LiquidTrust is a payments innovation company serving FIs, B2B platforms and SMBs globally.

Managed payments turn payments from a liability into an advantage. Instead of building custody, KYB/KYC, escrow logic, and subledgering yourself, you ship faster with a compliant, configurable stack that already embeds trust into each transaction.

Why managed payments?

Building in-house means licensing exposure, slow audits, and never-ending exception handling. Managed payments offload custody and compliance while giving you the controls operators actually need.

What “managed” must include

• Licensed, segregated custody with conditional releases (escrow).

• Built-in KYB/KYC & AML that’s fast for suppliers and audit-ready for you.

• Real subledgering & reconciliation so balances always match custodial accounts.

• Configurable rules & fees per category, ticket size, or risk band.

• Multiple integration modes: hosted/white-label for speed, API for depth.

Architecture fit for multi-party flows

B2B marketplaces need conditional releases, split payouts, and staged approvals—capabilities standard PSPs weren’t designed to handle. See also: Best Online Payment Solutions for B2B Marketplaces and How to Accept Payments on a B2B Marketplace.

Launch patterns (fast → deep)

• Hosted/white-label: go live in days, keep your brand front-and-center.

• API integration: wire up your own flows, events, and release conditions.

• Operator console: approvals, disputes, and evidence chains in one place.

Business impact

Shorter time-to-launch, fewer reversals, happier suppliers, and a trust signal that attracts higher-value users. That combination compounds GMV and reduces compliance drag.
