Instant stablecoin settlement reduced funding friction, expanded global participation, and strengthened compliance across 150+ countries.

OPPORTUNITY

Funding Friction and Compliance Complexity

Republic’s global growth exposed structural payment challenges. Traditional cross-border fiat rails were slow and expensive, creating investor friction through currency conversion fees and banking delays. Stablecoins were increasingly the preferred funding method for global users, but fragmentation across multiple blockchains complicated deposits. 

Operationally, Republic previously managed crypto through omnibus accounts, limiting wallet-to-user visibility and increasing reconciliation complexity.

KYC/AML verification, wallet matching, ledger management, and fiat conversion introduced significant regulatory and back-office burden . To scale responsibly, Republic required infrastructure that could unify stablecoin acceptance, automate compliance, and enable instant global funding without operational fragmentation.

SOLUTION

Unified Stablecoin Funding Infrastructure

Republic integrated zerohash’s stablecoin payment infrastructure to power 24/7/365 global investment funding. Through a single integration, Republic can accept stablecoin deposits across multiple chains while settling directly into fiat. 

zerohash manages the full transaction lifecycle: wallet screening, KYC-linked address verification, sanctions monitoring, stablecoin-to-fiat conversion, and reconciliation. The infrastructure abstracts blockchain fragmentation so investors can fund using their preferred stablecoin on supported networks without manual conversion. 

Republic retains control of the user experience, while zerohash handles regulatory licensing, compliance tooling, transaction scalability, and asset support. Instant on-chain settlement reduces funding time from hours to seconds , improving capital velocity for investment opportunities.

OUTCOME

Global Access With Instant Settlement

Republic unlocked participation from investors across 60+ countries while accelerating funding cycles . Settlement time dropped from hours to seconds, enabling real-time capital deployment. Each transaction is now tied to a KYC-verified user, strengthening compliance oversight.

The infrastructure supported an individual $200,000 deposit, removing prior funding limits . By eliminating operational burden and unifying multi-chain stablecoin acceptance, Republic expanded global investment access without increasing regulatory exposure.

TESTIMONIAL

“With zerohash we can accept stablecoins as a form of payment from anywhere around the world and get settled in fiat.”
