Bidirectional flows

Off-ramp, on-ramp, or both

Off-ramp crypto to fiat. On-ramp fiat to stablecoins. Or both, through a single account.

Off-ramp

Crypto-in, fiat-out

Merchant crypto → fiat in your bank account.

  • Crypto in: USDT, USDC, BTC, ETH on all major chains
  • Real-time quote at conversion — no holding period
  • Fiat out via SEPA/SWIFT, ~30 min settlement

On-ramp

Fiat-in, stablecoin-out

Client fiat → USDT/USDC to your wallet.

  • Fiat in via SEPA/SWIFT into FinchTrade's accounts
  • Locked FX rate at execution
  • Stablecoin out on your chain — ERC-20, TRC-20, BSC, Solana, ~30 min settlement

Off-ramp, on-ramp, or both — from a single FinchTrade account.

Why FinchTrade

Built for PSP workflows

API-first integration, capital-efficient funding, and institutional pricing — behind your brand.

Seamless API integration

One API for crypto-to-fiat, crypto-to-crypto, and mass payouts. Trade-to-settle automation, fully integrated.

Flexible funding

30% collateral instead of 100% prefunding — frees working capital.

Institutional spreads

Aggregated liquidity from multiple venues with smart order routing — no front-running, no cross-venue arbitrage pocketing.

Cross-chain stablecoin conversion

USDT and USDC on all major chains, 100+ pairs total. Switch chains mid-flow when your merchant needs it.

24/7 automated workflows

Trade, settle, and reconcile around the clock. Human desk on call for edge cases and non-standard flows.

Customised reporting

Per-transaction FX rate, on-chain hash, and settlement reference. Direct feed into your reconciliation.

See settlement, collateral, and API on your volume.

Treasury efficiency

Margin trading for treasury efficiency

30% collateral per trade — not 100% upfront. Same execution, capital stays on your books.

How it works in practice

Example: a €1M crypto-to-fiat trade

100% prefunding

€1M wired upfront
  • Full notional locked before trade
  • Capital idle until settlement completes

FinchTrade margin trading

€300k collateral at 30%

€700k stays on your books

  • Same €1M trade executes
  • Settlement in ~30 minutes

Case study #1 — FinchTrade x INXY

The problem

INXY enables merchants to accept crypto payments seamlessly, offering mass payouts alongside fiat-to-fiat and crypto-to-crypto conversions.

The key challenge is fast, competitive crypto-to-fiat conversion to reduce market volatility, especially for time-sensitive payments

The solution

  1. Deep liquidity pools for quick, low-slippage conversions, vital for real-time fiat transfers
  2. Human touch with flexibility for non-standard requests. INXY often needed to convert USDT on BSC to TRC-20 and vice versa, which FinchTrade manually ensured beyond standard operations.

Results

  1. INXY’s transaction volume grew by ≈18% monthly, boosting crypto and fiat turnovers to tens of millions
  2. FinchTrade now handles most of INXY’s transactions, surpassing major players as its top liquidity provider with better pricing and reliability

FinchTrade has been instrumental in our growth. Their ability to provide deep liquidity and their flexibility in handling our specific needs have made them our go-to partner.

We’ve seen our transaction volumes soar since we integrated their solutions, and their reliability gives us the confidence to scale further.

Case study #2 — FinchTrade x Cryptix

The problem

Cryptix is a B2B provider of cryptocurrency payment services for merchants. The company faced:

  1. Limited centralised liquidity
  2. Poor customer support and high IT costs from maintaining multiple LP connections
  3. Suboptimal capital use
  4. High counterparty risk due to 100% pre-funding

The solution

  1. Aggregated liquidity and access to deep liquidity pools at better prices
  2. Dedicated account manager
  3. Non-custodial services with flexible settlements, reduced capital requirements (10-20% as collateral)
  4. Transparent pricing with no hidden fees
  5. Robust compliance with our advanced AML/KYC solution

Results

  1. Improved transaction speed and accuracy due to better liquidity and support
  2. A significant share of Cryptix transactions is now executed by FinchTrade, ensuring greater speed, stability, and predictability
