**_Wirex enables its partners to use Tempo as a key settlement layer for enterprise stablecoin card programs._**

Wirex, the global stablecoin infrastructure provider and a principal member of Visa and Mastercard, has added Tempo to its platform. The live integration enables Wirex partners to select Tempo as a preferred settlement layer for enterprise stablecoin card programs.

## Stablecoin card infrastructure built for scale

Wirex gives fintechs and digital platforms a single integration for regulated card issuance, wallets, compliance, and stablecoin settlement.

Wirex issues cards under its own licences as a principal member of Visa and Mastercard. Its infrastructure reached $1 billion in annualized onchain volume just 131 days after launch, and [doubled that volume 110 days later,](https://www.wirexapp.com/post/wirex-baas-doubles-annualised-volume-to-2b-in-110-days-as-stablecoin-based-financial-services-accel) making it one of the fastest-scaling stablecoin card platforms in the industry.

> “It’s great to offer Tempo as a key settlement layer for enterprise stablecoin card programs integrating with Wirex’s infrastructure. As a purpose-built blockchain for stablecoin payments at scale, Tempo gives our partners fast, predictable and private settlement, while Tempo’s advisory and engineering teams help them move from integration to production faster.”

## Why Wirex chose Tempo

Wirex selected Tempo because it offers more than a settlement network, bringing extensive payments expertise thanks to their incubation by Stripe. Together, Wirex and Tempo can give enterprises a supported path from product design to a live stablecoin card program using Tempo’s [Stablecoin Advisory](/stablecoin-advisory/).

Wirex provides the regulated card stack. Tempo’s Stablecoin Advisory and forward-deployed engineers work directly with customers to:

- Design the card and settlement flow
- Select and integrate the right infrastructure partners
- Move from architecture to prototype and production

This approach is informed by Tempo’s work with enterprises including DoorDash, Deel, Klarna, Felix, and ARQ.

> “Wirex gives companies building on Tempo a straightforward way to launch stablecoin-backed card programs. Customers can combine Wirex’s regulated card infrastructure with Tempo’s settlement network and hands-on support to seamlessly bring new products to market.”

Customers also benefit from a network built specifically for stablecoin payments. Tempo provides Wirex partners with the following features:

- **Fast, predictable settlement.** Transactions finalize in under a second, with dedicated payment capacity and predictable sub-cent fees.
- **Private payments.** Tempo Zones keep balances and transactions private while supporting selective disclosure for audit and compliance.
- **Stablecoin-native operations.** Network fees are paid in stablecoins, eliminating the need to hold a separate gas token.
- **Simpler reconciliation.** Structured transaction data keeps funds and settlement information on the same rail.

Together, Wirex’s regulated infrastructure and Tempo’s network and implementation support help enterprises bring stablecoin-backed card programs to market faster.

## What’s next

Wirex and Tempo are working together to bring more fintech and enterprise card programs onto the network. If you are evaluating stablecoin-backed cards, [get in touch](/contact/).
