Israeli New Shekel on U.CASH

The Israeli new shekel is the currency of a major tech-export economy and one of the more-traded non-major currencies. It settles internationally by SWIFT and clears natively on both card processors.

Rails settle it at checkout; pegged tokens settle it on-chain. Both live on the same non-custodial U.CASH checkout.
