OUSD is live.

Author: Open Standard

Businesses and developers can now start using Open USD (OUSD) to build internet-native financial services and products.

We launched OUSD so that businesses everywhere can use stablecoins as easily as they use fiat, benefiting from superinfrastructure that’s cheaper, faster, more global, and more programmable. OUSD is purpose-built for use cases across banking, cross-border payments, settlement, institutional trading, and more.

Start building

You can get started with OUSD via four integration paths:

  • Coinbase
  • Mastercard
  • Stripe
  • Visa

Each integration path offers APIs and tools that enable businesses and developers to build with OUSD across a range of critical services including settlement, payment orchestration, trading, FX, wallets, cards, and more. All paths support mint and burn functionality at a 1:1 USD conversion rate, at no cost.

Businesses can begin building with BVNK, Stripe, and the Visa Stablecoin Platform today and with Coinbase starting October 1. Learn more at joinopenstandard.com/integrate.

OUSD will be supported natively on Base, Ethereum, Solana and Tempo blockchains, and will be available across leading centralized and decentralized exchange venues starting with Coinbase, Kraken, and Uniswap—with more to be added over time.

Below are the official token OUSD contract addresses on each chain:

OUSD is issued by Bridge, a Stripe company, with reserves held at BlackRock, Lead Bank and BNY. Reserve attestations will be published monthly at reserves.bridge.xyz/ousd.
