Wirex, a major cryptocurrency payment platform, has partnered with TRON DAO to launch a new, fully on-chain payment infrastructure built natively on the TRON blockchain. This collaboration aims to create a unified system for instant, global value transfer, specifically designed to expand the real-world utility of digital assets and stablecoins.
The new infrastructure is built entirely on-chain, supporting continuous settlement for everyday activities. It leverages TRON's established settlement layer, which reportedly handles over $23 trillion in transfer volume, more than 350 million user accounts, and over 12 billion recorded transactions. Wirex contributes its extensive payment network, connecting blockchain assets to traditional financial rails across more than 130 countries and providing access to Visa's 80 million merchant network.
Key features of the system include: instant stablecoin transfers with users maintaining full self-custody of their wallets, 1:1 conversion for major stablecoins like USDT and EUR-backed equivalents with no added spreads, and fast processing on the TRON chain for consistent settlement. The platform is designed to support retail purchases, cross-border transfers, business transactions, invoicing, and payroll.
A significant focus of the announcement is enabling "agentic payments," a feature that allows digital agents or autonomous AI-driven applications to execute transactions without manual input. Wirex co-founder Pavel Matveev stated, "By building TRON-native payment infrastructure, we're proving that on-chain money can move as seamlessly as data. Fast, transparent, programmable, and under user control, it's the foundation for the next generation of self-custodial and agentic payments."
The launch follows Wirex's 2025 introduction of its stablecoin payment service, Wirex Pay, and represents a coordinated effort to scale blockchain payments while maintaining a secure, self-custodial model. The partners position this framework as a base layer for emerging autonomous financial services.
