Payward Ramp enables companies to offer customers a simple and secure way to instantly buy and sell cryptocurrencies using familiar payment options, including debit and credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and local bank transfers. By joining Onramper’s ecosystem of more than 30 integrated onramp providers, Payward Ramp expands its reach while giving businesses direct access to Kraken’s robust trading environment.
The integration significantly reduces the engineering complexity traditionally associated with launching compliant fiat-to-crypto flows. Instead of building and maintaining separate infrastructure, businesses can now activate crypto buy-and-sell functionality with minimal technical effort. Payward Ramp manages compliance requirements, licensing obligations, KYC procedures, and fraud prevention protocols behind the scenes, allowing partners to concentrate on delivering seamless user experiences.

Through Kraken’s platform, Payward Ramp supports access to more than 600 digital assets across over 100 blockchains. It operates across key markets including the United States, the European Union, and the United Kingdom, backed by Kraken’s regulated infrastructure and multiple money transmitter and CASP licenses in major jurisdictions. This regulatory foundation offers businesses added confidence when expanding into new regions.
Thijs Maas, CEO of Onramper, emphasized the importance of continuously evaluating high-quality ramp providers. He noted that integrating Payward Ramp shortly after its launch ensures partners gain access to premium crypto buying experiences supported by one of the most trusted infrastructures in the industry.

Brett McLain, Head of Payward Ramp, highlighted that the solution was designed to leverage Kraken’s liquidity to provide global crypto access at scale. By connecting with Onramper’s aggregation network, Payward Ramp can now reach a broader ecosystem of wallets, fintech platforms, and digital services. The collaboration simplifies regional expansion for partners by removing the need to build and manage their own onramp infrastructure.
The addition of Payward Ramp further strengthens Onramper’s position as a leading aggregation provider. In October 2025, the company surpassed 30 integrated onramps, reinforcing its mission to simplify global crypto access. With a unified API connecting global and local payment methods, Onramper continues to lower barriers for businesses seeking to offer compliant and scalable crypto services worldwide.
