BPN and Ceffu Partner to Strengthen Custody and Settlement Security for Institutional Stablecoin Payments

Dubai, October 2025 — BetterPaymentNetwork (BPN) today announced a partnership with Ceffu, a leading institutional crypto custody, to enhance the security, liquidity, and capital efficiency of stablecoin-based cross-border settlements.

The collaboration integrates Ceffu’s institutional-grade custody architecture into BPN’s multi-stablecoin payment network, enabling enterprises and payment institutions to store, transfer, and optimize their digital asset positions safely on BNB Chain.

Redefining Cross-Border Payment

Built natively on BNB Chain, BPN provides a unified layer for minting, swapping, and burning fiat-backed stablecoins, creating an instant, low-cost, and compliant infrastructure for cross-border payments. By combining the reliability of centralized finance (CeFi) with the programmability of decentralized finance (DeFi), BPN eliminates high dependency on pre-funding and thus inefficiencies of funding that have long constrained traditional financial networks.

In one business case, a B2B trader used BPN to streamline its trade flow between Brazil and Hong Kong. A unique QR code was generated and displayed at its warehouse counters in Brazil. When local buyers paid in BRL, BPN instantly minted BRL-backed stablecoins (BBRL), swapped them to USDC, and settled the equivalent USD in Hong Kong—all within 3–4 hours, compared to 1–2 days via traditional channels. The total transaction cost was around 30 bps—a fraction of conventional FX and settlement fees (~2%).

Institutional Custody Meets Programmable Payments

As cross-border settlements move on-chain, trust, liquidity, and compliance are becoming the new pillars of financial infrastructure.

Through this partnership, BPN and Ceffu will jointly deliver:

Secure fund custody powered by Ceffu’s MPC technology and regulatory-compliant cold storage
Deep liquidity assurance by holding major stablecoin reserves directly on BNB Chain, ensuring smoother large-ticket settlements
Yield enhancement for BPN’s merchants, allowing certain yield-bearing assets to earn rewards while remaining under Ceffu’s custody accounts

“Ceffu represents the institutional foundation of programmable finance,” said Rica Fu, Founder of BPN. “With this partnership, stablecoin settlements not only become faster and cheaper — they also become yield-bearing and liquidity-rich. It’s the evolution from payments to full capital efficiency.”

Liquidity Anchored on BNB Chain

As more stablecoin positions from BPN’s payment corridors (including BBRL, TRYB, and cNGN) are securely stored on BNB Chain, on-chain liquidity depth increases — reinforcing the stability of large-value transactions and FX rebalancing.

This structure allows BPN to deliver consistent on-chain FX execution while ensuring funds are protected within institutional-grade custody. “By combining Ceffu’s custody infrastructure with BPN’s programmable payment network, we’re setting a new benchmark for secure, liquid, and compliant stablecoin settlements across emerging markets.” said Ian Loh, CEO at Ceffu.

Secure, Efficient, and Rewarding Settlement

BPN’s programmable settlement design enables merchants to reduce cross-border settlement cycles from days to hours.

With Ceffu integration, businesses can now park their funds safely and earn institutional yield on their stablecoin holdings — turning working capital into productive capital, without compromising on compliance or liquidity.
