Crypto-funded cards and a card-issuing platform

The client provides payments, custody and card issuing. It wanted a card its retail customers could spend from a crypto balance, and then a way for other businesses to run card programs of their own on the same stack.

Funding a card from crypto is harder than it sounds. The balance sits in stablecoins, the card settles in fiat, and every step has to fit card-scheme rules and the issuer's compliance.

We started with the retail card program: the systems analysis, the solution design, and the integrations with card issuers and stablecoin platforms behind it.

Then we turned that stack into a B2B issuing platform. Doing it once was a product; letting other businesses launch on it meant a second layer of onboarding, limits and reporting. We also managed the partners across issuers and stablecoin platforms.

Both products are live: the crypto-funded card program, and the platform businesses use to launch and run their own programs.
