Blockchain wallets are emerging as a game-changing technology, particularly in the payments space. At Bastion, we're at the forefront of this revolution with our Regulated Wallet API, designed to empower businesses to harness the full potential of blockchain technology for retail and business customers while maintaining strict regulatory compliance.

Digital wallets have transcended their initial purpose, evolving into sophisticated financial tools that manage everything from cashback and discounts to loyalty rewards. With digital wallets projected to handle $12 trillion in spending by 2026 and 80% of Gen Z already embracing this technology, the potential for innovation is immense.

Our Regulated Wallet API as a Business Driver

Our Regulated Wallet API is designed to amplify the benefits of digital wallets, offering a seamless, whitelabel solution that can be embedded directly into existing applications. This enterprise-grade experience brings significant advantages across three core business drivers:

Dramatic Decrease in Payment Fees

Bastion's blockchain-based solution significantly cuts down on transaction costs:

• Reduced Transaction Costs: Our API facilitates efficient fund management, allowing businesses to minimize network fees. For instance, instead of incurring fees on multiple small transactions, a single larger transaction can be processed, substantially reducing overall costs.
• Bypass Interchange: By leveraging blockchain technology, Bastion's solution enables businesses to bypass traditional interchange fees. This can lead to near-zero network fees, especially when combined with alternative funding methods like ACH or direct deposits.

Increased App Engagement

Bastion's Regulated Wallet API enhances user interaction with your app:

• Seamless Integration: Our API integrates smoothly with existing systems, allowing businesses to offer cutting-edge blockchain wallet functionality under their own brand.
• Enhanced User Experience: With features like instant transactions and innovative reward systems, users are encouraged to interact more frequently with your app.

Boost in Revenue

Implementing Bastion's wallet solution can drive revenue growth:

• Higher Transaction Values: As seen in various sectors, digital wallet users tend to spend more. Our solution facilitates this trend, potentially increasing transaction values across different industries.
• New Revenue Streams: With Bastion's API, businesses can explore new avenues like crypto-based rewards or yield generation on unspent funds, creating additional revenue sources.

Bonus: Guaranteed Revenue and Yield Opportunities

Bastion's solution opens up new possibilities for revenue generation:

• Pre-funding Capabilities: Businesses can offer closed-loop custodial wallets, locking in future revenue.
• Yield Generation: Unspent funds in wallets can potentially earn yield, creating a new revenue stream without additional cost to the consumer.
