Ripple has made an investment in Notabene, a regulated on-chain transaction network, as the two companies move to expand the use of RLUSD in institutional stablecoin payments.
Under the partnership, RLUSD will be integrated into Notabene Flow, Notabene’s B2B stablecoin payments platform.
The companies will also explore how Notabene’s transaction authorization and compliance infrastructure can complement Ripple Payments.
Notabene operates a network focused on regulated digital asset transactions, connecting more than 2,300 institutions across over 100 jurisdictions. The company said its platform supports more than $2 trillion in annualized transaction volume and provides tools for compliance, counterparty verification, and transaction authorization.
Part of mainstream finance
The collaboration comes as financial institutions increasingly explore stablecoins for payments but face challenges around regulatory requirements, risk management, and verifying transaction counterparties. Notabene’s infrastructure is designed to address these requirements before funds are transferred.
Jack McDonald, SVP of Stablecoin at Ripple, has made it clear that the efficiency of settlement rails is not sufficient enough to make sure that stablecoins become fully mainstream. He added that compliance, identity verification, and transaction authorization remain key factors for broader institutional adoption.

RLUSD, Ripple’s dollar-backed stablecoin, has been expanding across financial and digital asset platforms as the company targets enterprise payment use cases. The partnership with Notabene adds another compliance-focused integration for the stablecoin.
Notabene CEO Pelle Braendgaard said institutions have largely moved beyond evaluating whether to use stablecoins and are now focused on implementing them within existing financial operations while meeting regulatory requirements.
The investment follows broader growth in regulated stablecoin infrastructure, supported by new regulatory frameworks such as the GENIUS Act in the United States and the European Union’s MiCA rules. Ripple and Notabene said they plan to continue expanding Notabene Flow’s availability to financial institutions globally.
