Stripe powers USDC buys in Samsung Wallet Stablecoin Account

USSource: Stripe newsroom

  • Stripe announced on 5 November 2026 that its Crypto Onramp powers stablecoin purchases in the new Samsung Wallet Stablecoin Account.
  • The account is available for eligible users across 82 million Galaxy devices in the United States and lets customers buy USDC using Samsung Pay, credit and debit cards, and ACH, with Stripe's Crypto Onramp handling identity verification, compliance and fraud prevention.
  • Samsung Pay is also now available to businesses using Stripe's Crypto Onramp.

Why it matters

US banks whose customers fund or receive flows tied to Samsung Wallet USDC purchases via ACH now sit behind a mainstream-device stablecoin on-ramp that Stripe says also covers KYC, compliance and fraud checks.
