Sightline Debit Strengthens Consumer Protections in the Gaming Industry, Offering Access to Millions in Aggregate FDIC Insurance Coverage at Network Banks
Cross River Bank to offer access to FDIC insurance coverage via IntraFi bank network at no additional cost to Sightline Debit patrons
LAS VEGAS (October 27, 2025) – Sightline Payments® and Cross River Bank (“Cross River”) announced that Sightline Debit now offers patrons access to millions in aggregate FDIC insurance at network banks through IntraFi Cash Service®, or ICS®. The offering delivers stronger protection for patrons and gives gaming operators a clear point of differentiation.
FDIC protection covers up to $250,000 per depositor, per insured bank, per ownership category. By leveraging ICS, Sightline Debit and Cross River can automatically allocate deposits across participating network banks, to give patrons access to multi-million aggregate FDIC insurance. The exponential increase gives VIP players greater security over their funds.
“This is a meaningful payments innovation for our industry,” said Omer Sattar, co-founder and CEO of Sightline Payments. “By enabling access to multi-bank FDIC insurance through IntraFi’s ICS service, operators can provide their patrons with a higher standard of security and protection without changing how payments are managed or adding cost to the patron. It’s an important step toward patron safety and a distinct competitive advantage for operators.”
IntraFi’s network includes thousands of FDIC-insured institutions nationwide. Its automated, multi-bank sweep approach provides a simple path to access deposit insurance protection by automatically allocating deposits across accounts at participating institutions. Patrons continue to access their balances through their primary Cross River accounts without having to open or manage multiple bank relationships.
Access to the FDIC coverage is offered at no additional cost to Sightline Debit cardholders.
Deposit placement through ICS is subject to the terms, conditions, and disclosures in applicable agreements. A list identifying IntraFi network banks appears at https://www.intrafi.com/network-banks. Certain conditions must be satisfied for “pass-through” FDIC deposit insurance coverage to apply.
