Announcing Furlpay Connect: B2B Stablecoin Settlement

Traditional merchant payment gateways are built on legacy 1970s rails. Between interchange fees, merchant discount rates (MDR) and chargeback liabilities, businesses routinely surrender 2.5% to 4.0% of their top-line revenue just to process digital card payments. Today, we're launching Furlpay Connect — a single-integration gateway that slashes settlement fees to a flat 0.5% and deposits local currency directly into your bank account.

How it works

Furlpay Connect sits between high-speed Layer 2 blockchains (Base, Solana, Arbitrum) and domestic bank routing networks (ACH, SEPA, RTP). When a customer checks out:

• They sign a transaction using their Furlpay Passkey.
• Stablecoins (USDC or EURC) are instantly transferred to Furlpay's liquidity pool.
• Our backend automatically triggers a local payout through the Bridge.xyz API, depositing domestic currency into the merchant's bank account in seconds.

Why it wins

• Near-zero fees: cut merchant discount fees by up to 80%.
• Zero volatility: merchants receive settlement in USD, EUR or GBP, shielded from asset volatility.
• Frictionless integration: drop Connect into your checkout with a single script tag or our headless TypeScript SDK.
