How long does an integration actually take?

A hosted checkout is one API call and one webhook — most teams have it running in sandbox the same day. The longer pole is commercial onboarding per market, which we run in parallel while you build.

Do I need a local entity in every market?

No. We hold the local acquiring relationships, so you can collect in local currency and settle in USD to your existing entity. Some markets have specific requirements; we tell you up front which ones and why.

Which currency do you settle in?

Balances and settlements are always in USD. You collect in your customers’ local currency, we convert at a rate quoted before you commit, and you are paid out in USDC, USDT or fiat — the rate that applied is on every settlement report.

What happens when a local provider goes down?

Orchestration routes around it. You set rules by country, method and amount, and transactions fail over to the next provider automatically instead of failing at checkout.

Is card data ever stored on my servers?

No. Hosted fields send the PAN straight to our vault and hand your server a token, which keeps your PCI scope to a single SAQ A questionnaire.

How does pricing work?

Pricing is per market and per method, because local rails price very differently from cards. Tell us your volumes and the countries you want, and you get a written quote with no setup fees.

Powering global payments for e-commerce, SaaS, travel, gaming and fintech businesses: optimized checkout and subscription billing, metered billing and dunning, multi-currency bookings and delayed capture, instant top-ups and fast player payouts, and embedded payments with KYC onboarding and split payouts.

Developers

A hosted checkout in one call. Typed SDKs for Node, Python, Ruby, Go, PHP and Java, idempotency keys on every request so retries never double-charge, signed webhooks with automatic replay, and a sandbox that mirrors production exactly. Read the API documentation.

Security and compliance

Compliance is the default, not a project. Card data never touches your servers — KangooPay tokenizes every PAN, encrypts with AES-256 at rest and TLS in transit, and re-validates its card environment against PCI DSS every year, with quarterly ASV scans and annual third-party penetration testing. Hosted fields keep your own PCI scope to a single SAQ A questionnaire. EU customer data stays in the EU — GDPR data residency under a ready-to-sign DPA, with SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 controls behind it.

On top of that: AML and counter-terrorist-financing screening against PEP and sanctions lists, KYC and identity verification tuned per market, real-time fraud scoring with 3-D Secure 2 step-up and PSD2/SCA support, and isolated production environments under least-privilege access, 24/7 monitoring and a 99.99% uptime SLA.
