Tempo, backed by Stripe and Paradigm, integrated Morpho's $7.5 billion DeFi lending marketplace on May 18, 2026. Fintechs and enterprises on Tempo can now lend, borrow, and earn yield on stablecoin balances using curated markets from Gauntlet and Sentora with RedStone oracles. Tempo raised $500 million last year at $5 billion valuation and launched in March 2026 with support from Visa, Mastercard, Revolut, Shopify, Klarna, and UBS. Eric Kang, GTM at Tempo, noted growing enterprise demand for DeFi capabilities in payments products. The integration expands Tempo beyond payments into a full-stack onchain finance platform.
