One-day migration. Zero downtime.
Reliable ramp infrastructure, built for advisor-driven growth.
Rivool lets financial advisors offer clients dollar-denominated yield on-chain, but their ramp provider was holding the model back: unreliable conversions, a weak SLA, and one-size-fits-all KYC that punished small transactions. Pods replaced it with infrastructure built for how Rivool actually operates: 24/7 support for advisors and their clients, KYC that scales with transaction size, and full control over markup so each advisor can price and run promotions their own way. Rivool migrated in a single day with zero downtime, and the advisor-driven pricing model now drives better conversion, retention, and margins on both sides.
Results
- 1 day Migration complete, zero downtime
- 24/7 support Available when advisors need it
- Flexible markup Advisors set their own fees for each client
Situation
Rivool is a platform that lets financial advisors offer their clients access to dollar-denominated yield products on-chain. The model is straightforward: advisors recommend Rivool to their clients, set their own markup fees, and earn a commission on the assets they bring. But scaling required something Rivool didn't have: reliable infrastructure to move client money from BRL into USD and onto the blockchain. Their onramp provider was becoming a blocker.
Challenge
- Service was unreliable: clients couldn't convert when they needed to
- SLA was weak: no guarantees on uptime or support response
- KYC was rigid: everyone faced the same heavy verification, even for small transactions
How Pods helped
- 24/7 support: Advisors get help whenever their clients need it.
- Gradual KYC: A $500 conversion doesn't face the same verification burden as $50,000.
- Pricing control: Advisors set custom markup fees, adjust rates for promotions, structure fees however their business needs.
- Infrastructure that actually works: Not just a technical upgrade, but built for the advisor-driven business model.
Result
Rivool migrated in 1 day with zero downtime. Advisors' clients onboard faster because KYC is proportional to transaction size. And the pricing flexibility means advisors can compete on terms, not just yield. An advisor can now structure fees the way they want, run campaigns ("fund this month and get 1% bonus yield"), or adjust pricing for different client segments. Better conversions. Better retention. Better margins for both Rivool and the advisors who distribute their product.
