The Modern Playbook for Fintechs, Trading Firms & Exchanges Ready to Scale
Fintechs, trading firms, and exchanges are at the forefront of a world that is quickly transforming the way that money flows across borders and asset classes. To navigate this shift, choosing the right infrastructure provider becomes essential, not only for security, compliance, and scalability, but also for end-to-end product capabilities that support any digital asset use case.
Fireblocks powers this evolution with infrastructure trusted by 2,400+ businesses, from financial institutions and fintechs to PSPs, neobanks, remittance companies, and more. From secure custody and settlement to treasury management and non-custodial embedded wallets, Fireblocks gives your platform the foundation to move fast, stay compliant, and scale with confidence.
Blockchain rails bring many benefits to businesses, including the ability to launch innovative products quickly, settle transactions in real time, reduce operational costs, and reach customers across borders without friction. Our platform enables financial innovators to hold, move, manage, and issue digital assets across 150+ blockchains.
Fireblocks’ all-in-one platform ensures that businesses have everything they need to build their entire end-to-end solution. That expansion can include creating custodial wallets with our Wallets-as-a-Service solution, integrating embedded wallets powered by Dynamic so users can custody their own private keys, enabling instant trading and settlement, automating treasury and rebalancing workflows, and beyond.
Where Fireblocks Excels in Digital Asset Infrastructure for Fintechs, Trading Firms & Exchanges
Digital Asset Infrastructure for Fintechs
Offer Crypto Without Complexity and Drive Growth
Fintechs are expanding beyond traditional financial services to meet user demand for digital assets. Embedding crypto capabilities into existing platforms can attract new users, deepen engagement, and unlock new revenue streams. All without building infrastructure from scratch or replatforming as your business expands.
The challenge for most fintechs isn’t the vision, it’s the execution. Building and maintaining digital asset infrastructure in-house is costly, complex, and slow. The right infrastructure partner gives fintechs the ability to launch quickly, scale confidently, and meet the security and digital asset compliance standards their users and regulators expect.
Fireblocks for Fintechs
- Fireblocks gives fintechs the building blocks to launch and scale digital asset products quickly, with custodial wallet infrastructure, compliance tooling, and treasury automation all available through a single platform
- Embedded wallets powered by Dynamic let your users custody their own assets without the need to manage seed phrases, gas fees, or crypto complexity
- Tokenization APIs to issue stablecoins, loyalty tokens, or tokenized assets directly within your platform, opening up new product lines and revenue opportunities
- Automation rules eliminate manual treasury and payout operations, with a no-code workflow builder to configure custom triggers, conditions, and events for tasks like sweeping wallets, converting tokens, and distributing payouts
- Ensure compliance across jurisdictions with embedded AML/KYC, Travel Rule, and audit-ready reporting integrated directly at the transaction layer
Digital Asset Infrastructure for Trading Firms
Launch and Scale Trading Services with Confidence
Trading firms are under pressure to offer more. There are more assets, more trading options, and more control for users who expect a balance of speed and security. Expanding into digital assets opens the door to broader asset coverage, new user segments, and the ability to offer both custodial and self-custodial solutions that meet the needs of a wider range of traders.
The challenge is building all of this without slowing down. Developing and maintaining high-performance trading infrastructure in-house is resource-intensive and complex. The right infrastructure partner gives trading firms the ability to move quickly, support high transaction volumes, and deliver the security and compliance that users and regulators demand.
Fireblocks for Trading Firms
- Fireblocks equips trading firms with everything needed to expand asset coverage and handle high-volume operations, without compromising on security or speed
- Custodial wallet infrastructure with policy controls built for the security and governance demands of institutional trading environments
- Embedded wallets powered by Dynamic let your users custody their own assets through simple social logins, supporting cross-chain trading without user friction
- Multi-chain support across 150+ blockchains with the ability to add new tokens and chains quickly as markets evolve and user demand shifts
- Automation rules to streamline rebalancing, margin management, and treasury workflows, reducing manual overhead so your team can focus on growth
Digital Asset Infrastructure for Exchanges
Compete at Scale While Prioritizing Security
Exchanges operate in one of the most demanding environments in financial services. They serve millions of users, process high-frequency transactions, and face constant pressure to offer deeper liquidity and support for more assets, all while maintaining the highest standards of security and user experience.
The stakes are too high to rely on infrastructure that wasn’t built for this. Exchanges need a partner that can handle the complexity of live trading environments, meet institutional compliance requirements, and give users the custody options they increasingly expect, without creating operational bottlenecks or slowing down growth.
Fireblocks for Exchanges
- Fireblocks provides exchanges with the infrastructure to operate at scale, from deep liquidity access and high-throughput transaction processing to flexible custody options and institutional-grade security controls
- Exchange connectivity to 35+ exchanges and hundreds of liquidity providers through a single integration, enabling automated trading, rebalancing, and best execution
- Custodial wallet infrastructure and policy controls designed to meet the security and governance standards of institutional exchange operations
- Dynamic embedded wallets let your users take true ownership of their assets without the complexity typically associated with self-custody or crypto
- High-throughput APIs with low-latency execution built to perform under the pressure of a live exchange environment
