Payments infrastructure is not bought on features. It is bought once security, compliance, risk and legal have all said yes. This page is written for those four readers.
Card data
Accept² answers a funding question about a card the issuer already owns. It does not issue, provision or store credentials.
No credential issuance or provisioning — the issuer's existing card is used
PCI DSS aligned architecture and scope minimisation
Encryption in transit and at rest; key management separated by environment
No PAN in application logs, analytics or support tooling
Data residency & deployment
Where the platform runs is the institution's decision, not the vendor's. It deploys inside your own control boundary.
In-region deployment, including private and on-premises models
Sub-processor register maintained and disclosed
Data minimisation — only what the funding decision requires
Documented retention and deletion positions per data class
Scheme rules
Built against current Visa and Mastercard requirements for wallet enablement and service providers.
Service-provider registration obligations identified per deployment
Funding-decision flows built to scheme authorisation specification
Dispute and chargeback data preserved to scheme evidentiary standards
Network mark usage reviewed against brand requirements
Regulatory position
A technology provider to regulated institutions. Accept² does not issue credentials, hold customer funds, or provide regulated payment services.
Issuer retains the licence, the credential and the customer relationship
Outsourcing documentation prepared for supervisory review
Liability allocation unchanged from the issuer's existing position
Audit and inspection rights available to the institution
Resilience
What happens when something breaks
A component in the authorisation path has to have an answer for its own
failure. Accept²'s is to get out of the way.
Fails safe, not open
If a decision cannot be returned in time, the issuer applies its configured default. Nothing is left hanging.
Strict latency budget
The decision call is bounded and measured against
the issuer's own host under load during integration — not assumed from a datasheet.
Reconstructable decisions
Every decision records its inputs, the policy
version that ran and the outcome, so an auditor, a disputes team or an engineer can
rebuild exactly what happened.
Diligence
What we send to your review teams
Architecture and data-flow docs, the sub-processor register, security controls, the scheme-compliance position, and outsourcing documentation. Better before the first workshop than after.
Yes. Institutional customers test against a dedicated environment. For private deployments the environment is yours, so your existing testing regime applies.
Versioned artefacts, not config someone edits in production. Testable against replayed traffic, and every decision records the version that produced it.
We would rather be precise than impressive. The architecture is built to PCI DSS and scheme requirements; certification status per deployment model is stated in writing during diligence.
Send us your diligence questionnaire.
We would rather answer the hard version early than discover it three months into a procurement cycle.
