OnePay and Tempo Partner to Reimagine Next Generation of Payments

OnePay to launch validator on Tempo; partnership aims to advance stablecoin-powered payouts & account funding, among other use cases

NEW YORK, April 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- OnePay, the consumer fintech trusted by millions of Americans to make money better, and Tempo, the payments-first Layer-1 blockchain incubated by Stripe and Paradigm, today announced a partnership aimed at stablecoin-powered payouts and account funding for OnePay's Banking product.

OnePay already powers instant payouts and direct deposit access for millions of workers and consumers. Stablecoin infrastructure represents the next evolution of that capability — enabling always-on settlement, lower infrastructure costs, and new ways to move money into and out of the OnePay platform.

The partnership's early focus areas include stablecoin payouts and instant account funding, with OnePay and Tempo working to expand into additional use cases over time.

"We're proud to serve an incredible customer base that values their money working harder and moving faster," said Pierce Harger, Head of Crypto, OnePay. "Tempo's payments-focused architecture and built-in privacy and compliance tooling make it the right infrastructure partner as we expand into stablecoin-powered experiences for our customers."

As part of the collaboration, OnePay plans to launch a validator on Tempo. The commitment signals OnePay's interest not only in building customer-facing products on stablecoin rails, but in actively supporting the infrastructure that powers them.

"The next wave of onchain adoption will come from products that solve real payment problems for everyday users," said Ani Narayan, GTM, Tempo. "OnePay serves millions of workers and consumers who stand to benefit from faster, cheaper money movement. We're excited to partner on shaping the next generation of consumer finance."
