Payments for licensed iGaming businesses

Treasury conversion, supplier payments and affiliate commissions for licensed operators, platform providers, game studios and affiliates. We understand gaming licences and assess each business on its own merits.

In shortCCYFX provides FX and business payments for licensed iGaming operators, platform providers, game studios and affiliates, including treasury conversion of processor settlements, supplier payments and affiliate payouts. It works with operators licensed by regulators such as the MGA, UKGC, Isle of Man GSC, Gibraltar, Curaçao, Kahnawake and Ontario. It does not process player deposits or withdrawals.

Example client

A Malta-licensed operator with a Curaçao sister brand

Processor settlements arrive in EUR from two payment providers. Each month the operator converts part of the balance to USD and GBP, pays its platform supplier in Poland and its studios in Sweden, and makes a single commission run to around eighty affiliates, each verified once and screened before every run.
