SafeGate Payments

What is SafeGate Payments and what do they do?

SafeGate Payments is a payment gateway operated by ASTONTECH LIMITED, a UK-registered company based in London. It builds its offering around high-risk industries — iGaming, Forex, cryptocurrency, and e-commerce — segments that mainstream acquirers frequently decline to onboard because of elevated chargeback and fraud exposure.

The gateway combines card and bank-transfer processing with tooling aimed specifically at high-risk operators: fraud and risk monitoring, chargeback and dispute management, and support for cryptocurrency and other alternative payment methods alongside standard card rails. Merchants connect via an API, and SafeGate Payments pairs the integration with 24/7 client support and compliance guidance for the regulatory environments its target industries operate in.

Through its integration with Corefy, SafeGate Payments processes bank-transfer payments and payouts in Turkish lira (TRY), Argentine peso (ARS), and Azerbaijani manat (AZN), using an invoice flow where the customer completes payment off-platform.

Who is it for?

SafeGate Payments is built for merchants that struggle to get approved by conventional payment service providers: iGaming and gambling operators, Forex brokers, cryptocurrency businesses, and e-commerce merchants with above-average chargeback rates. Its currency coverage — TRY, ARS, and AZN — also makes it a practical fit for businesses specifically targeting customers in Turkey, Argentina, or Azerbaijan.

Why do businesses choose SafeGate Payments?

• Built for high-risk verticals — dedicated onboarding and processing for iGaming, Forex, and crypto merchants that face higher decline rates with generalist PSPs.
• Crypto and alternative payments — accepts cryptocurrency transactions alongside cards and bank transfers, useful for merchants whose customers prefer non-card methods.
• Chargeback and dispute tools — dedicated dispute management aimed at reducing chargeback exposure, a recurring cost for high-risk merchants.
• Regional currency reach — direct processing in TRY, ARS, and AZN gives merchants access to these markets without setting up separate local banking relationships.
• API-based integration — connects to existing platforms through an API rather than requiring a custom build.

Businesses using Corefy can simply obtain a MID from SafeGate Payments and connect it to Corefy's dashboard in a few clicks, without dealing with any integration work.
