The stablecoin payment strategy Flutterwave built

Mercy Emmanuel, Flutterwave’s Stablecoin Vertical Lead, has a simple way of explaining the payment company’s approach to stablecoins: the stablecoin is the rail, not the product. It is a principle that has guided Flutterwave’s stablecoin push since 2025—though the company’s internal appreciation for the technology started much earlier. Flutterwave is using stablecoins to move money through the payments infrastructure it has spent a decade building.
