· Investor deck · ConfidentialCrypto payment infrastructure for trading businesses
A self-hosted crypto payment gateway for forex brokers and high-risk merchants.
· Investor deck · ConfidentialTrading businesses cannot get paid.
700+ forex brokers, thousands of prop firms, and an entire high-risk merchant economy all share one failure: every payment option open to them is broken.
· Investor deck · ConfidentialOne gateway. Every crypto rail.
XiWire gives a broker crypto deposits and withdrawals through a single API, wallets, sweeps, fees and compliance handled, with no blockchain expertise required.
· Investor deck · ConfidentialBuilt, not promised.
The platform is built and the monetization layer is coded. Capital accelerates go-to-market, not core engineering.
· Investor deck · ConfidentialA fee pool worth hundreds of millions.
XiWire’s revenue is a take rate on payment volume, so the market is best sized as the fee pool it can capture, and that pool grows with every vertical beyond forex.
· Investor deck · ConfidentialA take rate on every transaction.
XiWire earns like a payment processor, a percentage of every deposit and every withdrawal. The broker pays; revenue recurs and scales with their volume.
Charging both sides of the flow roughly doubles revenue per client versus a deposit-only processor, and is still cheaper than the bank wires brokers pay on payouts today.
· Investor deck · ConfidentialTiered fees and a full discount toolkit.
| Transaction size | Deposit fee | Withdrawal fee |
|---|---|---|
| $0 – $10,000 | 1.00% | 1.00% |
| $10,000 – $50,000 | 0.75% | 0.75% |
| $50,000+ | 0.50% | 0.50% |
Volume tiers step down automatically. On top of that: per-client negotiated rates and time-boxed promotional discounts, all admin-controlled, no code changes. Sales can discount tactically without ever touching the floor of a 90%+ gross margin.
· Investor deck · Confidential$1.0M → $4.6M → $12.2M ARR in 36 months.
| Year | Clients | Volume / mo | Conservative | Base | Stretch |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Year 1 | ~12 | $12M | $0.7M | $1.0M | $1.5M |
| Year 2 | ~45 | $55M | $2.9M | $4.6M | $6.7M |
| Year 3 | ~110 | $145M | $7.6M | $12.2M | $19.3M |
Revenue ≈ blended take rate (~0.7%) × total payment volume. Illustrative projections with stated assumptions. The conservative line alone still supports the raise.
· Investor deck · ConfidentialHigh-margin, fast cash, strong leverage.
· Investor deck · ConfidentialDistribution is the asset.
The fee engine is vertical-agnostic. Growth is a distribution problem, and XiWire starts with a channel.
· Investor deck · ConfidentialPurpose-built for the gap.
