Today we explore how we helped a licensed Forex broker in Mauritius and Seychelles to overcome a complex challenge: building efficient and compliant cross-border payment channels in an industry often overlooked by traditional banks. By working hand-in-hand with regulated UK banking institutions and implementing a tailored technical infrastructure, we assisted them in creating a payment system that not only solved immediate needs but also laid a foundation for future success. 

 

Starting Point 

Operating as a licensed Forex broker in Mauritius and Seychelles comes with its fair share of challenges and opportunities. These offshore markets, known for their retail trading activity, often struggle to establish seamless, reliable and compliant payment channels. Our client was no exception. 

The broker needed a solution to: 

  • Accept direct USD deposits from retail traders. 
  • Process withdrawals to the original funding sources. 
  • Maintain compliance across multiple regulatory jurisdictions. 

These requirements highlighted a universal challenge in the Forex industry: the reluctance of traditional banks to servicing offshore-licensed brokers, especially for USD transactions. With the right partnerships and infrastructure, however, we knew we could turn this around. 

 

When we Came In 

To address these challenges, we worked closely with regulated UK banking partners to build a compliant and efficient payment ecosystem. Every detail was aligned with the broker’s unique business and regulatory needs. 

 

Core Banking Setup 

  • Corporate accounts were established with a Tier-1 UK bank, enhancing credibility and operational ease. 
  • A segregated account structure ensured transparency and legal entity alignment. 
  • Direct SWIFT network access enabled seamless global reach for transactions.  

 

Payment Processing 

  • Multi-currency support was introduced, covering more than 40 currencies to support diverse client needs. 
  • A centralized IBAN system simplified cross-border transactions.   
  • Real-time monitoring ensured robust compliance checks and minimized fraud risks.
