infrastructure to support payment flows into India. The collaboration aims to simplify international transactions for businesses by reducing settlement times and lowering costs.

Stablecoins power new payment corridors
The partnership brings together two firms focused on modern payment infrastructure that combines traditional finance with blockchain technology.
Credible Finance provides same-day settlement services across more than 40 markets, supporting over 37 currencies and 86 payment methods. Its platform uses stablecoins such as USDC and USDT alongside conventional banking rails to process payments for fintech firms, e-commerce businesses, gaming companies, creator platforms, and Web3 projects.
OwlTing’s OwlPay Harbor operates as a regulated business-to-business settlement network that connects fiat currencies with stablecoins, giving enterprises compliant options for moving money across borders.
Focus is shifting to China and India
The collaboration targets two of the world’s largest payment markets, each with unique opportunities and regulatory requirements.
China’s financial system requires licensed payment partners for many cross-border transactions, making OwlTing’s infrastructure an important gateway for businesses seeking access. In India, demand for faster and cheaper payment solutions continues to grow alongside digital payment adoption and large remittance flows.
By linking their networks, the companies hope to offer businesses quicker settlements and more efficient cross-border transfers.
Growing demand for crypto-based payments
The announcement comes as stablecoins gain wider use in international payments, with companies increasingly turning to blockchain-based settlement to avoid delays and high transaction costs associated with traditional systems.
Meta introduced stablecoin-based payouts for eligible creators in the Philippines, allowing earnings to be received in USD Coin (USDC) through supported blockchain networks, marking a deeper shift into crypto-based creator payments. Earlier this month, Coinbase introduced direct Indian rupee (INR) payment rails for users in India, marking another step in the crypto exchange’s expansion across Asia.
OwlPay Harbor has expanded its enterprise customer base to more than 50 clients, reflecting rising demand for regulated stablecoin settlement services. Credible Finance has also built its network around instant settlements and has processed significant transaction volumes tied to stablecoin-powered financial services.
