Sheepy

Inside Sheepy

Sheepy is a cryptocurrency payment gateway that lets online businesses accept, process and pay out digital assets. It operates as Sheepy LLC, with a registered office in Tbilisi, Georgia, and it positions itself for merchants in higher risk sectors, including iGaming, that mainstream processors are often reluctant to serve. The platform handles a broad range of assets, among them Bitcoin, Ether, Litecoin, Tron, XRP and the stablecoins USDT and USDC, and it lets a merchant either convert crypto to fiat on receipt or keep balances in crypto, depending on how the business wants to manage funds and exposure to price swings.

Crypto Payment Tools

Accepting Crypto

The core service is a crypto payment gateway a merchant integrates to take payments in major coins and tokens. Settlement is flexible: a business can have incoming crypto converted to fiat automatically so it is not left holding volatile balances, or hold the assets if it prefers. Settlement and conversion run through one integration, so the merchant does not have to manage separate crypto and banking setups.

Mass Payouts and Onramp

Sheepy provides a mass payout tool for sending many crypto payments in one batch, useful for paying out winnings or settling many parties at once, and an onramp aimed at iGaming that lets players buy cryptocurrency with a bank card, removing a common friction point in funding a crypto deposit.

Compliance and Risk

It takes on KYT and AML compliance on the merchant's behalf, screening transactions with blockchain risk scoring to flag tainted funds. The pitch is that a higher risk business can accept crypto while the gateway carries much of the monitoring and regulatory checking that would otherwise sit with the operator.

Focus on High Risk

Sheepy is a specialist rather than a consumer wallet. It does not court ordinary users with an app; instead it sells infrastructure to online businesses that need to take and send crypto, and it openly serves higher risk verticals such as iGaming that many payment companies avoid. Its proposition pulls together a wide set of supported coins, optional conversion to fiat to manage volatility, and the compliance work of screening crypto flows. For an operator, it becomes relevant where crypto deposits and payouts are part of the cashier, particularly in markets or player segments that favour digital assets over cards and bank transfers. Being based in Georgia and built around merchant integration, it sits firmly on the acquiring side of payments rather than as a brand players hold an account with.
