Meet us at SiGMA Rome

More approved deposits start with one meeting in Rome

Our CEO Stefan and Head of BD Ivan are at SiGMA Rome all week. In 20 minutes we'll show you which of our 35+ acquirers fit your model — and how to keep deposits flowing when one says no.

What we'll cover in 20 minutes
✓Which acquirers are approving operators like you this quarter
✓Where your approval rate is leaking — FTDs, BINs, geos
✓A second and third acquirer so one decline never stops deposits
✓Alternatives to cards: BTC Lightning and SEPA Direct Debit
35+Acquirers in one network
35+Years of combined experience
150+Currencies your players can pay in
1K+Merchant accounts opened
Why operators book us

If any of these sound familiar, we should meet

01

One PSP, one point of failure

A single MID shutdown or rolling reserve change stops deposits overnight. We place you with 2+ acquirers so traffic cascades when one declines.

02

FTDs declining at the worst moment

First deposits are where players are won or lost. Smart retries, BIN routing and the right MCC 7995 setup put more of them through.

03

Applications that go nowhere

Offshore licences get turned away by policy, and weeks pass waiting on banks. We already know which acquirers say yes this quarter — and which never will.

Acquirer matchmaking

One application. 35+ acquirers. We find the ones that will say yes.

Instead of sending your application to every bank and waiting weeks, we narrow the network down in three passes — so the acquirers you meet already want your business.

< 8hto a first answer on your application

Illustrative example for an iGaming operator. Acquirers are anonymised.

Pass 1

Acceptance policies

We rule out every acquirer whose policy already says no to your licence, registration country or game type — before you waste an application.

Pass 2

Live approval signals

The rest are ranked on what they actually approved this quarter for operators like you — recent approvals up, recent declines down.

Pass 3

An underwriter signs off

A payments specialist confirms the shortlist and tells you honestly whether the application is bankable — and with whom.

Built for iGaming

One PCI DSS Level 1 gateway. Every acquirer behind it.

Once you're placed, the gateway keeps deposits approving and payouts moving — across acquirers, currencies and methods.

Smart retry & BIN routing

Real-time BIN analysis sends each card to the acquirer most likely to approve it, by geography and currency.

Multi-acquirer cascade

If one acquirer declines, the transaction moves to the next — with health monitoring and load balancing across your MIDs.

Instant push-to-card payouts

Winnings land on players' cards via Visa Direct and Mastercard Send, with risk scoring and fallback routes built in.

One-click deposits

PCI-compliant card vaulting lets returning players top up in a tap, synced across devices.

Wallets & local APMs

Apple Pay, Google Pay and 20+ global and local payment methods — subject to acquirer and market.

Fraud & chargeback control

Gaming-specific risk rules, real-time monitoring, chargeback alerts and dispute tools, with 3D Secure and SCA.

Plugs into your stack:Pre-integrated with PaymentIQ, Praxis and Payneteasy·Hosted checkout (SAQ-A eligible)·Server-to-server API & mobile SDKs
Beyond cards

Alternative rails for when cards under-perform

Cards stay your core. These sit alongside them at checkout, so a decline or a nervous issuer doesn't cost you the deposit.

Instant · no chargebacks

BTC Lightning

Bitcoin payments over the Lightning Network, confirmed in seconds and final once completed. Players pay from wallets like Cash App, Coinbase, Wallet of Satoshi and Zeus.

How it works for operators →
Bank-to-bank · EUR

SEPA Direct Debit

Collect euro payments straight from players' bank accounts across the SEPA zone — no card issuer in the middle to decline the transaction.

Availability depends on your licence, markets and partner appetite.
BTC Lightning for iGaming

Instant settlement. No chargebacks. Less dependency on card providers.

Lightning gives sweepstakes and iGaming operators instant deposits with less friction in restricted or high-risk environments — and real-time, cross-border payments your players can make from apps they already use.
