PPRO Partners with Damisa for Stablecoin Settlement Across Latin America and Beyond
PPRO has partnered with Damisa to move funds through regulated stablecoin rails for treasury and cross-border settlement. The setup started in Latin America and is now being extended as PPRO expands globally, which matters because the model cuts out the usual multi-bank correspondent chain and gives the payer more control over prefunding and visibility.
- Damisa, described as a regulated stablecoin-native settlement platform for cross-border business payments, powers PPRO’s onramp and off-ramp flow. In practice, Damisa converts funds into regulated stablecoins, moves them across borders the same day, and settles in PPRO’s currency of choice.
- The partnership replaces multi-bank correspondent chains with a single regulated rail. That reduces the capital that has to be prefunded in each market, while giving PPRO full visibility of every payment.
- Latin America was the initial deployment region. Damisa says the region is one of the fastest-growing for local payments and one of the hardest for moving money out efficiently, so it became the proving ground for the model: collect locally, move on stablecoin rails, settle locally.
- After the first rollout, the arrangement is being extended to additional markets as PPRO grows its global footprint. Damisa will support collection, cross-border movement, and local-currency settlement.
- Damisa positions itself as a regulated, multi-jurisdiction platform with an Australian Financial Services License, AUSTRAC digital currency exchange and remittance registration, registration as a Money Services Business with FINTRAC in Canada, and a VASP registration in Poland, with Malta CASP and Payment Institution authorisation in progress. It says sanctions, AML, and transaction screening run on every payment, and that it settled more than $70 million in the first half of 2026 across more than 90 countries and 70 currencies.
The broader point for PSPs is straightforward: stablecoin settlement is no longer being pitched only to crypto-native flows. When correspondent banking gets thinner in the corridors that matter, the combination of regulated stablecoins and licensed infrastructure starts to look like a working treasury tool rather than a side experiment.
