Crypto Payment Gateway for Forex & CFD Brokers

CryptoNow is a crypto payment gateway for forex and CFD brokers that lets you take client deposits and pay out profits in 35+ tokens across 15 networks, settled directly to your own wallet from a 0.5% system fee, with payouts you can run from your CRM. Because settlement is non-custodial, deposits and withdrawals land in wallets you control — there are no frozen balances, no rolling reserves, and no chargebacks on confirmed payments.

A crypto payment gateway for brokers is the infrastructure that generates deposit addresses, credits client funds, and pushes withdrawals to traders, without a third party taking custody of the money in between.

Why Are Broker Deposits and Withdrawals So Difficult Today?

Brokers live and die by payment reliability, and traditional rails are the weak link. Card and bank flows bring chargebacks, declines, slow international settlement, and the ever-present risk of a payment account being frozen or offboarded. For brokers serving a global client base, a single PSP review can halt deposits across entire regions.

Crypto deposits remove the bank from the path, but they introduce their own friction if the gateway is poorly designed: lost deposits from re-used addresses, stranded wrong-token transfers, and clunky manual payouts. A broker-grade gateway has to solve all three.

How Does Crypto Fix Broker Payment Friction?

Crypto settlement gives brokers a payment rail that is fast, global, and final.

1. Irreversible settlement: A confirmed crypto deposit cannot be charged back, so deposit fraud and friendly-fraud reversals disappear.
2. Global reach: Traders fund accounts in the token they already hold, across 15 networks, without a card network approving the transaction.
3. Direct settlement: Funds land in your account wallet — the broker's own wallet — not a provider-held balance that can be frozen.
4. Fast confirmation: Deposits are credited as soon as the network confirms them, then swept to your account wallet automatically.

What Happens When a Trader Sends the Wrong Token?

This is the defining problem for brokers, because many traders are not crypto-native. They pick the wrong asset or the wrong network and assume the funds are gone. CryptoNow handles both cases:

• Recognised token on a supported network: It is auto-detected and credited to the client, with no manual work.
• Unrecognised token: It is recoverable via the exportable per-client private key — you export that wallet's key after passing two-factor authentication and recover the asset.

For a broker, that means a mistyped deposit becomes a support note rather than a lost client and a refund dispute; the mechanics are covered in full in wrong-token recovery. The same principle protects repeat depositors: CryptoNow assigns a permanent static client wallet per network, so a trader who re-funds the same address is always credited, unlike single-use checkout addresses where a re-send is not tracked.

Can I Run Payouts From My Existing CRM?

Yes. CryptoNow's payments run through a REST API and Node.js SDK, so withdrawals can be triggered from the broker's own CRM or back office. Two features make this broker-ready:

• Idempotency-Key on withdrawals: The withdrawal endpoint accepts an Idempotency-Key header, so if a connection drops and a payout request is retried, only one transaction executes — no accidental double payouts.
• clickId attribution: A clickId you attach to a charge is stored on the transaction (and returned as outsideOrderId), so you can reconcile deposits and payouts against your CRM records.

For paying many traders, IBs, or affiliates at once, mass crypto payouts via multisend send funds to many addresses in a batch, at $0.10 per address.

How Do Swaps Work for a Broker's Treasury?

Brokers rarely want to hold every token a trader deposits. CryptoNow's automatic crypto swaps let you exchange one asset for another through the integrated SwapSpace engine (with Allbridge Core for stablecoins), on mainnet. The honest cost of a swap is the network miner fee + the 0.5% system fee + the swap provider's rate spread — not a flat 0.5%. Auto-swap rules can convert incoming deposits to a preferred asset automatically once they land, with autosign handling the signing hands-free.

What Does It Cost?

There are no setup, monthly, or minimum-volume fees. Full detail is on the forex broker gateway page.

Why Does Non-Custodial Matter for a Broker?

For a broker, non-custodial settlement is risk management. Because CryptoNow never holds your funds:

• No frozen balances: There is no provider-held pool to lock during a review.
• No rolling reserves: Your working capital is not tied up against disputes.
• No account you can lose: Payments route to wallets you control by design.
• Audited and key-controlled: The technology is independently audited by Datami, with offline private keys, multi-level 2FA (email, authenticator app, phone), and exportable keys and seed phrases per wallet.

This reliability matters most for offshore CFD brokers, whose PSP or bank accounts are the most prone to sudden review or closure.

How CryptoNow Fits a Broker's Stack

A typical broker setup uses static client wallets for deposits, the API for CRM-triggered withdrawals with idempotency, multisend for batch payouts to traders and IBs, and auto-swap to keep treasury in a preferred asset. Deposits are credited on confirmation, swept to the account wallet, and every transaction carries a hash and optional clickId for reconciliation. Autosign — enabled by default — keeps checkouts, sweeps, swaps, and payouts processing without manual signing.

How Do I Pay IBs and Affiliate Commissions?

Brokers usually owe commissions to a network of introducing brokers (IBs) and affiliates. Rather than sending hundreds of individual transfers, multisend pays them all in one batch at $0.10 per address, plus the network miner fee. A run can be uploaded as a CSV of addresses and amounts, and for any token the system batches one transaction per 200 addresses — so a 1,000-recipient run settles as five transactions. The same Idempotency-Key protection applies, so a retried batch never pays twice.

What Does the Deposit Flow Look Like?

1. Assign a wallet: Give each trader a permanent static client wallet per network.
2. The trader funds it: They deposit any supported token; recognised wrong-token sends are auto-credited.
3. The network confirms: The payment moves New → Pending → Done as the blockchain confirms it.
4. Settlement: Funds sweep to your account wallet via autosign, ready to withdraw, hold, or swap.

Can I Off-Ramp Crypto to Fiat?

Yes. CryptoNow supports off-ramping crypto to fiat via Transak. For on-chain treasury management between assets, auto-swap converts incoming deposits to a preferred token automatically once they arrive.

How Fast Are Deposits Credited?

Crypto deposits are credited as soon as the network confirms them. A payment progresses from New (created) to Pending (detected on-chain) to Done (confirmed), and unique charge addresses are monitored for up to 60 minutes before a charge expires. For a broker this means trader balances update on confirmation rather than on a processor's settlement cycle — there is no multi-day hold before deposited funds are usable, and no card-network settlement delay between deposit and availability.
