Key Features of the New Payment Stack
- •Amboss and Voltage have launched a payment stack designed for instant Bitcoin and stablecoin transactions with self-custodial yield.
- •Businesses can significantly reduce processing costs and generate revenue through routing-based payments.
- •The integration leverages Taproot Assets to enable secure, multi-currency, cross-border flows, fostering enterprise adoption of Bitcoin payments.
Amboss Technologies and Voltage have partnered to introduce an enterprise payment stack that combines Voltage’s Lightning Payments API with Amboss Rails. This new setup allows businesses to accept fast, low-cost payments while simultaneously earning yield on their idle Bitcoin and stablecoin balances, all without relinquishing custody of their assets. Essentially, it transforms payment processing from a cost center into a potential revenue-generating stream.
This integration addresses a common challenge faced by high-volume industries such as iGaming, prediction markets, and crypto exchanges, where payment fees can account for 2% to 5% of all transactions, and unused digital assets often remain inactive. By utilizing the Lightning Network, Voltage’s API facilitates rapid, global Bitcoin and stablecoin payments. Concurrently, Amboss Rails automates liquidity management, enabling businesses to route network payments and earn yield without compromising custody.

Yield and Efficiency for Enterprise Payments
Jesse Shrader, CEO of Amboss, explained, "Rails provides the yield engine to optimize capital, and Voltage’s Payments API simplifies Lightning adoption, creating a flywheel that improves both payments and treasury management." This integration empowers businesses to earn cashback from their payment activities and access routing-based yield directly from real transaction flows, eliminating the need for traditional lending, staking, or farming.
Voltage’s Taproot Assets further enhance the payment stack by enabling in-flight exchanges between Bitcoin and stablecoins. This capability is crucial for facilitating cross-border and multi-currency flows while adhering to SOC 2 Type II security and compliance standards. Graham Krizek, CEO of Voltage, commented, "Lightning-native yield turns idle capital into productive assets, reducing custody costs and supporting a more efficient, reliable network."
Scalable, Secure, and Enterprise-Ready
The Amboss-Voltage stack is built on Bitcoin’s Lightning Network and utilizes machine-learning-optimized routing alongside instant settlement capabilities. This robust architecture supports high-volume, compliant payments on a global scale. Initial adopters have reported reducing their effective processing costs by as much as 30% due to yield offsets. This partnership marks a significant step toward mainstream enterprise adoption of Bitcoin-based payments by offering a combination of speed, security, and built-in revenue potential within a single system.
In a related industry development, payment processor Square has launched a Bitcoin payment feature that allows sellers to accept Bitcoin at checkout through point-of-sale systems. This initiative represents a key advancement in integrating Bitcoin into everyday commercial transactions.
