Alchemy Pay, the leading fiat-crypto payment gateway, has announced a new integration with stablecoin issuer Agora to support $AUSD, Agora’s fiat-backed digital dollar. This integration enables global users across 173 countries to purchase AUSD directly using local fiat currencies through Alchemy Pay’s seamless on-ramp solution.
With this integration, Agora’s users now gain access to Alchemy Pay’s extensive global payment infrastructure, which supports over 50 fiat currencies and 300+ payment methods including Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay, Google Pay, local bank transfers, and regional mobile wallets. This makes acquiring AUSD more accessible to both retail and institutional users across diverse jurisdictions.
AUSD is designed with an institutional-grade reserve framework, with all reserves held in custody by State Street, one of the world’s largest and most trusted financial custodians. The reserve assets — comprising cash, short-term U.S. Treasuries, and overnight repos — are actively managed by VanEck, a globally recognized asset manager with more than $140B AUM. Agora maintains a transparent attestation process to provide ongoing visibility into AUSD’s backing, ensuring full accountability and trust.
Unlike legacy stablecoins, Agora’s open partnership model enables exchanges, custodians, dApps, and other ecosystem participants to directly participate in AUSD’s distribution and adoption. This approach fosters collaborative growth while maintaining rigorous transparency and reserve management standards.
Alchemy Pay is driving mainstream crypto adoption by bridging traditional finance and digital assets. Its robust global network is reinforced by its expansive portfolio of regulatory licenses, including nine U.S. Money Transmitter Licenses and others across Southeast Asia, Korea, Europe, and the UK. This partnership represents another important step toward a more interoperable and inclusive digital finance ecosystem, underlining Alchemy Pay’s continued commitment to supporting trusted stablecoin issuers and advancing global crypto adoption.
