What I find interesting about crypto cards and fintech apps lately is that most users only see the front-end convenience, but there’s a huge amount of payment infrastructure working behind the scenes. Things like approval rates, failed transactions, settlement speed, and fraud monitoring can completely change the user experience even if the app itself looks great.

I was reading this breakdown recently: https://corefy.com/blog/payment-manager-kpis and it actually explains well how payment teams measure system performance through KPIs like transaction success rate, routing efficiency, chargeback ratios, and processing uptime. It made me realize how much operational work goes into making these crypto payment products feel “instant” and reliable for users worldwide.

As more crypto cards and stablecoin payment solutions become mainstream, I think strong payment analytics and infrastructure management will matter just as much as the blockchain side itself.
