Remi, a company specializing in cross-border payment infrastructure and settlement solutions, has launched its new platform, "Remura," during its participation in the Stellar Meridian 2026 conference in Lisbon, Portugal. The platform offers an advanced technological infrastructure that enables regulated financial institutions to execute stablecoin transactions confidentially over the Stellar network, backed by integrated supervisory tools to ensure transaction traceability and regulatory compliance.

The announcement was made during a presentation by Mohamed Abdou, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer at Remi. He explained that Remura addresses one of the primary hurdles facing banks and money transfer operators: the risk of exposing financial data and balances on public blockchain networks. The platform is the result of a development initiative funded by a grant from the Stellar Community Fund, officially transitioning from project phase to an independent product currently available on the Stellar test network (Testnet).

Data Privacy with Auditability and Regulatory Compliance

Remura allows institutions to leverage the speed of stablecoin settlement without broadcasting transaction volumes, wallet balances, or counterparty details to competitors or the public. The platform employs permissioned audit keys, allowing authorized regulatory and supervisory bodies to inspect records as needed. The company emphasized that the system does not anonymize participants; sender and receiver data, as well as transfer amounts, remain fully traceable for compliance and regulatory purposes—resolving the public blockchain transparency issue that previously hindered adoption by conservative financial institutions.

Treasury Management and API Integration

The platform incorporates advanced treasury management tools, allowing institutions to separate public and private treasuries and manage transfers via a unified interface. It also enables stablecoin redemption into traditional fiat currencies deposited directly into bank accounts. Furthermore, Remura seamlessly integrates with existing financial operating systems (such as core banking, compliance, and treasury systems) through a single API, eliminating the need to build a separate tech infrastructure.

Enhancing Remi's Cross-Border Network

The new platform connects directly to Remi's core infrastructure, which relies on a network of banks and money transfer companies to settle cross-border payments for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and individuals. Ahmed Amer, Co-Founder and CEO of Remi, stated that Remura delivers the speed and privacy institutions require, while additional volume flows are settled through Remi's broader network.

Remura is currently preparing to transition to the main network (Mainnet) while accepting early access applications from banks, money transfer operators, and payment service providers. Remi operates out of the UAE, Canada, Egypt, and Morocco. It recently secured a money transmitter license in Canada and joined the sixth cohort of the Visa Africa FinTech Accelerator.
