Start with the decision
The right first question is rarely “Which coin?”
It is what needs to move, who controls it, what the recipient receives, and how finance proves what happened.

One flow, several responsibilities
The stack is not one product.
A credible evaluation follows the money from the customer or bank through settlement, control, records, and risk.
Value settles
Payment orchestration, conversion, payout corridor, fees, and timing.
Authority is enforced
Custody, wallets, roles, limits, approvals, counterparties, and recovery.
Finance can explain it
Reconciliation, valuation, subledger, ERP, tax evidence, and close.
Risk is investigated
Identity, screening, monitoring, escalation, documentation, and reporting.

Before procurement
Three decisions that prevent expensive confusion.
Define what arrives.
The customer may send a stablecoin while your business receives dollars. Settlement outcome changes custody, accounting, and provider fit.
Plan the flow →Name who can move it.
Keys, roles, limits, approvals, recovery, and destination verification matter more than a polished wallet screen.
Design control →Make the record complete.
Every payment needs a business purpose, beneficiary, valuation, transaction record, approval, and ledger treatment.
Build the record →Decision guides
