Stablecoin funding allows you to pay Deel invoices using digital dollars (stablecoins) USDC, and USDT, directly from your crypto wallet or an exchange.
This method enables faster, more predictable global payments without relying on traditional banking rails, while still settling invoices in USD at a guaranteed 1:1 rate.
Stablecoin payments on Deel are a preferred option for urgent or last-minute payroll, offering faster settlement compared to traditional bank transfers. They can be used alongside card, bank transfer, and Coinbase-based crypto payment options.
Why Use Stablecoins to Pay Deel Invoices?
Paying with stablecoins is helpful if you:
- Instant settlement to fund payroll on time
- Hold funds in crypto and want to avoid off-ramping to fiat
- Operate in regions with slow or unreliable banking
Stablecoins combine the speed of blockchain payments with the price stability of USD.

- Choose a supported stablecoin (USDC or USDT)
- Select a supported blockchain network
- Deel generates a unique deposit address for your organization
