Cross-Chain Payment Router Development

We build intelligent routing engines that dynamically select the optimal bridge path for your payments based on real-time cost, speed, security, and liquidity across multiple networks.

overview
FOUNDATION

Custom Blockchain Development

Build secure, scalable blockchain networks tailored to your specific business logic and performance requirements.

We architect and deploy custom blockchains, sidechains, and app-chains using Substrate, Cosmos SDK, and Avalanche. Our development process delivers a production-ready network in 8-12 weeks, with core features like custom consensus, tokenomics, and governance.

We don't just build a chain; we build your competitive infrastructure.

  • Core Protocol: Design and implement custom transaction logic, fee models, and validator incentives.
  • Interoperability: Native bridges and IBC integration for cross-chain asset and data flow.
  • Node Infrastructure: Full validator set deployment with 99.9% uptime SLA and monitoring dashboards.
  • Security First: Every chain undergoes formal verification and audit by our in-house Rust/Go experts before mainnet launch.

PROVEN METHODOLOGY

Our Development & Integration Process

A structured, four-phase approach to deliver a secure, scalable, and production-ready cross-chain payment router. We focus on rapid integration and measurable outcomes.

01

Architecture & Strategy

We design a custom router architecture tailored to your target chains (e.g., Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum) and liquidity needs. This includes selecting optimal bridging protocols (CCIP, Axelar, Wormhole) and defining security models.

5+ Chains

Smart Contract Development

Our engineers build and audit the core router logic in Solidity/Vyper. We implement secure fund custody, slippage controls, and fail-safe mechanisms using OpenZeppelin libraries and industry-standard patterns.

Relayer & Oracle Integration

We deploy and configure high-availability relayers for message passing and integrate with decentralized oracles (Chainlink) for secure, real-time price feeds and settlement verification across networks.

Strategic Infrastructure Decision

Build a Custom Router vs. Using a Single Bridge SDK

Choosing the right cross-chain infrastructure impacts your product's capabilities, security, and long-term costs. This comparison helps technical leaders evaluate the trade-offs between a custom-built solution and a limited SDK.

Frequently Asked Questions

Get clear answers on development timelines, security, costs, and support for your cross-chain payment solution.

We deliver a production-ready cross-chain payment router in 4-8 weeks, depending on the number of target chains and required features. A basic router connecting 2-3 EVM chains with standard bridging logic takes ~4 weeks. Complex deployments with 5+ chains, custom liquidity management, or non-EVM support extend to 6-8 weeks. We provide a detailed sprint-by-sprint roadmap during the initial discovery phase.
