Payment infrastructure

Crypto payment infrastructure

Everything required to move digital money safely — chain monitoring, address derivation, confirmations, pricing, a double-entry ledger, hardware-backed signing, compliance screening, and settlement — delivered as a service instead of a multi-quarter build.

What "payment infrastructure" really includes

The visible part of accepting crypto is a checkout. The hard part is everything behind it.

Under a single API, Payzuno runs the machinery a payments team would otherwise build and operate:

  • Chain monitoring across multiple networks, with reorg handling and confirmation tracking.
  • Deterministic address derivation — a unique deposit address per invoice.
  • A double-entry ledger that reconciles every credit, fee, sweep and payout.
  • HSM/KMS signing — private keys never live on application servers, and every transfer is policy-checked before signing.
  • Fail-closed KYT screening and a hash-chained audit trail.
  • Settlement and sweeps that move funds to your wallet while accounting for network gas.

Why build on it instead of from scratch

Building this in-house means hiring blockchain, security, and compliance engineers to write and then operate node infrastructure, key management, ledgering, and monitoring — indefinitely. A single mistake in key handling or confirmation logic is a direct financial loss. Payzuno turns that program into configuration.

Minimized custody is a design principle here, not a slogan: funds settle to merchant-controlled wallets on a schedule you set, keys stay in dedicated hardware, and balances are never lent, staked, or reinvested.

Operable and observable

The ledger and audit trail mean money movement is always explainable, and confirmations are tracked to amount-scaled thresholds so small and large payments get proportionate certainty. Deposit detection can be driven by efficient chain polling or by push webhooks from a node provider, with polling as the backstop.

One API, many rails

Because assets and chains are configured per deployment, the same infrastructure serves ETH and ERC-20 stablecoins today and extends to additional tokens and chains without a re-integration. Explore the payment API and documentation.

Frequently asked questions

What does Payzuno’s payment infrastructure include?

Multi-chain monitoring with reorg handling, per-invoice address derivation, confirmation tracking, median-of-four pricing, a double-entry ledger, HSM/KMS signing with policy limits, fail-closed KYT screening, a hash-chained audit trail, and settlement to your wallet.

Why not build crypto payments in-house?

Doing it well means building and permanently operating node infrastructure, key management, ledgering, monitoring, and compliance — where a single error is a direct financial loss. Payzuno turns that into configuration.

Where are private keys kept?

In dedicated key hardware (HSM/KMS), never on application servers, and every outbound transfer is checked against policy limits before it can be signed.

How is money movement reconciled?

A double-entry ledger records every credit, fee, sweep and payout, and administrative actions are written to a hash-chained audit trail, so every movement is explainable and tamper-evident.

Can it support new tokens and chains?

Yes. Assets and chains are configured per deployment, so additional ERC-20 tokens and networks can be added without re-integrating.
