Tether and HoneyCoin collaborate to expand stablecoin access across Africa. 9 December 2025 - Tether, the largest company in the digital asset industry, and HoneyCoin, one of the fastest-growing African fintech platforms on a mission to build the operating system for money movement in frontier markets, are announcing a strategic collaboration aimed at accelerating access to digital assets across Africa. HoneyCoin provides innovative solutions for cost-effective storage, transfer, and exchange of value globally. By leveraging blockchain technology and traditional financial infrastructure, the company is addressing long-standing challenges in cross-border transactions, such as high costs, delays, and inefficiencies. As part of this collaboration, HoneyCoin will launch a cashless point-of-sale (POS) platform with USD₮ payments, enabling merchants to accept stablecoins directly at checkout. This development expands payment options for shoppers while helping merchants increase sales and customer convenience. Additionally, HoneyCoin will integrate USD₮ into its growing ecosystem, enabling merchants to make online and in-person payments across Africa and globally at lower costs, thereby facilitating trade and payments.
