KuCoin Pay Connects Digital Assets With Local Banking and Transfer Rails Across High-Growth Markets

KuCoin Pay, the cryptocurrency payment solution from the KuCoin exchange, has expanded its transfer-based payment capabilities to three high-growth markets: Bangladesh, Mexico and Zambia. The rollout connects digital assets with local banking and mobile money networks, including bKash and Nagad in Bangladesh, SPEI-compatible bank transfers in Mexico, and mobile money services from MTN and Airtel in Zambia.

The integration allows users to move digital assets and stablecoins through familiar financial infrastructure without navigating complex backend processes. KuCoin Pay adapts to each country’s local transfer environment, offering a single technical entry point that routes payments via the most suitable local rail.

“Crypto is emerging as a new asset class with growing relevance in the real economy, and payments are one of the most important ways for this value to reach users,” said Alicia Kao, Managing Director of KuCoin. “Through KuCoin Pay, we are building trusted and localized connections between digital assets and existing banking, mobile money and transfer rails. By integrating crypto with the financial systems people already use, we are helping digital assets move beyond holding and trading into practical financial activity, while supporting more inclusive and future-ready financial ecosystems in high-growth markets.”

KuCoin Pay supports more than 50 cryptocurrencies, including KCS, USDT, USDC and BTC, for both online and in-store purchases. The company plans to continue improving compatibility with local banking and payment systems, optimising technical response times, and expanding practical crypto payment use cases in supported markets.
