SoFi and Kraken parent Payward are linking their banking and crypto infrastructure through a new partnership that will give Kraken customers access to SoFiUSD and its 24/7 dollar settlement network.

Under the agreement, SoFi will use Kraken Prime for crypto liquidity, while Payward will join SoFi’s Exchange Network and gain access to its business banking services. The deal brings banking and crypto trading infrastructure closer together as both companies expand their institutional businesses.

We’re proud to join @SoFi in bringing banking and crypto markets closer together.

Through the partnership:
→ Payward joins the SoFi Exchange Network
→ SoFiUSD is coming to @KrakenFX
→ SoFi will route member crypto orders through @KrakenPrimeHQ
