Payment Service Providers (PSPs) are under growing pressure to innovate. As merchants demand faster settlement, cheaper cross-border transfers, and alternative payment options, PSPs that can’t deliver risk losing clients to more agile competitors.

One leading PSP saw this shift early. By white-labelling TransFi’s crypto on-ramp infrastructure, it was able to instantly offer USDC and USDT payment capabilities to its entire merchant base — without building blockchain rails from scratch.

The result: new revenue streams, stronger merchant retention, and faster global payouts.

The Challenge: Merchants Wanted Stablecoin Payments

This PSP’s merchants spanned e-commerce, SaaS, travel, and cross-border services. Increasingly, they were asking for:

  • Stablecoin acceptance to reach global customers who preferred crypto over cards.
  • Instant settlement instead of 2–5 day bank delays.
  • Lower cross-border fees for high-volume international transactions.

The PSP’s in-house team faced two roadblocks:

  1. Infrastructure Gap – No blockchain payment rails in place.
  2. Compliance Burden – Global crypto regulations would require significant legal and operational investment.

Without a fast solution, the PSP risked losing high-value merchants to competitors already offering crypto payments.

Why the PSP Chose TransFi’s White-Label Solution

After assessing multiple providers, the PSP partnered with TransFi because:

  • White-Label Capability – Complete branding control, so the PSP could present it as its own crypto product.
  • Global Payment Coverage – Local rails in 60+ countries for fiat-to-stablecoin and stablecoin-to-fiat conversions.
  • Instant Merchant Payouts – Settle transactions within minutes.
  • Turnkey Compliance – Licensed and regulated infrastructure covering multiple jurisdictions.
  • Simple API Integration – Deploy in weeks, not months.

How the Integration Works

Once integrated, the PSP’s merchants gained a seamless checkout and settlement flow:

  1. Customer Pays in USDC, USDT, or via local fiat methods.
  2. TransFi Converts payments between fiat and stablecoins instantly.
  3. Merchant Wallet Credited in preferred currency — stablecoin or local fiat.
  4. PSP Dashboard shows all transactions under the PSP’s brand.

From the merchant’s perspective, it’s just another payment method — but under the hood, TransFi’s blockchain infrastructure powers it all.

The Results – New Revenue, Happier Merchants

Within 90 days of launch:

  • 1,200+ Merchants Enabled for crypto payments.
  • $18M in New Payment Volume in the first quarter.
  • 35% Faster Settlement for cross-border transactions.
  • Retention Boost as merchants adopted new payment capabilities instead of seeking outside providers.

A PSP executive commented:

“White-labelling TransFi gave us a future-proof product in weeks. Our merchants think we built the crypto rails ourselves — and that’s exactly how we want it.”

Why White-Label Crypto On-Ramps Make Sense for PSPs

By white-labelling TransFi, PSPs get the speed of integration and compliance assurance they need, while keeping their brand front-and-center. Benefits include:

  • Faster Time to Market – Launch crypto services in weeks.
  • No Heavy Lifting – Skip blockchain development and licensing headaches.
  • Merchant Stickiness – Keep clients in your ecosystem.
  • Scalable Infrastructure – Support global expansion without major upgrades.

Conclusion

In a payments market moving toward digital assets, PSPs that can’t offer stablecoin and crypto payment options risk losing relevance. This case shows how white-labelling TransFi’s on-ramp allowed a PSP to transform merchant capabilities, capture new revenue, and strengthen market position — all without disrupting existing operations.
