“Can a regulated, multi-jurisdiction stablecoin + traditional payment platform displace correspondent banking for global business cross-border payments?”
Founded in 2017 as a cross-border payments company, Orbital expanded into stablecoin and crypto payment infrastructure as regulatory frameworks matured across the UK, Gibraltar, Estonia, and Switzerland. The company has evolved from a traditional FX/payments provider into a unified platform combining stablecoin rails with conventional SWIFT/SEPA rails, enabling businesses to hold, exchange, and settle across 80+ currencies and major stablecoins. With $12bn annualised run-rate value processed, Orbital's current strategic bet is that stablecoins will displace correspondent banking for high-friction emerging-market corridors.
