Paymentology
What it is
Paymentology is a paid card issuing and processing platform for fintechs, digital banks, banks, financial institutions, and other organizations running card programmes. It supports debit, credit, prepaid, hybrid, virtual, numberless, and crypto-linked cards, with both physical and virtual options. Its decision engine lets clients configure rules for authorisation and transaction workflows. Issuers can activate or deactivate cards, block international transactions, restrict merchant categories, set spending limits, and lock use to trusted devices. Paymentology says its Data Intelligence capability supplies 120 data lines per transaction in real time. A client portal shows performance, balances, and spend trends, with data described as fully encrypted. Integrations include Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay, supported by APIs, documentation, tools, and specialist help. Named networks include Visa, Mastercard, BancNet, Mada, and GIM. The platform offers API access, multi-program support, funding and balances, spend controls, and KYC/KYB tools. Pricing is available on request, and a self-service demo requires no sign-up.
