Toss Bank Partners With Solana to Explore Blockchain Payments

Toss Bank and the Solana Foundation signed a memorandum of understanding on June 19, 2026 at Toss Bank’s Sinnonhyeon office to develop blockchain solutions for fast, low-cost global finance services for the bank’s approximately 15 million customers. This is the first direct one-to-one strategic partnership between a South Korean internet-only bank and the Solana Foundation.

The MOU outlines several areas of cooperation, including a proof-of-concept for Solana-based remittance and settlement systems, stablecoin testing for overseas transfers, and evaluation of blockchain payment and settlement models, according to Solana’s announcement. The parties will also explore what financial products can be built using tokenized and digital assets.
