GalaxiaMoneytree attended with its Blockchain-focused subsidiary Galaxia Metaverse and discussed the potential use of stablecoin-based payment and settlement infrastructure (infrastructure) with counterparts from domestic and overseas finance, payments, and digital asset corporations including Circle. It plans to broaden the scope of cooperation with Circle and jointly seek new digital finance services that consolidation existing electronic payment infrastructure with global stablecoin infrastructure.

GalaxiaMoneytree provides a variety of payment services, including mobile phone payments, credit cards, account transfers, gift certificates, and convenience store payments, and has expanded mobile finance and payment services centered on the Moneytree lifestyle finance platform. In particular, the "Moneytree Card" has grown to the level of about 300 billion won in annual top-ups and payments.

By linking the "Money Club" operated by Galaxia Metaverse with the Moneytree app, it has also built experience combining financial services with a Blockchain-based virtual asset ecosystem, such as rewarding Moneytree Card users with Galaxia (GXA). Based on its experience in payments and platform operations, it plans to gradually review collaborative projects that link global stablecoin infrastructure with domestic payment services and virtual asset-based rewards services.

A GalaxiaMoneytree official said, "Taking into comprehensive consideration domestic regulatory compliance, user protection, and convenient payment experiences, we will prepare a service model that allows stablecoins to be used safely in everyday life."
