A new article from our CTO Pavlo Sidelov explores a topic that is becoming increasingly relevant for fintech teams: infrastructure distribution models.
The article compares four common approaches:
• Pure SaaS
• Managed Cloud
• Open Source
• Source Code License
Over the past few years, the market has already seen several high-profile failures where fintech companies lost access to operations due to dependency on infrastructure vendors.
The key point:
the distribution model you choose defines your level of control, auditability, and business continuity.
The conclusion is practical.
Among all models, source code license is the only one that removes vendor dependency while still providing production-ready infrastructure and support.
SDK.finance has been working under this model since 2013, providing clients with full access to the production system and the ability to operate it independently.

SDK.finance was featured by Yahoo Finance in an article exploring why payment and banking infrastructure has become a central challenge for companies entering financial services.

The article notes a clear shift in the market. Instead of building complex systems from scratch, companies increasingly rely on infrastructure foundations to launch neobanks, crypto platforms, and electronic wallets.

SDK.finance is highlighted as an example of this model: a modular core banking and payment infrastructure designed to lower the technological barrier while supporting scalable, production-ready financial products.

Crypto Providers Used to Build Wallets, Banking, and On-Ramp Solutions

Building a crypto wallet, crypto banking product, or fiat on-ramp is rarely about a single vendor. In practice, these products are assembled from multiple specialised providers: custody, liquidity, payments, card issuing, compliance, and core transaction accounting.
In this article, we break down:
- What types of crypto infrastructure providers are involved in real-world products.
- How custody, payments, liquidity, and on-ramp services differ in responsibility.
- Which providers are typically used by fintechs, exchanges, and regulated institutions.
- How these components are combined into a scalable architecture.
The goal is to help product and tech teams understand the roles behind the stack before making vendor or build-vs-buy decisions.

Renewing our PCI DSS Level 1 certification confirms that this approach remains a core part of SDK.finance’s engineering culture as the Platform continues to grow.
