Payments Rails

Off-ramp

Converting tokenised balance back to fiat payout on local and international rails

What an off-ramp does

An off-ramp reverses the on-ramp: digital balance exits the network as fiat (or external crypto) paid to the user's bank, mobile-money wallet, or cash agent. Payout executes only after the withdrawal is authorised and balance is available—whether the source asset is USDC, EURC, XOFC, or another supported stablecoin.

User outcome

The user requests withdrawal; PayLink Off-Ramp processes the conversion and triggers payout on the selected rail. Status transitions arrive through Echo so your app can show progress from pending to completed or failed.

Balance and failure rules

Verify sufficient balance before accepting a withdrawal. If payout fails after balance is debited, you need a clear retry or refund policy. Idempotency on the request prevents double withdrawal when clients retry on flaky networks.
