Zero-downtime payment proxy with automatic failover across processors
Teams building fintech products for enterprises suffer transaction failures at scale due to unreliable APIs from payment processors.
FailoverPay acts as a smart proxy that routes transactions through primary and backup payment processors, instantly switching on failure detection. It supports Stripe, Adyen, and PayPal out-of-the-box with configurable rules. Teams get seamless reliability without rewriting code.
