Para Now Supports the Stellar Network

Para is now live on Stellar ✴️

Build embedded wallets on a network purpose-built for stablecoin payments and cross-border money movement, where transactions settle in seconds for a fraction of a cent. Teams building payments products can now create embedded wallets on Stellar. Apps moving money across borders, paying out to contractors, or settling in stablecoins can give users a wallet that feels native to the product, running on a network built for exactly this kind of work.

Why Stellar

Stellar was built for payments. Transactions settle in a few seconds and cost a fraction of a cent, which matters a lot when you are moving small amounts at high volume, the shape of most remittance and payout flows. USDC is issued natively on the Stellar network and a deep network of anchors already connects Stellar to local fiat rails in markets around the world. For fintechs building remittances and payouts, settlement becomes fast and cheap by default.

What Para Adds

Para gives fintechs building on Stellar the wallet layer on top. Users sign in with methods they already know and get an embedded wallet that lives in context to the app, with no separate download and nothing fragmented to explain to a first-time user. Every wallet is secured with Distributed MPC, so no single party holds the full private key.

Para embedded wallets also support Stellar Smart Contracts so users can interact with onchain logic directly from the app, from programmable payments to more complex settlement flows, with no external wallet to connect.

Adding Stellar does not mean rebuilding anything. You write against the same SDK and auth you already use, and Stellar joins the networks Para supports across web, mobile, and server signing.

"Para brings the wallet layer that payments builders on Stellar are looking for, one that's embedded, secure, and simple enough that users don't need to think about crypto at all. Pairing that experience with a network built for fast, low-cost stablecoin settlement makes it easier than ever for fintechs to ship cross-border products people actually want to use."

– Raja Chakravorti, Stellar Development Foundation Chief Business Officer

Already Live in Production

Teams are already live in production or planning for launches in production on Stellar. Coala Pay runs cross-border remittances with Para, moving real money for people today.

"Choosing a wallet infrastructure partner wasn't taken lightly. We ran a months-long benchmarking exercise before selecting Para— and they topped every metric. Clear docs, fast support, new blockchain rails in weeks. We're genuinely proud of what we built together on Stellar."

– Melyn McKay, Coala Pay Founder/CEO
