Among Modulr competitors, Unigox suits a company that holds stablecoins and wants EUR and GBP accounts in the same portal. Keep Modulr for payroll, supplier payments, Direct Debit and cards.

Three steps to add stablecoin accounts

  1. Apply and pass KYB

    Start a company account application at Unigox for business, or book a call for the Payments API. Send your registration documents, ownership, source of funds and intended use; your Modulr checks do not carry over.

  2. Open the accounts you need

    Our team opens the approved EUR, GBP or USD accounts in your Business Portal, next to your stablecoin balances. For payouts, your developers build against the sandbox first.

  3. Move the stablecoin flows

    Give payers who settle with you in EUR or GBP your new account details, and swap to stablecoins when you need to. Payroll, Direct Debit and card spending can stay on Modulr.

Questions about Modulr competitors

Which Modulr competitors suit stablecoin companies?

Unigox is one: EUR and GBP company accounts sit in the same portal as stablecoins, with a swap between them. Modulr's site lists no crypto service. An Ombudsman decision quotes a policy line that excludes crypto businesses. Modulr has said it still serves some crypto companies, so ask Modulr whether it will serve yours.

Does Unigox have an API like the Modulr API?

For a narrower job. The Modulr API opens accounts, makes payments and issues cards, with HMAC-signed requests and a sandbox. The Unigox Payments API sends local payouts funded in USDT or USDC and takes local collections settled in them. It uses an X-API-Key header, signed webhooks and a sandbox opened after KYB.

How does Modulr pricing compare with Unigox?

Modulr publishes monthly plans from £16.25, with a set number of GBP and EUR payments included and a fee for each extra one. At Unigox there is no public price list: your account plan is agreed before you commit, and each Payments API quote shows its fees.

Can my company keep Modulr and add Unigox for stablecoins?

Yes, as two separate setups. Before you pay money from a Modulr account towards a stablecoin balance, check with Modulr: its acceptable use policy, as the Ombudsman quoted it, covers transactions that involve cryptocurrencies.
