The system allows users to access funds instantly with over 200,000 ATMs and millions of merchants in over 200 countries. The integration leverages Kima’s SDK to support decentralized, compliant transactions and offers a new way to convert digital assets into available funds for everyday purchases.
Kima guarantees a decentralized settlement without intermediaries
Kima’s infrastructure eliminates the need for custodians and smart contracts by enabling direct peer-to-peer financial transfers. This model supports the settlement of the transit system between blockchain wallets and traditional banking institutions without introducing an additional layer of complexity.
As part of MasterCard’s Innovation Lab, Kima has collaborated with prepaid card issuers to launch a solution powered by Stablecoin within the MasterCard Sandbox-As-A-Service platform. This setup supports seamless onboarding and promotes large, secure and compliant Stablecoin settlements.
The SDK supports multiple blockchains and stubcoin, allowing for easy integration with FinTech apps and financial platforms. It also includes modules for AI agents, Defi platforms and wallet services to improve service providers.
Extensive reach of banks and fintech providers
Through collaboration with MasterCard, Kima Network has expanded access to networks of financial institutions, regulators and technology partners. The ecosystem aims to help traditional banking platforms adopt blockchain-based infrastructure while maintaining regulatory compliance and operational efficiency.
Notable implementations include projects with PAI that utilize Kima’s SDK to enable real-time card funding from Crypto Wallets. The system supports AML/KYC compliance, significantly reducing processing costs, and offers benefits for both users and publishers.
This integration demonstrates MasterCard’s ongoing efforts to support Stablecoin applications that work across retail and institutional environments. The partnership is designed to convert stubcoins from speculative assets to everyday payment tools, enhancing global finance accessibility and practical utilities.
