OffLedger Launches Second Channel Accounts Under Regulated Sandbox, Enabling Seamless Banking API Integration

Mumbai, Maharashtra Oct 15, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - OffLedger, a next-generation connected banking platform, announced the formal launch of its Second Channel Accounts (18-digit Second-Channel IDs) within a regulated sandbox environment, integrating full connectivity between banking APIs and blockchain networks.
This launch brings clarity and legitimacy to what has long been a regulatory grey area in financial technology the concept of second-channel accounts. Traditionally misunderstood as pseudo-banking layers or virtual accounts, OffLedgers system redefines them as API-based, blockchain-anchored digital infrastructure that connects to real banks and ledgers but does not hold or represent public deposits or fiat funds.
Second-channel accounts have always lived between banking and blockchain often misrepresented, sometimes copied, but never standardized, said Charles J, Head Emerging Partners of OffLedger. OffLedger brings them into a regulated sandbox, giving enterprises a legitimate, transparent way to connect both worlds safely.

DLT-Anchored Transparency: 
 Each transaction generates an on-chain audit note containing immutable metadata and hash references, ensuring compliance, traceability, and audit-readiness for institutions.
Why This Matters
The idea of a second-channel has long attracted confusion from fake virtual BANs to unregulated digital accounts misused by shadow platforms. OffLedgers approach removes ambiguity by delivering:
- 
Regulated clarity: Operating within a supervised sandbox under existing fintech frameworks. 
- 
No fund custody: OffLedger does not hold client money, take deposits, or issue loans. It serves purely as a connectivity and data-ledger technology provider. 
- 
Blockchain-anchored authenticity: Every account and transaction is traceable on a distributed ledger for compliance and transparency. 
- 
Future-ready integration: Combines API banking with blockchain rails for next-generation fintech infrastructure.

- 
Receive Second-Channel ID: 
 Upon approval, they receive a unique 18-digit second-channel account number and API credentials.
- 
API Integration: 
 Clients can perform beneficiary management, real-time verification, and transaction initialization via API.
- 
Blockchain Anchoring: 
 Each transaction or account action generates a DLT audit note for transparent record-keeping.
- 
Optional Crypto Interlink: 
 Through OffLedgers OFLS token, clients can optionally bridge into crypto rails for hybrid settlement.
