Turnkey X Brale: Policy-controlled stablecoin flows for builders. June 22, 2026 Turnkey x Brale Build policy-controlled stablecoin flows with Brale and Turnkey, from wallet provisioning to USD funding and stablecoin transfers. What is the solution? Turnkey wallets with Brale help builders create secure, programmable stablecoin flows. What does it solve? Stablecoin infrastructure requires more than access to issuance and transfer rails. Teams also need secure wallet creation, controlled signing, policy enforcement, and a clear way to connect fiat funding to stablecoin movement. How does it solve this? Brale provides the infrastructure for regulated stablecoin issuance, reserve management, onramps, offramps, funding, and transfers through a unified API. Turnkey provides the wallet creation, transaction signing, and policy controls needed to operate those flows securely. Who is it built for? Teams building stablecoin products, including fintech developers, payments companies, treasury platforms, marketplaces, embedded finance teams, and crypto applications that need secure, programmable stablecoin infrastructure without building custom wallet security from scratch. Stablecoin infrastructure is becoming a core part of how teams move money onchain. Builders need a way to accept fiat, mint stablecoins, manage transfers, and send payouts without turning wallet security into a custom infrastructure project. That's why Turnkey has partnered with Brale, a stablecoin platform, to publish a new cookbook detailing how developers can combine Brale's stablecoin rails with Turnkey's secure wallet infrastructure. The result is a practical starting point for teams that want to accept USD, automatically mint stablecoins, and send onchain payouts using policy-controlled wallets. Building stablecoin operations with Brale and Turnkey. Developers can use Turnkey wallets with Brale to build stablecoin flows from wallet provisioning and policy-controlled signing to inbound USD funding and stablecoin transfers. Brale provides the platform layer for stablecoin issuance, funding, and transfers. Turnkey provides the wallet creation, signing, and policy controls needed to operate those flows securely. Using both, builders can create programmable stablecoin workflows that are easier to launch and safer to run in production. The guide covers a practical flow: * Use Turnkey to provision an EVM address and constrain signing with a Turnkey policy. * Register that address in Brale as an Address. * Use Brale to fund the address through an inbound USD Automation. * Use Brale to send stablecoins out through a direct Transfer. Teams can accept USD, automatically mint stablecoins, and send stablecoin transfers using policy-controlled wallets. Why this matters for stablecoin builders. Every mint, transfer, payout, and onchain movement depends on a wallet that can produce a valid signature. If that signing path is too broad, too manual, or too exposed, the payment flow becomes harder to secure as volume grows. Turnkey helps teams build stablecoin operations where signing can be scoped to the application's requirements. Developers can create wallets, assign access, and define policies that limit what a signer is allowed to do before a transaction is approved. That matters for teams building automated stablecoin systems. A backend service, operator account, or automated workflow should not have unlimited signing authority by default. With Turnkey policies, teams can constrain signing around the specific contracts, addresses, users, or flows their application needs. Policy-controlled wallets for programmable stablecoin flows. In the cookbook example, the Turnkey policy restricts a signer to a small allowlist of contracts. Developers can replace that allowlist with the specific rules their application needs. This example reveals the main difference between simply connecting to a stablecoin API and building a controlled stablecoin system. The application can automate funding and payouts while the signing layer still enforces boundaries before assets move. For production teams, that means stablecoin operations can be: * Secure, because private key operations stay inside Turnkey's TEE-protected wallet infrastructure. * Programmable, because Brale exposes stablecoin issuance, funding, and transfers through APIs. * Controlled, because Turnkey policies can restrict signing based on the application's requirements. * Operational, because teams can reconcile inbound and outbound activity through Brale Transfers. That combination gives teams a more practical foundation for building stablecoin infrastructure that can move quickly without giving automated workflows unchecked signing authority. A practical starting point for secure stablecoin infrastructure. The Brale cookbook is built for teams that want to move from concept to implementation quickly. Rather than starting with separate wallet setup, policy configuration, fiat funding logic, stablecoin minting, and transfer orchestration, the guide shows how the pieces fit together in one flow. Brale handles the stablecoin platform layer. Turnkey handles wallet creation and signing. The result is a pattern builders can use to create secure stablecoin flows with stronger control over how transactions are authorized. Start building with Turnkey and Brale. Brale and Turnkey give builders a combined foundation for programmable stablecoin flows. Brale provides the stablecoin platform layer for issuance, funding, transfers, and reconciliation, while Turnkey provides the secure wallet infrastructure for wallet creation, policy-controlled signing, and protected private key operations. Together, the partnership helps teams connect fiat funding to stablecoin movement without treating wallet security as a separate infrastructure project. Builders can create stablecoin flows where money can move programmatically, while signing remains constrained by the policies their application requires. For teams building payments, treasury, embedded finance, or onchain settlement products, Brale and Turnkey make it easier to launch stablecoin infrastructure that is secure, programmable, and ready for production.

Ripple USD (RLUSD) reaches $900 million as Brale brings regulated stablecoins to XRP Ledger. * Brale has launched regulated stablecoin support directly on the XRP Ledger (XRPL). * The integration enables fintechs to issue and manage USD-backed stablecoins like Ripple USD (RLUSD) within a compliant system. * RLUSD has reached nearly $900 million in circulation since its launch in late 2024. Brale has officially announced that regulated stablecoins are now live on the XRP Ledger (XRPL), marking a key step in connecting traditional finance with blockchain. The new feature allows businesses to issue and manage stablecoins directly on XRPL, creating programmable, compliant digital dollars on one of the most established payment networks in crypto. The XRP Ledger, known for its low-cost and high-speed settlement, now supports Brale's stablecoin issuance and management tools. With this addition, companies can use Brale's API to create, manage, and settle stablecoins backed by U.S. dollars or other supported currencies. The same API also provides on-ramps, off-ramps, and wallet infrastructure, enabling seamless custody and settlement for financial institutions and payment providers. This integration opens the door for fintechs, payment service providers (PSPs), and corporates to move their existing financial operations on-chain, with Brale's technology managing compliance and reserve transparency. Ripple USD (RLUSD) expands reach across networks. As part of this collaboration, Brale now supports Ripple's USD-backed stablecoin, RLUSD, which operates on both XRPL and Ethereum. This expansion allows faster, regulated transfers of digital dollars globally. Businesses can now use RLUSD for settlements, payments, and treasury operations in a regulated and transparent way. Each RLUSD token is backed 1:1 by U.S. dollar deposits and cash equivalents, ensuring reliability and stability. Since its late 2024 debut, RLUSD's circulation has climbed to nearly $900 million. Its growing adoption across decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms, Ripple's payment solutions, and institutional networks signals increasing demand for trusted digital dollar assets. Ripple's Stablecoin Product Lead, Lauren Berta, noted that stablecoins are rapidly changing how value moves across borders and industries, positioning XRPL at the center of this transformation. Building a trusted bridge between finance and blockchain. In combination with Brale, XRPL, and RLUSD, create a regulated, scalable digital payments framework that can be used on a global scale. Brale brings with it licensed issuing and stablecoin administration infrastructure, while XRPL adds speed with built-in controls over compliance. These controls would allow issuers to determine who is qualified to possess or move assets, aligning blockchain functioning with regulatory requirements. The partnership sheds light on regulated stablecoins as reducing real-time settlement complexity, promoting greater transparency, and boosting access to finance.

In the U.S., Brale, a fintech startup, raised $30 million in a seed round led by Lightspeed Venture Partners, also closing on September 18th.
