Gnosis Pay: The Last Mile of Stablecoin Payments
The Gnosis platform is the infrastructure behind some of the most widely used stablecoin card programs in the sector. During 2025 it processed $131 million in card spending. Its system enables instant Visa card issuance with built-in KYC/AML compliance, compatibility with Apple Pay and Google Pay, access to SEPA and personal IBANs, all backed by Safe accounts with self-custody.
Friederike Ernst, co-founder and Chief Operating Officer of Gnosis, explained that the integration with Celo aims to solve the last-mile problem: turning stablecoins into real everyday spending. “This integration brings that solution to partners and markets where Celo already has deep roots,” Ernst stated.
For his part, Marek Olszewski, co-founder and CEO of Celo Core Co., highlighted that the arrival of Gnosis Pay establishes a direct path between stablecoin balances and real-world spending. “This expands the utility of stablecoins for everyday commerce. And this is just the beginning,” Olszewski affirmed.
The integration does not modify the self-custody model that sets Gnosis Pay apart from other crypto card solutions, where funds remain under user control. That combination of regulatory compliance and self-custody is the central argument with which the company advances toward new networks, with Celo as the first destination of an expansion that promises to continue.
