Why PositionPay

Grow your exchange, not your balance sheet

PositionPay turns financing into a growth lever — more volume per trader, more new signups, and fewer dormant accounts.

Higher trade volume

Financed traders are modeled to place 3.2x larger positions and trade more contracts per session — our full-embed model projects up to +24% contract volume. No pilots are live yet; these are management projections.

Growth lever
New user acquisition

Embedded finance at checkout lowers the barrier to a first trade and drives signups. Partners use it in campaigns to lower CAC and convert browsers into active traders.

Re-engage dormant traders

Win back users who stopped trading due to capital limits. Financing gives them a reason to return for the next Fed print, election, or marquee event — on your exchange.

    Partner FAQ

    Who holds lending risk?
    Your exchange doesn't. A licensed BaaS partner is lender of record; PositionPay owns hybrid underwriting, the loan book economics, servicing, and collections. You capture GMV and native exchange fees; we handle credit and repayment. Zero balance-sheet exposure on your side.
    How does repayment work when a contract settles?
    Your exchange sends a settlement webhook when the event contract resolves. PositionPay triggers fiat repayment via our licensed BaaS partners — ACH or bank-linked rails, aligned to contract outcome.
    How does this drive new user acquisition?
    Financing is built into every trade flow, so a new user never has to fund a full position upfront to get started. Flexible sizing — pay cash for part, finance the rest — makes the first contract feel approachable instead of a big wallet decision. That converts more signups into active traders and gives your growth team a concrete hook for campaigns around marquee events.
    What data do you need from us?
    Opaque user references and contract metadata only. KYC and affordability run on PositionPay infrastructure — not your servers.
