OwlTing Unveils Integration with Stellar to Support USDC Stablecoin on OwlPay® Wallet Pro

Published

on

TAIPEI, Aug. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — OwlTing Group, a global blockchain fintech company headquartered in Taiwan, today announced that its digital wallet solution, OwlPay® Wallet Pro (the “Wallet”) has integrated with the Stellar blockchain to support the Stellar USDC stablecoin. The Wallet is now available both for iOS and Android on Apple’s App Store and Google Play Store in the U.S., offering a legal, compliant, and seamless cross-border transaction experience for enterprises and individual users.

OwlPay® Wallet Pro supports the USDC stablecoin on Stellar, along with five[1] other major blockchains. The integration expands the reach of OwlPay®’s payment platform through the Stellar network, which is expected to continue its growth in the user base by tapping into more than 8 million accounts on Stellar with over US$1.6B total payments volume for all real-world assets.

This integration enables OwlPay® to join the Stellar ecosystem and foster synergies among the leading developers to bring most the world’s main currencies together seamlessly on one platform. This was incorporated by a strategic investment from the Stellar Development Foundation (SDF). SDF’s investment is part of the recently closed financing round of the OwlTing Group raising an aggregate amount in the eight figures in USD among investors from the U.S., Japan, the U.K., and Taiwan.

Darren Wang, Founder and CEO of OwlTing Group, expressed his excitement about the dynamics, stating, “Our collaboration with the Stellar Development Foundation marks a significant step forward for OwlPay®. Integrating the Stellar blockchain into our Wallet opens up access to Stellar network users in the U.S. This presents a tremendous opportunity for OwlTing to expand our user base and enhance our market presence. We are excited to leverage this partnership to bring OwlTing’s innovative cross-border payment solutions to a broader community.”

Beyond the wide geographical reach, a key advantage of OwlPay® Wallet Pro would be staying compliant with regulations. OwlTing currently holds Money Transmitter Licenses (MTL) from 28 states[2] in the U.S., allowing it to serve both corporate customers across 46 states and individuals in these 28 states. The Company leverages AI-enhanced compliance partners to implement measures for customer due diligence and anti-money laundering, ensuring users to transact both fiat and stablecoin with the Wallet properly.

Integrated with the Stellar network, OwlPay® Wallet Pro offers another key advantage of streamlined transaction process for users. OwlPay® users are not required to acquire Stellar Lumens (XLM) to pay for the transaction expenses, such as the account activation fee (Sponsored Reserves) and the transaction fee (Fee-bump). Instead, those expenses are charged in fiat currency, greatly simplifying the process and eliminating the need to exchange fiat for another cryptocurrency.

To better transfer different financial assets across regions or payment systems, Stellar allows Anchors[3], entities that bridge their payment services to the network to unite the fiat and digital asset economies, to form a new global payment standard. This enables OwlPay® to offer users an accessible entry into a state-licensed and secure self-hosted payment wallet on the Stellar network, providing a direct on-off ramp solution for sending and receiving stablecoins within the U.S.

“Going forward, OwlTing is well-positioned to become one of the Stellar Anchor Directory members,” said Darren Wang, “Through this collaboration, OwlTing will join in the efforts of building a global network with Stellar, empowering users to access cross-border payments with a compliant and ready-to-use solution, and to explore the possibilities of optimizing payment flows in the Web3 environment.”

Delta Air Lines to sponsor Play Yellow Sunday, celebrating local patient families and supporting Dell Children’s Medical Center through Children’s Miracle Network

AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Play Yellow, a fundraising program of Children’s Miracle Network (CMN), is excited to be part of the inaugural Austin Championship presented by Compliance Solutions, bringing its mission of supporting children’s healthcare to the course and the local community. Proceeds from the tournament will benefit Play Yellow and provide significant support to the local children’s hospital, Dell Children’s Medical Center, and the surrounding community.

Play Yellow unites the golf community to support children’s healthcare across the U.S. and Canada. Founded through a partnership between Jack and Barbara Nicklaus, Children’s Miracle Network and the PGA Tour, Play Yellow invites golfers, tournaments and fans to turn their passion for the game into life-changing care.

“Our partnership with the PGA Tour and events like the Austin Championship presented by Compliance Solutions reminds us what’s possible when a community comes together for kids,” said Becca Evans, National Director of Play Yellow, Children’s Miracle Network. “We’re grateful for every golfer, fan, and partner who helps make big change for all kids.”

Delta Air Lines Sponsors Play Yellow Sunday

Delta Air Lines is sponsoring Play Yellow Sunday. By wearing yellow and fundraising through golf, the Play Yellow community elevates the level of care at local children’s hospitals.

Ten patient families will join Children’s Miracle Network on the course, wearing caddie bibs featuring the Delta Air Lines logo. Some children will have the opportunity to walk a hole alongside a PGA Tour professional, while others will join the action by helping as honorary caddies on the 18th green. Among the participating children is Jett Payne, the local Children’s Miracle Network champion.

After a difficult delivery, Jett began experiencing seizures and was transferred to Dell Children’s Medical Center, where an MRI revealed multiple strokes that likely occurred before or during birth. He spent 12 days in the Neuro-NICU, where specialized care helped stabilize his seizures and support his recovery. Today, Jett is a thriving 2-year-old who is walking, talking, and exceeding milestones. He will be joined by his parents, Ryann and Brad Payne, and his brother, Briggs, age 9.

Supporting Dell Children’s Medical Center

Dell Children’s, a hospital within Children’s Miracle Network, has partnered with CMN for nearly 40 years. Since opening in 2007, Dell Children’s Medical Center has served as Central Texas’s only freestanding pediatric Level I trauma center, bringing world-class children’s healthcare to families in their own community. From pediatric heart and bone marrow transplants to expanding access to pediatric mental health care, Dell Children’s continues to advance what’s possible for children across Central Texas.

“Every day at Dell Children’s, we see the difference that access to specialized pediatric care makes in the lives of children and their families,” said Megan Campuzano, Senior Director, Annual Giving, Dell Children’s Medical Center. “The generosity of our community supports that care, allowing us to expand what we can do for children across Central Texas. We are grateful to Play Yellow, Children’s Miracle Network, the PGA Tour, and every supporter making this event a reality. It is meaningful to see our patient families recognized on such a special stage and to have our community unite behind a brighter future for all kids.”

Play Yellow Ambassadors Lead the Way

Helping bring the CMN mission to life on the course, Play Yellow’s ambassadors Patrick Fishburn, Hank Lebioda, Justin Lower, Kevin Roy, Max McGreevy, Peter Malnati, and Neal Shipley will also take the course in Austin, continuing to use their platforms to rally golfers, fans, sponsors, and communities around the shared mission of supporting children’s healthcare.
