2026 Q2 Newsletter

Here’s what we shipped in the second quarter of 2026.

Money movement

  • We launched managed compliance for platforms. In this model, you can delegate KYC and transaction monitoring to Increase and our bank partners instead of running them yourself. This makes launching a new product and program faster and easier than ever before on Increase, while preserving the optionality to graduate to sponsor banking as you grow.
  • Blockchain transfers are now in beta. Send and receive USDC from an Increase account, Increase handles the conversion to/from USD to stablecoin for you in minutes.
  • FedNow is live for all users. FedNow enables real-time clearing and settlement of domestic transactions within seconds, 24/7, directly through the Federal Reserve.
