Global payments are stuck in the past: slow, expensive, and limited by banking hours. But a shift is happening. Payments on Solana are enabling money to move at the speed of the internet: instant, global, and virtually free.
In our recent webinar, "Payments on Solana: A Production Ready Ecosystem," Sheraz Shere (Head of Payments) and Ilan Gitter (Head of Ecosystem Engineering) outlined why financial giants like Visa, PayPal, and Worldpay are choosing Solana.
Why Solana?
It comes down to production-ready scale. Solana processes more transactions than all other blockchains combined. With fees at a fraction of a cent and sub-second finality, it is the only chain capable of handling the volume required for global finance.
The 5 Key Verticals
The session broke down exactly how this infrastructure is redefining five core areas:
- Treasury Management: Bypassing T+2 settlement for 24/7 liquidity.
- Remittances: Replacing costly correspondent banking with instant transfers.
- Neobanking: Powering next-gen wallets with yield and debit cards.
- Payouts: Instant global payments for gig workers and creators.
- Merchant Settlement: Eliminating the 3-day wait for funds.

Builders don't need to start from scratch. Solana offers production-ready tools, like Token Extensions, that handle compliance and transfer logic out of the box. You can go from prototype to production in weeks.
