Request Network Enables One-Click Cross-Chain Mass Payouts Across 6 EVM Chains and Tron

Crypto payment infrastructure takes a leap as Request Network launches one-click mass payouts. For DeFi projects, DAOs, and Web3 companies managing global payment flows, the ability to pay contributors or vendors on their preferred chain without manual bridging or swapping represents a critical unlock. This update directly addresses the fragmentation that has plagued cross-chain stablecoin disbursements.

On June 25, 2026, the Request Network Foundation announced a substantial upgrade to its stablecoin payment platform: one-click cross-chain mass payouts across six major EVM chains and Tron, paired with compliance-enhancing wallet screening through an integration with Merkle Science. Delivered via a press release, the announcement underscores Request Network’s ambition to become a foundational layer for global stablecoin disbursements. The new feature allows any user—from a small DAO to a large fintech—to send batched payments in USDC or USDT from a single wallet, with the platform automatically handling all necessary bridging and token swaps to deliver funds to recipients on their chosen chain.

As of the announcement, REQ trades around $0.12 with a market cap near $125 million—a modest valuation for a project targeting the multi-trillion-dollar payments market.

The core problem being addressed is the operational friction that has accompanied the explosive growth of stablecoin-based payments. While sending value in stablecoins is faster and cheaper than traditional fiat rails, the recipient is not always on the same network. A payroll run might need to pay employees on Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, and BNB Chain, each requiring the sender to hold separate token balances and execute multiple transactions, often manually bridging or swapping. The Request Network solution collapses this complexity into a single transaction signature. According to the Foundation, the protocol retrieves and batches bridge and swap quotes from liquidity sources, then funnels each payment to its correct destination chain and token. As described, the system abstracts away all chain-level differences, a significant UX leap for crypto-native and traditional businesses alike.

The integration of Merkle Science, a well-known blockchain analytics firm, adds a compliance dimension to the payout functionality. By screening destination wallets against risk databases, businesses can adhere to anti-money laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) requirements before initiating disbursements. This moves the platform beyond simple transaction monitoring into proactive compliance—a necessity for organizations that must demonstrate regulatory adherence. The dual addition of mass payouts and wallet screening could position Request Network as a one-stop shop for organizations seeking to scale stablecoin operations while managing jurisdictional risks.

For the crypto sector, the update represents another step toward making DeFi-adjacent tools viable for mainstream business payments. The inclusion of Tron is particularly shrewd given its dominance in USDT circulation and its low-cost transaction environment, which is attractive for micro-disbursements. The supported EVM chains cover the most active DeFi ecosystems, ensuring broad reach. However, as the announcement is conveyed entirely through a press release, the actual performance and security of the automated bridging and swapping layer remain to be independently verified. Reliance on third-party bridges introduces smart contract risk and potential liquidity constraints, and the platform’s ability to batch large numbers of payments without failure or significant slippage is critical for adoption.
