KAST, a financial platform available in 170+ countries and built on stablecoin rails, plans to launch its stablecoin earn product on Tempo. Additionally, KAST is working with Tempo as a design partner to help shape new features and products for consumer stablecoin payments. Read the case study →
KAST is a financial platform for users to store, earn, move, and spend stablecoins. KAST plans to enable their users to earn on their idle stablecoin balances on Tempo, directly in the KAST app. The product is designed to be always-on and globally accessible, with room to extend across new product designs and asset types over time.
KAST is focused on building real financial products that scale globally. Tempo gives us a foundation to build on what stablecoin rails can unlock across payments and the next generation of money movement.
— Raagulan Pathy, Founder & CEO, KAST
KAST provides USD-denominated accounts, global pay-ins and payouts to more than 170 countries and is accepted at 150 million merchants.
KAST users in LATAM, MENA, and Asia benefit from KAST’s frictionless movement of money, given the difficulty of traditional banking and cross-border payments in those regions. Workers paid across borders, families sending money home, and small businesses operating in multiple currencies use KAST to hold, move, and spend stablecoin balances in places legacy rails struggle to reach.
KAST and Tempo are also working together as design partners to shape new features and products for the next frontier of stablecoin money movement. KAST’s user base across LATAM, North America, MENA, and Asia provide a real-world testing ground for what consumer stablecoin products need at scale.
What’s next
Over the coming months, KAST and Tempo plan to explore direct settlement and real-time authorizations to unlock faster, more reliable money movement.
