“Can OwlTing become the stablecoin-native settlement layer for global B2B payments — starting with hospitality and e-commerce and expanding via Visa Direct into consumer remittances?”
Founded in 2010 as a Taiwan-based blockchain and hospitality technology company (operating OwlNest property management system), OwlTing pivoted toward fintech infrastructure by launching OwlPay as a B2B cross-border payment service in 2022, initially powered by Nium and Circle. The company then repositioned itself as stablecoin payments infrastructure, completing a Nasdaq direct listing in 2025 under OBOOK Holdings Inc. (OWLS). By 2026, OwlTing was pursuing a multi-rail strategy combining USDC stablecoins, Visa Direct, and the Circle Payments Network to challenge remittance incumbents while layering an AI-agent hospitality booking engine on top of its existing hotel SaaS client base.
