Iron supports three integration models: direct use (B2B), serving business customers (B2B2B), and serving individual consumers (B2B2C).

At a Glance

ModelWho uses Iron’s servicesExampleIntegration
B2BYour company directlyFintech using stablecoin rails for treasuryAPI or Dashboard
B2B2BYour business customersPSP offering stablecoin payouts to merchantsAPI or Dashboard + Iron App
B2B2CYour individual usersNeobank offering EUR virtual accounts to retail customersAPI or Dashboard + Iron App

B2B — Direct Use

Use Iron for your own operations. You are the end customer — no downstream users. Examples:
  • Cross-border payroll — converting USDC to EUR and paying employees via SEPA
  • Exchange settlement through stablecoin-to-fiat Offramps
  • Corporate treasury across fiat and stablecoins via Virtual Accounts
Integrate through the API or the Partner Dashboard.

B2B2B — Serving Business Customers

Embed Iron into your product. You act as a Partner — your business customers become Customers of Iron. Examples:
  • PSP offering stablecoin money transfers to merchant clients
  • Banking-as-a-service platform enabling neobank clients to issue virtual EUR accounts
  • Payroll provider letting companies pay contractors in stablecoins
Each business customer completes KYB onboarding and gains access to Onramp, Offramp, Swap, Virtual Accounts, Third Party Payments, and Stablecoin Issuance.

B2B2C — Serving Individual Users

Embed Iron into your consumer-facing product. You act as a Partner — your individual users become Customers of Iron. Examples:
  • Neobank offering named EUR and USD virtual bank accounts to retail customers
  • Crypto wallet enabling users to onramp fiat to stablecoins via personal vIBAN
  • Remittance app letting users send stablecoins and have recipients cash out to local bank accounts
Individual customers complete KYC through one of three frameworks:
FrameworkHow it works
KYC RelianceIron relies on your existing KYC — requires a regulatory agreement
KYC OutsourcingYou collect KYC data on Iron’s behalf and submit via API
Direct OnboardingIron handles KYC through a hosted verification flow
Regardless of the onboarding framework, every customer is a direct customer of Iron for compliance purposes. See Onboarding Lifecycle for the full flow.

Iron App — Whitelabel Frontend

For B2B2B and B2B2C setups, Iron offers Iron App — a whitelabel frontend that your end customers (the last B or C) use directly. Iron App gives your customers account management, transaction history, onboarding, and access to Iron’s products — without you building a custom UI. You manage configuration through the Partner Dashboard or API. Iron App handles the end-customer experience. When to use Iron App:
  • Go live without building a frontend
  • End customers need direct access to onboarding, account management, and transaction history
  • Keep the customer-facing experience up to date with new Iron features automatically

How to Integrate

Two integration paths. Use both simultaneously.

API

Create customers, onboard them, set up Autoramps, and monitor transactions programmatically.

Partner Dashboard

Manage customers, Autoramps, API keys, and transactions at app.iron.xyz.
Most partners use the API for programmatic workflows (customer creation, Autoramp setup, webhook-driven monitoring) and the Dashboard for operations (reviewing customer status, managing API keys, inspecting transactions).
