The challenge
What was in the way.
Five PSPs, five truths
Each payment service provider reported differently. Reconciliation meant nights of manual matching across spreadsheets, with disputes eating margin.
Compliance exposure
Card data touched too many systems. PCI scope had to shrink, not grow, as transaction volume scaled.
The solution
How we solved it.
We built an event-driven orchestration layer on Kafka with idempotent settlement, a single canonical ledger, and tokenized card flows that reduced PCI scope.
“Reconciliation went from nights of matching to near real-time. The ledger is finally one source of truth.”
Outcome
The bottom line.
Reconciliation time cut 85%, uptime held at 99.99%.
FAQ
About this engagement.
How did you reduce PCI scope?
Tokenized card flows so raw PAN never touches orchestration.
Multi-PSP failover?
Yes - orchestration routes around PSP outages automatically.
Audit support?
Immutable ledger + evidence pack generated per control.
