Vield Launches Lending-as-a-Service to Deliver Bitcoin-Backed Credit Infrastructure

SYDNEY, Nov. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- To address the growing need for secure digital asset liquidity, Vield, an Australian digital asset lender, today announced the launch of its Lending-as-a-Service (LaaS) platform. This professional solution empowers financial institutions, fintechs, and digital asset platforms to offer Bitcoin-backed lending without building the underlying credit, compliance, and technology stack.

Bitcoin-backed lending offers a significant opportunity for platforms whose customers require liquidity without divesting their Bitcoin. However, launching such products demands licensing, custody, and funding—presenting considerable barriers. Vield's LaaS platform removes these obstacles with a ready-to-deploy infrastructure, allowing partners to retain their brand relationships. Offering referral, white-label, hybrid, and API integrations, implementation takes just days to weeks. Multiple launch partners have already signed on.

Institutional-Grade Safety and Reliability

Demonstrating a steadfast commitment to safety, Vield's production-tested infrastructure has facilitated over $50 million in approved loans with zero defaults since 2022. Client Bitcoin is held in segregated, insured cold storage with Zodia Custody, audited by Hashlock, and reinforced by a cybersecurity partnership with Revio. Risk management is automated through Integral. Vield also secured an ATO Private Binding Ruling on the capital gains tax treatment of Bitcoin pledged as collateral.

Flexible Capital and Operational Support

Partners can adopt Vield's full stack or use their own custody and capital. Supported by a $20 million warehouse facility, partners can originate loans without committing their balance sheet. Beyond technology, Vield shares the operational experience necessary to run a successful lending business.

"Building a Bitcoin-backed lending product properly is not just an engineering challenge. It requires the risk framework, the custody, the monitoring and the operational experience to perform when markets move quickly," said Johnny Phan, Co-Founder and CEO of Vield. "We have spent years building that infrastructure. Lending-as-a-Service lets other platforms access the same engine — and the experience behind it."

Vield has already signed commitments from crypto exchanges, banks, fintechs, neobanks, non-bank lenders, wealth managers, and digital asset platforms.
