AllUnity’s CHFAU, a regulated Swiss franc stablecoin, is now live on Tempo—giving businesses a trusted CHF instrument for cross-border payments, treasury operations, and regulated settlement flows onchain. Explore the Tempo ecosystem →

AllUnity is a regulated European stablecoin issuer and licensed e-money institute, established by DWS, Flow Traders, and Galaxy.

CHFAU is AllUnity’s MiCAR-compliant Swiss franc stablecoin. The first Swiss franc stablecoin live on Tempo, it’s built for institutions that need the efficiency of onchain settlement without giving up regulatory grounding.

The case for Swiss franc liquidity onchain

Switzerland and the EU trade more than CHF 1 billion every working day. Most of that money still moves on infrastructure that settles in days, only operates during banking hours, and adds cost at each intermediary. Access to a regulated, onchain Swiss franc instrument has been limited.

CHFAU brings trusted CHF liquidity onto rails that settle in seconds, around the clock. For businesses operating between Switzerland and the rest of Europe, that means faster settlement, lower cost, and access to Swiss francs that isn’t tied to banking hours.

What businesses can do with CHFAU on Tempo

CHFAU supports a range of institutional payment flows, including:

  • 24/7 cross-border settlement between Switzerland and the EU
  • Real-time corporate treasury operations
  • Regulated settlement between financial institutions

Why Tempo

Tempo is a payments-first Layer 1 blockchain incubated by Stripe and Paradigm, built for the requirements of enterprise payment operations.

Transactions finalize in under a second with deterministic settlement, so payment operators get the same settlement certainty they expect from existing financial systems. Each transfer can carry structured metadata for invoice numbers and cost centers, which makes reconciliation against existing treasury and accounting systems straightforward. For institutions moving regulated currency at scale, that combination of settlement certainty and clean reconciliation is what makes onchain settlement practical.

“By bringing CHFAU to Tempo, we are enabling faster and more efficient access to Swiss franc-denominated liquidity for a broad range of use cases, from payments to treasury operations. Together with Tempo, we are delivering infrastructure that combines the stability of traditional finance with the efficiency of blockchain technology.”

— Peter Großkopf, CTO and CCO, AllUnity

What’s next

AllUnity is expanding its lineup of regulated European currency stablecoins, with new currencies becoming available on Tempo as they launch. For businesses integrating stablecoins into cross-border payments, embedded finance, and institutional settlement flows, that means a growing set of compliant local-currency instruments available on Tempo.

“We’re excited for AllUnity to bring CHFAU, a regulated Swiss franc stablecoin, to Tempo. Businesses on the network now have a trusted CHF instrument to settle cross-border payments, treasury flows, and regulated settlement in, natively onchain.”

— Eric Kang, GTM, Tempo
