Can you support a French payment institution's transition to MiCA-aligned crypto reporting?

Yes, we design transaction reporting and custody architecture that can evolve from PSAN-era expectations toward MiCA's EU-wide technical standards.

Which PSPs and payment methods can you integrate?

We integrate global and regional PSPs, card networks, bank transfer rails, wallets, and QR-based payment methods, selected to match your target markets.

Can you build crypto payment options into our existing checkout?

Yes, we integrate crypto on/off-ramp providers alongside traditional rails behind a single checkout experience.

How does automated reconciliation work?

We ingest PSP settlement files and match them against your internal ledger automatically, surfacing only genuine exceptions for manual review.

Do you help reduce transaction decline rates?

Yes, through smart routing, retry logic, and PSP performance analytics that continuously optimize approval rates.

Payment Gateway & PSP Integration Services in France

Every failed transaction is lost revenue and a trust hit. Hurain Technologies designs and builds payment integration layers — from single PSP connections to full payment orchestration hubs — for fintechs, digital platforms, and marketplaces that need reliable, reconcilable, multi-currency and multi-rail payment flows, including crypto on/off-ramps. In France, that means building to the technical expectations of Europe: Crypto-asset service providers marketing to French residents generally register as a PSAN with the AMF, with AML/CTF supervision coordinated alongside the ACPR.

France Regulatory Landscape

What payment gateway integration buyers in France need to know

Crypto-asset service providers marketing to French residents generally register as a PSAN with the AMF, with AML/CTF supervision coordinated alongside the ACPR.
Payment institutions and e-money issuers are licensed and supervised by the ACPR under France's implementation of EU payment services standards.
France's PSAN regime is progressively aligning with the EU-wide MiCA framework, reshaping reporting and custody expectations for registered firms.
We build the technical controls — KYC/AML workflows, custody security, audit logging — these bodies expect, alongside French-qualified legal and compliance counsel for the registration itself.

The Challenge

Problems we see teams struggling with

High transaction failure and decline rates

Poor PSP routing and retry logic silently loses revenue on every failed or declined transaction.

Manual reconciliation overhead

Finance teams spend days manually matching PSP settlement reports against internal ledgers.

Limited payment method coverage

Missing local payment methods and currencies caps conversion in new markets.

No unified view across multiple PSPs

Operating multiple PSPs without a central orchestration layer makes routing, reporting, and risk management inconsistent.

FX cost leakage on cross-border transactions

Without FX-aware routing, businesses absorb worse conversion rates and hidden markup on every cross-border transaction than necessary.

Checkout abandonment from unsupported local methods

Requiring a card when local users expect a wallet, bank transfer, or QR payment method caps conversion before checkout even begins.
