Three things you need.
One team that owns them.

Acquiring, gateway and banking-style accounts are usually three vendors, three contracts and three people to chase. Here they are one.

Merchant account

Underwriting done by people who read the business, not just the MCC. We build the file with you, say what is missing up front, and take the applications other acquirers shelve.

  • Wide coverage of payment methods, currencies and transaction types
  • Secure online trading from the first live transaction
  • Complex and higher-risk verticals reviewed on their merits

Payment gateway

One integration, many payment methods. Add a market or a method later without touching your checkout again — the routing changes on our side, not in your codebase.

  • Quick API integration and plugins for popular shopping carts
  • Premium reporting and reconciliation built for month-end close
  • Virtual terminal: pre-authorisation, sales, refunds and voids

Idea to first transaction

  1. Tell us what you sell

    A short form and one call: the product, the markets, the volumes and the history.

  2. We build the file

    Underwriting assembled with you, with the questions flagged before they are asked.

  3. Integrate once

    API or cart plugin, with sandbox keys as soon as the account is approved.

  4. Go live, and stay covered

    A named manager stays on the account and brings the next method or market to you.

From incorporation to your
first settlement — and after it.

Everything below the processing itself. Take the rungs you need; we bring the next one to the table before you have to ask for it.

Company incorporation

Register the entity in a jurisdiction that will actually be underwritten, not one you have to redo later.

Tax and legal advisory

Contracts, terms and tax structure reviewed by people who have read a scheme rulebook.

E-commerce consulting

Payment mix, checkout flow and conversion — reviewed against what your authorisation data shows.

Website creation

Reporting and reconciliation

Settlement files, fees and refunds laid out so finance can close the month without rebuilding the data by hand. Exports go where your ledger already looks.

For resellers, agents and ISOs

Put our stack behind your client book.

A dedicated partner track: your clients get the same underwriting, gateway and account management; you keep the relationship and get a named contact on our side.

Become a partner

Your checkout should not change every time a market does.

Integrate once. Adding a method, a currency or a market afterwards is a configuration change on our side — you do not re-platform, re-certify or re-test your checkout to sell somewhere new.

  • REST API with idempotent requests and signed webhooks
  • Plugins for the common shopping carts, keys and nothing else
  • Virtual terminal for pre-authorisation, sales, refunds and voids
API integration guide
# Take a card payment with 3-D Secure 2
POST /v1/payments
Authorization: Bearer sk_live_…

{
  "amount": 4990,
  "currency": "EUR",
  "method": "x4b4-ma66",
  "x4b4-sf00": true,
  "three_d_secure": "required",
  "reference": "ORD-10482"
}

One authenticated call takes an amount, a currency and a method.

# Plugin settings — no checkout code
gateway_key   = "pk_live_…"
mode          = "live"
methods       = ["x4b4-ma66", "sepa", "wallets"]
settlement    = "EUR"

# The plugin renders exactly the methods
# your account is enabled for. Adding one
# later is a switch on our side.

On a hosted cart there is no checkout code to write at all.

# Pre-authorise now, settle when you ship
POST /v1/payments/pre-auth      -> auth_9f2c

# Then, from the terminal or the API
POST /v1/payments/auth_9f2c/capture
POST /v1/payments/auth_9f2c/refund
POST /v1/payments/auth_9f2c/void

# Same ledger, same reporting, same fees.

Phone and back-office orders, without a developer in the loop.

What do underwriters actually look at?

The business behind the application, not only the MCC: what you sell, how you deliver it, your refund and chargeback history, where your customers are, and who stands behind the company. We tell you which of those will be questioned before the file is submitted.

Why do applications get declined elsewhere?

Usually because a generic provider scores the vertical rather than reading the file — subscriptions, travel, digital goods and marketplaces all trip automated rules. We review the business on its merits and say plainly whether we can approve it.

How long does onboarding take?

Days rather than weeks once the documents are in. The delay in this industry is almost never the decision; it is the back-and-forth over missing paperwork, so we give you the full list up front and chase it with you.

How are fees presented?

As a written schedule before you sign: scheme and interchange costs, our margin, settlement terms and anything conditional, itemised. Nothing appears for the first time on your first statement.

Who manages the account after go-live?

A named account manager who already knows your file, plus the technical contact who handled your integration. Proactive means we come to you when a new method, market or rule change is worth acting on.

Can we keep our existing checkout?

In most cases yes. The gateway sits behind your current flow through the API or a cart plugin, and the methods you offer are configured on our side rather than rebuilt in your front end.

Tell us what you sell.
We will tell you what we can approve.

A short qualification form — the business, the volumes, the markets. A named person comes back to you, not an automated decline.
