Amboss, Bitcoin Payments, and Voltage Partner: Revolutionizing Enterprise Transactions

Amboss and Voltage team up to redefine Bitcoin payments, turning cost centers into revenue streams. Discover how their partnership is changing the game for businesses.

The collaboration between Amboss Technologies and Voltage is creating waves, offering a new enterprise payment stack that could redefine how businesses handle Bitcoin and stablecoin transactions. This partnership aims to transform payment processing from a cost center into a potential revenue stream. Let's dive into what this means for the future of Bitcoin payments.

Instant, Low-Cost Payments with Amboss and Voltage

The core of this collaboration combines Voltage’s Lightning Payments API with Amboss Rails, enabling instant, low-cost payments and automated yield generation on self-custodied Bitcoin. This is particularly beneficial for high-volume industries like iGaming, prediction markets, and exchanges, where fees can consume a significant portion of total transaction volume.

Addressing Key Problems in Bitcoin Transfers

The Amboss–Voltage integration tackles two major issues: high transaction costs and idle Bitcoin holdings. Voltage’s API facilitates near-instant, global BTC and stablecoin transfers via the Lightning Network, while Amboss Rails dynamically manages liquidity, allowing businesses to earn yield by routing payment flow across the network.

In simpler terms, this partnership helps businesses process Bitcoin and stablecoin payments instantly and cheaply while turning idle balances and payment costs into a source of yield. It's like turning water into wine, but with Bitcoin!

Statements from the CEOs

“Payments have long been a drag on margins, but with this combination, we’re flipping the script,” said Jesse Shrader, CEO of Amboss. “Rails provides the yield engine to attract and optimize capital, while Voltage’s Payments API simplifies Lightning adoption. Together, it’s a flywheel that makes enterprise payments and treasury management more efficient and profitable.”

Voltage CEO Graham Krizek added that the stack unlocks new capital strategies for businesses. “By generating self-custodial yield through Lightning, companies can turn idle Bitcoin into a productive asset that offsets custody costs while supporting real payment flow,” he said.

Key Innovations and Future Implications

A notable innovation is Voltage’s Taproot Assets support, which enables seamless, in-flight exchanges between Bitcoin and stablecoins within a single payment. This allows companies to integrate stablecoin payments without compromising on compliance or security, backed by Voltage’s SOC 2 Type II certification.

Early enterprise pilots in iGaming and financial platforms are already testing the system, reporting up to 30% reductions in effective payment processing costs through yield offsets. This integration also marks a step toward machine-economy-ready infrastructure, where liquidity and payments interact autonomously across the Lightning Network.

The Amboss–Voltage partnership underscores a growing trend in Bitcoin infrastructure—one where businesses don’t just move value but also earn from the flow of it.

Broader Trends in Crypto

Even Bitcoin maximalists are recognizing the importance of stablecoins. Block, a Bitcoin-first company, is considering adding stablecoin support to Cash App. According to Block’s Bitcoin product lead, Cash App users will be able to pay merchants in Bitcoin, with the platform automatically converting the customer’s cash into cryptocurrency and sending it to the merchant.

So, what’s the takeaway? Amboss, Voltage, and the rise of Bitcoin payments are not just about moving money; they’re about creating new opportunities and efficiencies. Who knows, maybe one day we'll all be paying for our coffee with lightning-fast Bitcoin transactions. Until then, stay tuned and keep stacking sats!
