ZenPays
What it is
ZenPays is a payment orchestration platform covering authorization, capture, refunds, payouts, disputes, and settlement across fiat and stablecoin rails. The homepage says it connects 300+ providers across 155+ countries. Routing policies can weigh cost, speed, geography, and success rate, with cascading retries for soft declines. Payment features include payment intents, 3DS orchestration, tokenization, payment links, invoicing, multi-currency support, and recurring payments. Risk controls include AI scoring, device and IP intelligence, velocity limits, chargeback attribution, manual review triggers, and reason codes. Settlement tools include payouts, refunds, reconciliation exports, multi-currency treasury, automated fund sweeping, and stablecoin settlement. Developers receive one REST API with provider abstraction, webhooks, idempotency keys, and a sandbox for simulating declines and 3DS flows. Security listings include AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit, tokenization, audit trails, role-based access, and SSO. Merchants must complete KYB/KYC and underwriting; some industries and use cases may be restricted. Pricing is disclosed in merchant agreements and requires a demo or inquiry.
