Positioning stablecoins as the foundation of Eightcap’s global trading ecosystem, the partnership supports more seamless and compliant funding and settlement in 120+ countries
Orbital, the cross-border platform orchestrating payments across stablecoins and traditional rails, has deepened its partnership with global multi-asset broker Eightcap to power the next phase of its global growth. Eightcap is scaling its use of Orbital’s stablecoin payment rails to support seamless and compliant funding and settlement across more than 120 countries, positioning stablecoins as the foundation of its global trading ecosystem.
Eightcap first partnered with Orbital in 2019 and integrated stablecoin payments into its trading platforms in 2020, years ahead of most regulated brokers. The integration manages payment friction and FX risk while enabling near-instant deposits and withdrawals across multiple blockchain networks. The partnership also supports Eightcap’s broader embedded infrastructure ecosystem that allows crypto exchanges and fintechs to offer regulated derivatives trading to their users. Stablecoins now serve as the connective layer across this ecosystem, powering trader deposits, partner settlements and treasury flows.

Eightcap’s next phase of growth focuses on expanding its network of embedded partnerships with major crypto exchanges and fintech platforms. Orbital will continue to provide the stablecoin rails supporting this expansion, enabling secure deposits, settlements and treasury flows as stablecoins become central to the trading experience.
“Eightcap recognised the potential of stablecoins early and executed on it decisively, with Orbital’s infrastructure supporting that journey from the beginning,” said Chris Mason, CEO of Orbital. “Together we’ve shown that cross-chain stablecoin payments can operate at scale, giving institutions the agility of crypto with enterprise-grade standards like SOC2 Type 2 and ISO 27001. By continuously integrating new blockchains and optimising transaction speed and costs, we are setting a new standard for scalable payments infrastructure.”
“Our partnership with Orbital has given us the regulated infrastructure and reliability needed to support both B2C traders and B2B partners across emerging and established markets,” said Patrick Murphy, Chief Operating Officer at Eightcap. “As we expand our embedded partnerships, stablecoins provide a secure and efficient way to fund and settle trading activity across our ecosystem.”
Since launching stablecoin payments, Eightcap has seen usage grow to 10–20% of total deposits globally and up to 40% in key emerging markets such as LATAM and Southeast Asia, where access to traditional banking remains limited and demand for crypto funding is highest. This growth has been driven by the integration of faster, lower-cost blockchain networks including BNB Chain, Polygon, Tron and TON, further improving transaction speed and efficiency.
