This pivotal inclusion reflects our commitment to simplifying and enhancing your cryptocurrency transactions, ushering in a new era of financial flexibility and convenience.
Understanding PayPal USD ($PYUSD)
What sets PYUSD apart is its unwavering backing by U.S. dollar deposits, short-term U.S. Treasuries, and similar cash equivalents, ensuring a 1:1 parity with the U.S. dollar. Issued by Paxos Trust Company, $PYUSD emerges as a digital currency poised to redefine the way institutions transact and hold digital assets.
Key features and functions of $PYUSD:
- Seamless Integration with PayPal: $PYUSD is making its way to eligible U.S. PayPal balance accounts, facilitating its use for a spectrum of transactions, making everyday financial operations more accessible and convenient.

- Conversion to Other Cryptocurrencies: For added convenience, $PYUSD can be employed for the conversion to and from other cryptocurrencies supported by PayPal, offering a simple and efficient means of diversifying cryptocurrency portfolios.
The vision behind $PYUSD
PayPal USD is designed to bridge the gap between traditional fiat currencies and the innovative world of Web3, offering a seamless connection between the two realms for consumers, merchants, and developers. As the sole stablecoin supported within the PayPal ecosystem, $PYUSD leverages PayPal's extensive experience in handling payments at scale.
As an ERC-20 token issued on the Ethereum blockchain, $PYUSD offers compatibility with a growing community of external developers, wallets, and Web3 applications. This versatility extends its adoption to exchanges and powers unique experiences within the PayPal ecosystem.
$PYUSD's role is not limited to mere transactions. It aims to streamline in-experience payments in virtual environments, expedite value transfers, facilitate remittances and international payments, and support developers and creators. Its compatibility with Web3-specific environments positions it as a pivotal player in the growing digital assets landscape.
