Overview

Developed a trust-linked credit card platform that allows users to access secured assets within trust structures through a Mastercard-powered payment solution, with support for digital finance features such as stablecoin repayment and automated account management.

The challenges

  • Real-time transaction processing: Handled Mastercard ISO 8583 financial messages with very low latency and high reliability for authorization, clearing, and reversal flows.

  • Dynamic credit limit calculation: Continuously recalculated credit limits based on the real-time market value of assets secured within trust accounts.

  • Digital finance integration: Enabled secure and seamless card repayment using stablecoins such as USDT, USDC, and DAI at a 1:1 settlement ratio.

  • Security and compliance: Enforced strict KYC/AML, access control, and auditability requirements to protect sensitive financial and trust-related data.
