Embedded Payments
Accept payments natively within platforms, applications and merchant workflows.
Embedded finance
Finance, embedded where commerce happens.
Financial services work best when they appear exactly where they're needed.
Core is building infrastructure that enables platforms, software providers and merchants to access financial services directly within the flow of business operations.
No separate applications.No fragmented experiences.No unnecessary complexity.
Embedded finance, built around real-world commerce.

Contextual finance
The future of financial services is contextual.
Traditional financial products often sit outside the platforms where businesses operate every day.
Embedded finance changes that.
Instead of sending merchants elsewhere for payments, funding, payouts or financial tools, these services become part of the experience they already use.
The result is a more seamless journey, better adoption and greater value for merchants and technology partners alike.
Capability layer
Built into the flow of business.
Embedded Lending
Access working capital and growth funding directly within the environments merchants already trust.
Embedded Payouts
Move funds efficiently to merchants, suppliers, contractors and partners.
Financial Intelligence
Transform transaction data into actionable insights that help businesses make better decisions.
Revenue-based financing
Payback inside the settlement flow.
Revenue-based financing can sit directly inside payment operations. A merchant receives funding upfront, then payback is collected from daily batch settlements before the remaining funds are paid out.
The financing experience stays connected to trading activity, reducing the need for separate repayment journeys.

Batch settlement
Settlement splits automatically before payout.A small agreed share is routed to payback, while the remaining batch value continues to the merchant.
Beyond acceptance
More than payments.
Payments generate data.
Data creates intelligence.
Intelligence enables better financial decisions.
Core is building infrastructure that connects these layers together, allowing merchants and technology partners to move beyond payment acceptance and unlock broader financial capabilities.

The Core approachCommerce first.
Commerce first.
Finance second.
Many financial products are designed around institutions.
We believe they should be designed around businesses.
Core's approach starts with the merchant journey and works backwards, embedding financial services where they create the most value rather than forcing merchants into disconnected systems and processes.
