Everything merchants need to accept payments and get paid

Card processing, M-Pesa collections, multi-currency acceptance and settlement in USD or USDT — delivered through one integration on certified gateway infrastructure.

Payment gateway

Card acceptance on certified infrastructure

The gateway connects your checkout to the card networks. Card data is captured on hosted fields or a hosted payment page, tokenized immediately, and screened by 3-D Secure 2 before authorization. Your systems never handle raw card numbers, which keeps you outside PCI scope for card storage.

  • Visa, Mastercard, American Express, JCB, Discover, UnionPay, Diners Club and Maestro.
  • Gateway layer provided by Akurateco on PCI DSS Level 1 certified technology.
  • Smart transaction routing to improve authorization rates.
Integration options
Hosted payment page, hosted fields, server-to-server API
Authentication
3-D Secure 2 with frictionless flow support
Typical authorization time
Under two seconds
M-Pesa & mobile money

Collect the way East Africa pays

M-Pesa is the default payment method for millions of customers in Kenya. Payixay lets you trigger STK push prompts at checkout, receive paybill/till collections, and reconcile mobile money alongside card volume in one dashboard — one report, one settlement view, instead of a separate M-Pesa statement to match by hand.

Collection methods
STK push, paybill and till integration
Reconciliation
Unified reporting with card transactions
Best for
Merchants with Kenyan and East African customers
Alternative payment methods

Let customers pay the way they already do

Card acceptance covers most international customers; alternative payment methods cover the rest. Payixay supports mobile money, bank transfer rails where available, and local payment options — processed through the same integration and reconciled in the same reporting as your card volume. Which APMs are available depends on your market and acquiring configuration, and is confirmed during onboarding.

Method families
Mobile money, bank transfers (where available), local payment options
Integration
Same API and hosted checkout as cards — no separate build
Reconciliation
Unified reporting with card and M-Pesa volume
Availability
Market-specific, confirmed during onboarding
USD ⇄ USDT settlement

Choose how you receive your money

Merchants can receive settlement in US dollars through banking partners, or in USDT for faster cross-border payout. USDT is a stablecoin designed to track the US dollar; transfers settle on blockchain rails rather than correspondent banking, which can cut payout times from days to hours for some corridors.

What you should know: USDT’s value depends on the issuer maintaining its dollar peg, and stablecoin regulation varies by jurisdiction. USDT settlement is offered subject to compliance review and applicable law in your market, and is not investment advice.
Settlement currencies
USD (bank transfer) or USDT
Conversion
USD ⇄ USDT at disclosed rates, no hidden spread
Availability
Subject to KYC/KYB and jurisdiction review
Multi-currency

Price in the customer’s currency

Accept payments in major currencies including USD, EUR, GBP and KES. Customers pay in the currency they expect; you settle in your chosen currency. Conversion fees are disclosed in your merchant agreement — there is a cost to FX, and we state it rather than hiding it in the rate.

Fraud protection & monitoring

Risk screening before settlement, not after

Every transaction passes through real-time risk scoring: velocity checks, geographic and device signals, and configurable rules per merchant profile. 3-D Secure 2 shifts liability for authenticated card transactions to the issuer. Suspicious transactions are held for review before funds move, and you see the reason codes in your dashboard.

  • Real-time transaction monitoring with per-merchant rule sets.
  • Chargeback alerts and dispute documentation support.
  • AML transaction monitoring aligned with our compliance program.

Merchant onboarding

KYC/KYB that respects your time

Onboarding is a compliance process, and we run it properly: business registration documents, director identification and beneficial ownership checks. Complete applications are normally reviewed within two business days. We tell you upfront if your business category or market is one we cannot support, rather than after you’ve integrated.

Documents
Business registration, director ID, beneficial ownership
Review time
Typically two business days for complete applications
