Paypal Holdings Inc. has completed its first business transaction using its stablecoin, Paypal USD (PYUSD), as part of a move to showcase how digital currencies can streamline corporate payments.

Last week, Paypal settled an invoice with Ernst & Young LLP using PYUSD, facilitated through SAP SE’s digital currency hub platform, which allows businesses to conduct instant, 24/7 digital payments. While the exact invoice amount was not disclosed, the transaction highlights how stablecoins, pegged to traditional currencies, can simplify cross-border transactions. PYUSD, which Paypal introduced last year, is tied to the US dollar and has a market capitalization nearing $700 million.

Jose Fernandez da Ponte, Paypal’s senior vice president of blockchain, cryptocurrency, and digital currency, stated:

The enterprise environment is very well-suited for it … It’s a very rational conversation to have with the CFO.

Stablecoins are increasingly favored by businesses, particularly in regions where traditional currencies are volatile, as they provide quicker settlement and reduce reliance on third parties. Paypal’s PYUSD use in this transaction points to its advantages in the corporate world. Fernandez da Ponte stressed Paypal’s collaboration with reputable industry players to validate the usefulness of stablecoin payments, saying:

Paypal, SAP, EY – those are names that are very, very well-established.
