Stablecoin remittances are taking a new step forward with a partnership between TRM Labs and Zepz. The collaboration supports the global expansion of the Sendwave Wallet, a stablecoin product built on Solana.
Zepz, the company behind WorldRemit and Sendwave, serves migrant communities across 130+ countries. TRM Labs will provide blockchain intelligence to support financial crime risk management. Together, they aim to scale digital asset-based remittances responsibly across global markets.
Sendwave Wallet Targets Migrant Communities Worldwide
Zepz transferred more than $17 billion for its customers in 2025. The company primarily serves migrant workers who send money to family members monthly.
Many of those recipients live in regions with currency instability or limited banking access. The Sendwave Wallet was built directly in response to those needs.
Launched in October 2025, the wallet operates on the Solana blockchain. It enables customers to send and store USDC across more than 100 countries.
Transfers are near-instant, affordable, and reliable within the Sendwave ecosystem. This gives migrant workers a faster alternative to traditional remittance channels.
TRM Labs described the partnership on X, noting that stablecoins are changing how remittances work. The firm noted that the Sendwave Wallet was designed to support migrant communities globally.
It also confirmed that blockchain intelligence would help strengthen risk management as the platform scales. The post further addressed compliance support as Zepz enters new markets.
Rather than converting funds immediately into local currency, customers can hold USDC. They decide when and how to cash out based on current market conditions.
This feature is especially useful in countries facing frequent currency fluctuations. The model offers more financial control compared to traditional remittance services.
TRM Labs Embeds Compliance Tools into Stablecoin Infrastructure
TRM Labs began working with Zepz in April 2025 on its stablecoin products. The company helped design financial crime controls for the Sendwave Wallet infrastructure.
These controls address sanctions risk, anti-money laundering requirements, and transaction monitoring. Integrating these tools from the start creates a stronger compliance foundation.
TRM’s blockchain intelligence platform enables real-time monitoring of on-chain activity. It helps organizations detect illicit transactions and manage risk across digital assets.
As Zepz expands into new markets, these capabilities become increasingly necessary. Global regulators are paying closer attention to digital asset-based payment platforms.
Will Bell, Business Lead at TRM Labs, shared his perspective on the collaboration. He said the platform helps organizations monitor activity in real time and manage risk exposure.
Bell added that Zepz is combining payment innovation with strong operational safeguards. He noted the goal is to scale digital asset products in line with regulatory expectations.
Zaheer Jassat, VP of Product at Zepz, also commented on the collaboration. He said customers trust Zepz with something personal — supporting family members across borders.
Partnering with TRM, he noted, strengthens Zepz’s ability to manage risk responsibly. Customers can now send, store, and spend stablecoins with greater confidence.
