The World Series made history, returning to Canada after 32 years, and the momentum went far beyond the field. According to Visa’s Spending Momentum Index (SMI), October saw a clear boost in consumer activity tied to the games: 🍽️ Spending surged at restaurants, sports bars, and grocery stores. 🛍️ The SMI rose 0.4 points, signaling steady spending heading into the holiday season. ⚾ It was a grand slam for discretionary spending on sporting goods, venues, and travel. Scroll through to see how sports excitement translated into economic growth. #WorldSeries #EconomicInsights #VisaSMI

Last week at the Singapore FinTech Festival, Chris Newkirk spoke to CNBC on how stablecoins are set to advance global money movement, with Visa a hyperscaler at the heart of this shift. As the GENIUS Act provides clear rules for stablecoin adoption in the US and around the world, what is important is how Visa is integrating stablecoin capabilities into the Visa-as-a-Service stack so more people and businesses can pay and move money seamlessly – including stablecoin-linked cards for consumers to spend stablecoins at Visa-accepting merchants worldwide, helping clients to integrate stablecoins into their business, and enabling stablecoin payments to wallets through Visa Direct.

At the Singapore FinTech Festival last week, T.R Ramachandran, Head of Products and Solutions at Visa Asia Pacific spoke to Channel News Asia on how we are enabling two converging technologies in commerce – AI and stablecoins. In Ram’s words, Asia Pacific has been ground zero for payment innovations in the last decade. AI and stablecoins will be no different. Visa is completing the agentic shopping experience with trusted solutions like tokenisation, payment authentication, as well as new, built-for-agentic capabilities like payment signals that make sure agents only transact on exactly what consumers instruct them to. On stablecoins, Asia Pacific benefits from a strong regulatory landscape in Hong Kong and Singapore with more on the way, paving the way for stablecoins to be integrated into economies. Visa is powering this future of programmable money by enabling new use cases with partners like Nium catering to fast-rising demand by clients, partners, and consumers.
