Miami, FL — 03/04/25 — Link Money, a leader in real-time payment solutions, is excited to announce its partnership with Epick Fantasy, a premier fantasy sports platform. This collaboration enables Epick Fantasy to enhance its payment experience with Link Money’s Pay by Bank solution, offering gamers a faster, secure, and more seamless way to pay in and receive payouts.
Streamlining Payments and Payouts in Fantasy Sports with Pay by Bank
As the fantasy sports industry continues to grow, providing a frictionless and secure payment experience for users is essential. With Link Money's Pay by Bank solution, Epick Fantasy can now offer gamers both instant payouts and seamless one-click payments. This new solution not only facilitates faster payouts, but also allows players to securely deposit funds via their linked bank accounts, bypassing traditional credit card processing issues that can often cause payment delays and fraud risks.
"Partnering with Epick Fantasy allows us to bring real-time money movement to the fantasy sports world, making it easier than ever for players to manage their funds,” said Craig Grant, Director of iGaming for Link Money. "By integrating Link Money’s Pay by Bank, Epick Fantasy is providing its users with instant access to their winnings and a smoother payment experience, while also tackling key issues like low authorization rates and fraud in the gaming industry."
Matt Downs, CEO of Epick Fantasy, shared his excitement about the integration: “We’re beyond excited to partner with Link Money to bring a new level of ease and trust to our EPICK Fantasy community. Deposits and payouts are such a core part of the user experience, and this integration with Pay by Bank allows us to deliver the speed and security our players deserve. Instant access to winnings, fewer failed transactions, and a smoother onboarding process — it’s all part of our mission to make EPICK the most seamless and rewarding fantasy platform out there. Huge thanks to the Link Money team for helping us level up!”
Enhancing the Gamer Experience and Improving Authorization Rates
For online gaming platforms like Epick Fantasy, challenges such as low authorization rates for credit cards and fraud risks can severely impact both the gamer experience and overall revenue. By implementing Link Money's Pay by Bank solution, Epick Fantasy benefits from increased authorization rates, which are typically higher than those for credit cards. With the ability to verify real bank accounts and process payments securely, Epick Fantasy can better distinguish genuine gamers from fraudsters, ensuring smoother and faster transactions for legitimate users.
Instant Payouts and Secure Transactions in Real-Time
Epick Fantasy users can now receive instant payouts directly to their verified bank accounts with just one click. This enhancement improves the user experience by providing quicker access to winnings or remaining balances, a major advantage over traditional payment systems that can cause delays. Additionally, Link Money’s solution ensures that all transactions are verified and compliant with Nacha standards, providing enhanced security and mitigating fraud risks.
A Fast and Simple Integration Process
Link Money’s integration process is designed for ease and efficiency, allowing Epick Fantasy to go live and start processing payments within just 72 hours. Through Link Money's single SDK and API, Epick Fantasy can handle both pay-ins and payouts, simplifying the payment flow and improving operational efficiency.
A Proven Solution for the Gaming Industry
The results of implementing Link Money’s Pay by Bank solution are already clear. In a similar case study with an online casino, authorization rates increased by over 10% without any rise in fraud. This success underscores the power of Link Money’s real-time payment and payout capabilities, which can help platforms like Epick Fantasy boost their authorization rates, reduce friction for gamers, and provide a more satisfying overall experience.
