NEW YORK, June 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- GMO-Z.com Trust Company, Inc. ("GMO Trust"), the New York-based, regulated stablecoin subsidiary of Japanese Internet conglomerate GMO Internet Group ("GMO Group"), announced a partnership with Wyre, Inc. ("Wyre"), the payment company powered by blockchain.

Wyre provides developers around the world with a compliant, stable foundation for digital asset payment integrations. By facilitating in-platform on and off ramping, Wyre's APIs will shorten the distance between GYEN and its end users, giving developers the tools they need to integrate GYEN into applications anyone can use.

These capabilities offer financial technology companies and digital asset firms the benefits from using regulated digital fiat to power their businesses, which are significantly faster and more cost efficient than traditional fiat.
