Regulated Payment Rails are established financial infrastructure systems that operate under strict governmental oversight and legal frameworks, facilitating the transfer of funds between parties. These include traditional banking networks, credit card systems, and interbank settlement systems. They ensure the legality, security, and traceability of financial transactions, providing a foundation for compliant financial operations. Integration with these rails is often a prerequisite for mainstream adoption of new payment technologies.
