# Advanced Payment Solutions

> We handle the payments. You handle the business.

Advanced Payment Solutions is a payment service provider for international businesses. It offers online, on-chain, and corporate payment services combining card processing with blockchain-based settlement.

Advanced Payment Solutions, known as APS, is a payment service provider that helps international businesses accept and settle payments across traditional and blockchain-based rails. It combines card processing, regional payment methods, and digital currency payment options with settlement services covering a wide range of fiat currencies and digital assets. The company is licensed and serves online merchants, licensed brokerages, and other regulated platforms operating across multiple countries.

The platform addresses the difficulty businesses face when connecting conventional finance with blockchain-based settlement by offering a single integration point across payment rails. Its on-chain payment infrastructure is built around the Stellar network and supports protocols that link fiat payment methods with decentralized finance activity, while also settling transactions across several other blockchain networks. This allows merchants to accept both card-based and crypto-based payments without maintaining separate integrations for each method.

APS groups its offering into online payments, on-chain payments, and corporate payments, the latter built around a multi-currency digital wallet for cross-border settlement and liquidity management. Its online payment tools support major card networks alongside regional and digital-asset payment methods, while on-chain payments serve digital wallet products, freelance platforms, gaming, and e-commerce. The company is used by international businesses, licensed brokers, and other online platforms seeking combined fiat and digital-asset payment infrastructure.
