Momentum Builds: Mastercard, UBS, Klarna Join Tempo as New Design Partners

[johnblockbuster]

Tempo’s testnet debut isn’t its only milestone — the network has rapidly expanded its roster of high-profile design partners. After unveiling with names like OpenAI, Deutsche Bank, Standard Chartered, and Shopify, Tempo has since signed on Mastercard, UBS, Kalshi, and Klarna.
Klarna became the first digital bank to issue a USD-pegged stablecoin on Tempo late last month, signaling strong institutional interest in the payments-focused chain. With the public testnet now live and major partners onboard, Tempo is positioning itself as a next-generation settlement layer for global finance.
