SoFi Technologies and Payward, the parent company of Kraken, announced on September 3, 2026 a strategic partnership structured around three pillars: Payward’s integration into the SoFi Exchange Network (SEN), the listing of the SoFiUSD stablecoin on Kraken, and the use of Kraken Prime as the execution engine for SoFi’s 15.8 million customers’ orders.
