Extend your platform beyond digital assets

Your users already hold, trade and move digital assets on your platform. A card programme gives them another way to use those assets: everyday payments.

StraitsX provides the infrastructure connecting your digital asset ecosystem with established card payment rails, without requiring your business to build the issuing stack from the ground up.

Build the card programme with single infrastructure
