Australian businesses are becoming increasingly global. From design studios and marketing agencies to software consultancies and independent contractors, more professionals are working with clients in the United States, Europe, and Asia than ever before.
But despite the digital nature of modern business, cross-border payments remain stuck in the past. Traditional bank transfers can take 3 to 5 business days, cost $30 to $50 in fees, and often leave both sides frustrated. For clients abroad, especially startups or smaller companies, those delays and extra costs can make it harder to work with Australian service providers.
In 2024, stablecoin transaction volumes reached $27.6 trillion, surpassing Visa and Mastercard combined. What began as an experiment in digital currency has evolved into the backbone of modern cross-border payments.
For international businesses, USDC and USDT have become preferred settlement tools because they are:
From tech startups in Singapore to creative agencies in the US, many companies now hold stablecoins as part of their working treasury. When they hire talent or service providers overseas, paying in stablecoins is already standard practice.
This shift is creating a new opportunity for Australian contractors and small businesses. By offering stablecoin payment options, they can position themselves as easier and faster partners to work with, especially for clients who already operate in global digital markets.
Until recently, the main challenge for Australian businesses was how to accept stablecoin payments without taking on complexity or risk. That is where FastStables comes in.
This is not just a new payment option. It is part of a wider movement. Across industries, businesses are finding that faster settlements mean stronger cash flow and better client relationships.
Stablecoins remove the biggest barrier to global business: banking friction. They reduce operational lag, eliminate unnecessary fees, and give both sides confidence in instant, verifiable transactions.
As adoption grows, clients will increasingly expect to pay this way. Businesses that can say yes will win the work.
Stablecoins are already powering trillions in transactions each year. For Australian small businesses, that represents a major opportunity: access to global clients without the pain of traditional international banking.
