Run the payments proposition your business is built to own.

Run and scale an agreed Payment Facilitator programme on licensed infrastructure. PayFacLite® provides the platform, operating capability and partner-programme foundation beneath the proposition you control.

Operate a merchant programme built to scale.

PayFacLite® provides the licensed acquiring infrastructure, operating technology and technical capacity that support your payment proposition. You do not have to rebuild the operating layer to get there.

Merchant onboarding and risk
Application, verification, underwriting and risk workflows configured to the policies your programme operates under.
Sub-merchant operating capability
Acceptance, settlement, reconciliation and reporting across the whole merchant portfolio on one platform.
Commercial configuration
Pricing, programme structure and partner arrangements configured within the agreed programme.

Your strategy sets the order. The platform follows it.

The order protects the programme’s responsibilities: what is agreed comes before what is deployed, and what is deployed comes before what is connected.

  1. Programme brief

    Your merchant programme, partner structure and acquiring requirements.

  2. Structure

    Acquiring programme, permissions, responsibilities and the operating profile, assessed and agreed in writing.

  3. Integration

    APIs, events and operational interfaces connected to your systems, and the agreed acquiring environment connected, subject to assessment.

  4. Operating readiness

    Operations, compliance and reporting exercised end to end before anything carries real money.

  5. Go live

    The programme goes live under the agreed responsibilities, and scales on the same platform.

Add PayFacLite® technical delivery where architecture, integration or additional build capacity is wanted. It never changes the responsibilities of the arrangement.
