KRHyundai Card, a subsidiary of Hyundai Motor Group, successfully tested a stablecoin-based cross-border transfer system between Hyundai Motor subsidiaries in the U.S. and Mexico. The test involved converting $20,000 into stablecoins, transferring them across borders, and converting them back into USD within seven minutes—a stark contrast to traditional bank transfers, which often take several hours. The project was conducted in collaboration with stablecoin issuer Tether, blockchain platform Avalanche, and payments infrastructure firm Axiym. Hyundai Card highlighted this as the first such test by a Korean card company, emphasizing its practical application for intercompany remittances. The company plans to conduct a follow-up test in Europe later this month, expanding the scope to include local currency transactions and partnerships with firms like Circle and Visa.
