Delayed settlements, high fees, chargebacks, and fraud are eroding margins and player trust. In the U.S. alone, over $100 million is lost annually to chargeback and payment fraud in iGaming, while card processing eats up 1.5% to 3.5% of gross gaming revenue. Settlement times between 24–72 hours trap operator liquidity and frustrate players expecting real-time experiences. And with fraud rings exploiting "card-not-present" systems, iGaming remains one of the most heavily flagged sectors by banks and processors.
It's time for a new standard — and that standard is Bitcoin's Lightning Network.
Join us for a practical and forward-looking webinar where we break down how Lightning payments and stablecoins over Lightning are delivering instant, fraud-resistant, regulator-friendly settlement infrastructure purpose-built for the iGaming industry.
