Cosmos IBC Payment Processor
Smart Contract Development
Secure, gas-optimized smart contracts built for production by certified Solidity engineers.
- Full Lifecycle Development: From initial design and
Solidity 0.8+coding to deployment and post-launch maintenance. - Security-First Approach: Adherence to
OpenZeppelinstandards, integration of formal verification tools, and preparation for third-party audits. - Protocol-Specific Expertise: Custom logic for
ERC-20,ERC-721,ERC-1155, DeFi primitives, DAOs, and cross-chain bridges.
Deliver a production-ready, auditable contract suite in as little as 2-4 weeks, reducing your technical risk and accelerating your go-to-market timeline.
Core Features of Our IBC Payment Processor
Our IBC payment processor is engineered for reliability and scale, providing the foundational rails for cross-chain financial applications. We handle the complex infrastructure so you can focus on your product.
Multi-Chain Settlement Engine
Real-time settlement across 50+ Cosmos SDK and IBC-enabled chains. Supports native tokens and IBC fungible tokens (ICS-20) with atomic composability.
Client Value: Launch a single payment product that works across the entire Interchain ecosystem.
Enterprise-Grade Security & Monitoring
Built with formal verification for IBC packet logic and 24/7 automated monitoring for packet timeouts and misbehavior. All infrastructure is deployed in a secure, private VPC.
Client Value: Mitigate cross-chain risks with audited code and proactive threat detection.
Developer-First APIs & SDKs
Production-ready REST APIs and TypeScript/Go SDKs for initiating payments, querying status, and managing liquidity. Includes webhook support for settlement confirmations.
Client Value: Integrate cross-chain payments into your stack in days, not months.
Automated Liquidity Management
Intelligent routing and rebalancing across IBC channels to optimize for fees and speed. Configurable policies for managing channel balances and gas reserves.
Client Value: Ensure payment availability and minimize operational overhead on liquidity.
Business Outcomes for Your Platform
Our Cosmos IBC payment processor is engineered to deliver measurable improvements to your core business metrics, from revenue to user experience.
Instant Cross-Chain Settlement
Enable real-time, atomic settlement of payments across 50+ IBC-connected chains. Eliminate multi-day settlement delays and unlock capital efficiency for your treasury and users.
Enterprise-Grade Security & Compliance
Deploy with confidence using battle-tested, audited smart contracts and MPC-based key management. Our architecture is designed to meet institutional security standards and regulatory requirements.
Reduced Operational Complexity
Replace the overhead of managing multiple chain-specific integrations, wallets, and liquidity pools with a single, unified IBC-native API. Focus your engineering resources on product innovation.
New Revenue Streams & Markets
Capture value from the entire Cosmos ecosystem and beyond. Support native tokens from any IBC chain, enabling new user acquisition and facilitating cross-chain commerce and DeFi interactions.

Our Development & Delivery Process
We deliver your Cosmos IBC payment processor with a structured, milestone-driven approach that ensures clarity, security, and rapid time-to-market.
Architecture & Specification
We define the IBC packet structure, token flow, and smart contract interfaces. This includes security models for multi-signature wallets and finality guarantees.
Smart Contract Development
Build core escrow, settlement, and fee logic in CosmWasm or native Cosmos SDK modules. All code follows Interchain Standards (ICS) and is gas-optimized.
IBC Integration & Testing
Implement IBC relayer logic, channel handshakes, and packet timeouts. We conduct unit, integration, and cross-chain simulation tests.
Security Audit & Deployment
Third-party audit by firms like Oak Security or Informal Systems. We then deploy to your testnet and mainnet with automated CI/CD pipelines.
Relayer Infrastructure
Provision and configure high-availability IBC relayers between your chain and major hubs (Cosmos Hub, Osmosis). We monitor packet success and queue health.
Documentation & Handover
Deliver comprehensive technical docs, admin guides, and API references. We provide post-launch support and developer training for your team.
Smart Contract Development
Secure, production-ready smart contracts built by Web3-native engineers.
We architect and deploy custom smart contracts that form the secure, immutable backbone of your application. Our process ensures zero critical vulnerabilities through formal verification and multi-audit cycles.
From token standards to complex DeFi logic, we deliver contracts that are gas-optimized, upgradeable, and battle-tested for mainnet.
- Full-Stack Development:
ERC-20,ERC-721,ERC-1155, custom governance, staking, and bridging protocols. - Security First: Built with OpenZeppelin standards, tested with Foundry/Slither, audited by top firms.
- Deployment & Management: Full lifecycle support from testnet (
Sepolia,Holesky) to mainnet, including verification and monitoring.
Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on how we build, deploy, and secure your cross-chain payment infrastructure.
A standard Cosmos IBC payment processor deployment takes 3-5 weeks from kickoff to mainnet launch. This includes 1 week for architecture design, 2-3 weeks for core development and testing, and 1 week for final audits and deployment. Complex features like multi-asset support or custom governance can extend this timeline, which we scope and quote for upfront.
