The abento offering

Everything you need to run crypto payments

A complete crypto payment gateway for your merchants: invoicing, checkout, swaps, payouts, APIs and dashboards in one platform that runs under your brand.

Isolation

abento runs under your brand, with your data isolated by design.

The platform carries your name on every payment page and dashboard, and each tenant's data is separated by the architecture itself.

Invoicing

Multi-currency invoicing

Denominate invoices in fiat or crypto, even when that currency is not available for direct payment.

Payments

Multi-currency payments, send and receive

One invoice can be paid with several transactions in different assets. Overpayments and underpayments are accounted for precisely.

Checkout

Ready-to-use instant crypto payment widget

Accept crypto payments in minutes. Embed the widget into your checkout with a few lines of code.

Transfers

Instant account-to-account transfers

Move funds between accounts inside the platform instantly, with zero fees.

Swaps

Instant asset swapping

Incoming funds are automatically exchanged into the merchant's settlement asset through a liquidity provider.

Payouts

Crypto and stablecoin mass payments

One batch in, hundreds of confirmed crypto payouts out, with per-transfer status and a single reconciliation report.

Developers

Unified API

Accept, manage and send crypto payments through one API.

POST /v1/invoices { "amount": "250.00", "currency": "EUR" }
Events

Webhooks and notifications

Signed merchant webhooks and e-mail notifications with guaranteed redelivery.

Dashboards

Complete merchant dashboard management

Separate interfaces for the operator, partner, referral partner and merchant, with role-based access.

Growth

Built-in referral program

Code attribution and automatic reward calculation on every payment.

Reliability and security

Reliable by design

At any moment it is known who owes whom, in which asset, where the funds are, and which events produced every figure.

Double-entry ledger

An immutable multi-asset financial ledger. Corrections are made only by compensating entries.

Fail-closed behavior

No confirmed rate means no address is issued. Unknown outcomes are verified with the provider, and blind retries are excluded.

Immutable snapshots of terms

Rates, limits and tariffs are frozen at the moment of the operation. Historical payments are never recalculated.

Three event ingestion paths

Webhook, startup reconciliation and periodic provider reconciliation, so not a single payment is lost.

Idempotent processing

Repeated events, reconciliations and rescans never create duplicate financial operations.

Exact arithmetic

Calculations use exact decimal arithmetic with no floating point. The rounding rule is stored with the result.

Reliability is an architectural principle, not a promise.

Economics

Transparent economics on every payment

Purchase amountThe cost of the goods or service
Payer feeShown to the payer up front

The payer fee is distributed by contract

No hidden costs

Network and provider technical expenses never increase the payer's fee.

Terms are locked
