Alfred API Overview

Alfred provides infrastructure for businesses to move funds between digital currencies and local banking systems through a unified API.

The Alfred platform enables developers to convert fiat currencies into stablecoins, off-ramp digital assets into bank payouts, and manage compliant customer onboarding across supported regions.

By abstracting complex payment rails, compliance workflows, and liquidity infrastructure, Alfred allows companies to integrate global digital asset payments using a single programmable interface.

The API supports common financial workflows including customer onboarding, fiat-to-stablecoin conversion, stablecoin payouts, and transaction monitoring.

What You Can Build

Developers use Alfred to power a variety of financial applications:

Cross-border payouts to bank accounts in supported regions
Fiat to stablecoin onramps for digital asset platforms
Stablecoin to fiat offramp services for wallets and exchanges
Marketplace or payroll disbursements using blockchain settlement
Treasury and liquidity operations between fiat and digital assets
Local banking access using virtual accounts, enabling businesses to operate in markets without establishing local legal entities (e.g., issuing Mexican or Brazilian bank accounts for international companies)

These capabilities allow businesses to build global financial products without managing local banking integrations, liquidity infrastructure, or compliance systems.

Typical Integration Flow

Most integrations follow a common sequence:

Create a customer
Complete KYC/KYB onboarding
Request a quote
Register a payment method
Create an onramp or offramp transaction
Monitor transaction status via API or webhooks
Receive settlement to a blockchain wallet or bank account

The following sections of the documentation provide step-by-step integration guides and detailed API references for each stage of this workflow.

System Architecture

Developers integrate their backend systems with the Alfred API to create customers, complete KYC onboarding, register payment methods, generate quotes, and initiate onramp or offramp transactions.

Alfred orchestrates the underlying compliance workflows, banking rails, liquidity infrastructure, and blockchain settlement while providing transaction status updates through APIs and webhooks.
