Find The Right Payment Service Providers
for Your Trading Business

LF Match Matrix is a free matchmaking tool for firms looking for a payment service provider. You answer a short series of questions about your business, the services you need, the regions and currencies you operate in and your regulatory status. The tool then scores every verified provider against your requirements and returns a shortlist of the ones that genuinely fit. There are no cold calls and no need to send the same brief to a dozen providers.

A payment service provider (PSP) handles the movement of money on behalf of a business. Depending on their licence that can include multi-currency accounts, cross-border payments, FX conversion, client pay-ins and payouts, card issuing and virtual accounts. Providers range from banks and Electronic Money Institutions (EMIs) to Payment Institutions and Money Services Businesses, and each is licensed for a different mix of services and regions.

Any business that collects or sends money across borders usually needs one. In financial services that means retail and institutional brokers, proprietary trading firms, asset managers, digital asset businesses and prime of prime providers. Outside trading it covers fintechs, money transfer operators, marketplaces, iGaming operators and corporate treasury teams. Firms in regulated or higher risk sectors often need a provider that specifically supports their industry, which is why a general search rarely works.

Every provider listed on LiquidityFinder completes a detailed capability questionnaire covering their licences and regulators, the services they offer, the regions they can send to and receive from, currency coverage, settlement speeds, third party payment support and the client types they onboard. That information comes directly from the provider rather than from marketing material, and they are responsible for keeping it current. Your matches are scored against those declared capabilities.

Yes. The matching tool is completely free for firms looking for a provider, and using it places you under no obligation. You are not charged to see your matches and you decide which providers, if any, you want to speak to. Creating a free LiquidityFinder account lets you view your full shortlist and contact the providers directly.

Matches are generated by comparing your answers against each provider's declared capabilities, so a provider cannot buy its way into a result it does not qualify for. Scoring reflects how well a provider meets the requirements you specified. Where several providers match equally well, LiquidityFinder members and verified listings may be shown first, and that ordering never changes whether a provider matches your criteria in the first place.

Start the questionnaire and work through the steps. You will be asked about your company and regulatory status, the services you need, where you send and receive money, the currencies involved, your monthly volumes and whether you need third party payments, segregated accounts or API access. Each answer narrows the field. It takes a few minutes, and you can go back and change any answer before you finish.

Once you complete the questionnaire your shortlist is shown with a match score for each provider. Sign in or create a free account to view the full results, then select the providers you want to approach and contact them in one go rather than repeating your requirements to each in turn. Providers receive the context you have already given, so first conversations start further along.
