Responsible for Asia Pacific, Budiman will focus on expanding COINPAYMENTS’ merchant and partner network across the region, with an emphasis on stablecoin-enabled cross-border payments for businesses and financial institutions, as COINPAYMENTS continues to pioneer in this market.

Over the course of his career, he has helped businesses and financial institutions harness digital assets to reduce settlement times, lower transaction costs, and improve transparency in global money transfers.
Aaron Budiman, Asia Pacific Regional Director at COINPAYMENTS, said:
“I am thrilled to be joining COINPAYMENTS at such a pivotal stage of its growth journey. The Company’s commitment to enabling businesses and consumers to send, receive, and manage digital currencies easily and securely is second to none, and I look forward to working alongside their talented team as it continues to strengthen its position within the rapidly evolving digital assets ecosystem.
