Meow, the rapidly-growing global business banking fintech that serves global businesses and allows AI agents to open bank accounts and issue cards, has partnered with stablecoin infrastructure provider BVNK to power stablecoin and cryptocurrency payments. 

Meow is backed by investors including Tiger Global, QED, and Lux Capital and handles billions of dollars in assets. It is building a next-generation business banking platform for multi-entity, multi-national teams, alongside providing services including free USDC on and off-ramping, bill payments, invoicing, and corporate cards. Meow serves businesses in 200+ countries including the U.S., Cayman Islands, BVI, Singapore, and Panama. 

BVNK will power Meow’s stablecoin and crypto payments globally, adding new currencies and providing access to the Swift network, enabling customers to move seamlessly between fiat and digital assets, reducing costs and delays in cross-border payments. 

The integration means that Meow can now support payments in major cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin (BTC) and Tether (USDT). And unlike business payment platforms built around specific chains, rails or currencies, Meow takes a multi-chain, multi-rail, multi-asset approach that gives businesses more flexibility in how they move and manage money. 

Working with BVNK accelerates Meow’s vision to redefine business banking and become the all-in-one financial platform for businesses, reducing costs and improving payment efficiency. 

Brandon Arvanaghi, CEO of Meow, said: “Businesses should not have to stitch together fragmented providers to collect funds, move money globally, and access modern payment rails. Our partnership with BVNK helps change that.”

“By partnering with BVNK we’re giving customers a faster, lower-cost and more interoperable way to move money through a single platform. It simplifies the complexity behind both fiat and stablecoin flows and allows us to deliver more value back to our customers.”

Chris Harmse, Co-founder and Chief Business Officer at BVNK, added: “The next generation of financial services will be defined by platforms that can seamlessly connect fiat, stablecoins, crypto, and global payment rails. Meow is a market leader in global business banking for crypto companies and multi-national teams. They understand that future, and we’re proud to partner with them.”

“This is about much more than a single payment use case. Together, we’re enabling Meow’s customers to collect, hold and send value more efficiently across any rail, chain or asset, saving them time and money.”

In the long term, Meow and BVNK are exploring working together to expand Meow’s stablecoin capabilities to include building a crypto-enabled merchant acceptance business. 

The partnership highlights a new era in business banking, where companies will be able to move seamlessly between traditional and digital currencies, reducing costs, improving speed, and unlocking global opportunities.
