Send Swift Transfers From Your Stablecoin Treasury

Send Swift Transfers From Your Stablecoin Treasury

For fifty years, the only thing on the other end of SWIFT was a bank account. Now it's a stablecoin treasury.

SWIFT is slow, expensive, and hasn't changed much since 1973. It's also the default rail for cross-border bank transfers and how half the world still gets paid. With Altitude, businesses can now send SWIFT transfers to counterparty bank accounts in over 200 countries, funded directly from your USDC balance.

Keep your treasury in stablecoins.

Send global SWIFT transfers directly from Altitude.

Manage your stablecoin and fiat workflows from one platform.

Stablecoin-First, Fiat-Compatible

SWIFT transfers are now a native feature built right into your stablecoin treasury. Send transfers directly from your USDC balance to over 11,000 bank accounts using standard SWIFT details. All SWIFT transfers appear with your company name in the payment reference, so recipients can easily recognize the source and match it to your invoice. Pay out in local currencies to more than 200 countries, all with zero platform fees.

For the receiving side of this workflow, see Due's guide to USD SWIFT virtual accounts, which explains how businesses can collect international USD payments through dedicated account details.

Business Banking That Runs on Stablecoins

SWIFT transfers connect stablecoin treasury to bank accounts without changing how you operate. Stablecoin-first for global, always-on 24/7 settlement. Bridging traditional banking rails when you need it.

The question is no longer stablecoins or banks. With Altitude, they simply work as one.

SWIFT transfers are rolling out to select customers today. If you're already operating on Altitude and want early access, reach out to our team to gain access.
