Why card rails bleed gaming operators dry
Gaming merchant codes get declined by default
Transactions coded 7995 are blocked by a large share of issuing banks. Players who want to deposit simply can't — and every failed deposit is revenue handed to a competitor.
Players charge back their losses
Friendly fraud is endemic in iGaming: a player loses, then disputes the deposit. You lose the money, pay the fee, and inch toward the chargeback thresholds that end merchant accounts.
Slow payouts destroy player trust
Card refund rails and bank withdrawals take 3–7 days. In an industry where payout speed is the #1 trust signal, slow withdrawals are churn.
Every acquirer relationship is fragile
Gaming operators juggle multiple MIDs across jurisdictions, each one revocable at the acquirer's discretion. Losing one mid-campaign means lost deposits and emergency rerouting.
How Flint keeps deposits flowing
No issuer, no decline
Crypto deposits don't pass through an issuing bank that can block gaming MCC codes. If the player has funds, the deposit goes through — every time, from every country you operate in.
Deposits are final, losses stay losses
On-chain payments cannot be disputed. The friendly-fraud chargeback loop that eats iGaming margins simply doesn't exist on crypto rails.
Instant deposits, fast withdrawals
Player deposits confirm in minutes and webhooks credit their balance automatically. Paying out in crypto is just as fast — a genuine competitive edge in player retention.
One integration, every market
No per-jurisdiction MID juggling for the crypto side of your cashier. One API, one checkout, available wherever you're licensed to operate.
Built for cashier integration
Payment requests via API, hosted checkout for the player, signed webhooks back to your wallet system. Most operators integrate Flint as a cashier method in days.

Gambling payment questions, answered
Do I need a gambling license to use Flint?
Flint doesn't replace licensing — you need to be legally authorized to offer gaming in the markets you serve, and that responsibility stays with you. What Flint removes is the payment-side gatekeeping: you won't lose deposits to issuer declines or acquirer risk policies on top of your regulatory work.
Are crypto deposits really chargeback-proof?
Yes. Crypto transactions are push payments with on-chain finality — there is no issuing bank and no dispute mechanism that can reverse them. If you choose to refund a player, that's your decision, not something a bank imposes on you months later.
How fast can players deposit and start playing?
Deposits are typically detected within seconds and confirmed within minutes, depending on the coin. Flint sends a webhook on detection and confirmation, so your cashier can credit a pending balance instantly and clear it on confirmation.
Can I pay out player withdrawals in crypto?
You can send withdrawals from your own crypto balance, and fast crypto withdrawals are one of the strongest retention tools in iGaming. Flint's dashboard gives you the deposit records to reconcile against.
Which coins should I offer players?
Bitcoin and Ethereum for reach, plus stablecoins like USDT and USDC for players who don't want balance volatility. Offering stablecoins also simplifies your treasury since deposits arrive dollar-denominated.
What happens to my deposit flow if my card MID gets terminated?
Nothing — that's the point. Flint runs independently of your acquiring relationships. Operators typically see crypto grow to a meaningful share of cashier volume precisely because it's the rail that never goes down.
