PCI DSS (program target / where applicable — certification status confirmed only when evidenced)

Multi-currency accounts

Multi-currency account constructs across 30+ currencies where the licensed EMI is authorised — safeguarding and AML standards remain with BENKER UAB.

Global payouts

Cross-border payout programs designed for institutional corridors (Europe–Asia–Africa), staged to licence permissions and scheme risk appetite.

Secure API integration

API-first integration for payment initiation, reporting, and program management — commercial tooling around authorised EMI rails.

Card acquiring (non-US)

Retail credit-card and agreed MCC programs outside the United States, staged to scheme risk appetite and capital/safeguarding constraints.

EMI payment accounts

E-money and payment account constructs where the licensed EMI is authorised — safeguarding and AML standards remain with BENKER UAB.

EUR settlement access

Target architecture includes CENTROlink / equivalent EUR settlement participation as evidenced in diligence — not assumed live until confirmed.

FX & transfers

Credit transfers and FX capabilities within EMI permissions and published corridors. No retail banking deposit product is offered by Cornerstone Fintech.

Program management

Cornerstone Fintech acts as commercial face / program introducer. The EMI retains regulatory responsibility for licence, AML onboarding standards, and scheme compliance.

Volume discipline

Target interim ramp toward institutional monthly volume with written risk gates — suspendable for AML, fraud, scheme, or capital reasons.

Out of scope

  • • United States card acquiring / US card transactions
  • • Deposit-taking or FDIC-insured banking products
  • • Claims of live EMI service before CoC approval
  • • Speculative or high-risk MCC programmes without written risk approval
