Embed payments, seamlessly
With Cross River’s API driven technology, providing card acceptance to your customers has never been easier. As a platform, payment facilitator, or payment service provider, embed payments and any payment rails to enable payouts for merchants in your ecosystem. Partners receive support across the merchant acquiring process including individual merchant subledgers that are fully routable, with processor integration, fund transfers and settlement, on top of acquiring BIN sponsorship. By offering ACH, push-to-card, wires, RTP, and intra-banking payment rails, you can provide your merchants with the choice of when and how they receive funds.
