Platform · Routing

Maximize authorization rates with intelligent routing.

Route every authorization to the optimal BIN sponsor based on geography, MCC, and live decline signals — failover in under a network round-trip.

Deep dive

Routing as a first-class engineering primitive.

Failover

Sub-network-round-trip failover, transparent to cardholders.

If a sponsor goes degraded, traffic shifts to a healthy BIN before the merchant POS sees a decline. PANs stay stable — no re-tokenization across sponsors.

Rules engine

Per-authorization policies, evaluated in under 8ms.

An 80+ signal rules engine you can pin per program, per MCC, per region. Push new rules without a deploy and observe their authorization impact in real time.

Economics

Optimize for net interchange, not gross volume.

Choose the route that maximizes net economics by program and MCC. Telemetry by route, issuer, and region — exposed via API and dashboard.
