★ ABOUT

Basis Points is a business-to-business technology company. We build the matching engine, trader-facing dashboard, hedging router, risk system, market-maker daemon and APIs that sit behind a live 24/7 multi-asset perpetuals venue. We license that stack to operators who want to launch under their own brand.

Not to be confused with:“basis point” — the financial unit of measurement equal to 0.01% (one hundredth of a percentage point). That’s a rate quote. This is a technology company. The company name is a nod to the unit, but every reference to “Basis Points” on this domain refers to the company, its platform and its team.

A vertically-integrated exchange stack: the Rust matching engine that clears every order, the browser-native trading UI, the hedging router that off-loads exposure to external venues, the HOUSE market-maker that provides internal liquidity, custody integrations (Fireblocks, BitGo, Copper, MPC providers), a prediction-markets module, and REST + WebSocket + FIX 4.4 APIs for algo desks and institutional flow.

Same codebase, one matching engine, one risk model, one wallet — across crypto perpetuals, forex, equity perpetuals, commodities and indices. See the platform overview for the full component map.

Prop trading firms — the challenge-account platform lives inside the same engine, with drawdown tracking, kill switches, payout automation and anti-abuse detection as engine-level primitives. See the prop-firm solution.

Brokerages adding crypto perpetuals to an existing FX or CFD book — one wallet, one margin model, one ops console across the whole product mix.

Fintechs and neobanks adding a trading tab to an existing consumer or business app — headless-mode APIs let you keep your own UI on top of our engine.

Prediction market operators — the same engine clears short-dated binary UP/DOWN markets on the underlyings it already prices.

The team behind Basis Points has 30 years of collective experience across algorithmic trading, FIX connectivity, FX and crypto exchange operations, market-making and arbitrage, matching-engine engineering and low-latency infrastructure. We’ve built and run this stack in production before — that’s why the reference venue is live and why an operator can be branded and trading in one to three weeks rather than one to two years.
