Six modules. One routing engine. Zero PSP lock-in.

Whaliepay sits one layer above your PSPs — Stripe, Adyen, Mollie, Checkout.com, Worldpay, eighteen of them. We route each transaction to the rail with the highest predicted success for that exact shopper, retry on failure within 200ms, and give your finance team one ledger across the lot.

ENGINE · LIVE

Smart routing across 18 PSPs

The engine picks the rail with the highest predicted success for each shopper, based on BIN, country, time of day, merchant category, device class and 12 other signals. Decision in 14ms, routing in 240ms p95, end-to-end.

RETRY

Cascading retries, invisible to the shopper

When a charge declines on one PSP, retry on the next within 200ms — the shopper never sees the failure. Median uplift on auth rate: +4.6% across our customer base.

OBSERVE

Real-time success-rate observability

Live graphs of success rate by PSP, BIN, country and method. Drill down to a single failed transaction in three clicks. Slack alerts when a PSP's rate drops below threshold.

$auth.diff Q2 → Q3
stripe-eu +4.8%

mollie +2.1%
FX

FX optimization, 60-180bp saved

Choose the cheapest FX rail per currency pair — interbank, your settlement bank or the acquirer. Saves 60-180 basis points per transaction on average.

VAULT

Tokenisation vault, cross-PSP

Cards are tokenised once and reusable across every connected PSP. Migrate acquirers without re-collecting cards from your customers.

LEDGER

Multi-rail ledger, one source of truth

One double-entry ledger across all PSPs, A2A providers and wallets. Auto-reconciled to your bank within 4 hours of settlement, with discrepancies flagged for the finance team.

From your PSP stack to one ledger, in four steps

Whaliepay does not replace your PSPs — it sits one layer above them. Connect what you already have, write the routing rules in plain language, and let the engine do the daily work.

01 · CONNECT

Connect your PSPs

One API call per PSP — or pick from 18 pre-built integrations: Stripe, Adyen, Mollie, Checkout.com, Worldpay, Braintree, Cybersource, Nuvei, Tilopay, plus A2A providers and wallets.

02 · RULES

Define routing rules

"EU card → Adyen primary, Stripe fallback. US card → Stripe primary, Braintree fallback. SEPA → Mollie." Written in plain language in the console, version-controlled.

03 · ROUTE

Whaliepay routes & retries

Every transaction is routed in sub-200ms. Failures retry on the next rail within 200ms, invisible to the shopper. Every decision logged for audit.

04 · LEDGER

One ledger, reconciled

The ledger reconciles to your bank within 4 hours of settlement, auto-flagging discrepancies. Finance closes the month from one screen, not from eighteen PSP exports.

0 PSPs integrated Across cards, A2A and wallets.
0 p95 routing latency End-to-end, including PSP RTT.
0 Average auth-rate uplift Across our 280 customers in 90 days.
0 FX margin saved Per transaction, average.
ConsoleThe routing dashboard your payments lead opens daily

Success-rate visibility down to a single transaction

Whaliepay's console shows you the routing decisions in real time — by PSP, by BIN, by country, by hour, by amount band. Drill down to a single transaction, see which rail it hit, why, and the alternative we could have routed it to.

  • Live success-rate matrix — every PSP × country × method cell updated every 4 seconds.
  • Decline reason taxonomy — Whaliepay maps PSP-specific codes to a unified 24-code taxonomy. Search and group by reason.
  • What-if simulator — replay a month of declined transactions under a different routing rule, see the projected uplift before flipping it live.
  • Alerts to Slack & PagerDuty — when a PSP's rate drops below threshold, the right team is paged in under 30 seconds.

RoutingEighteen rails · one decision per transaction

Routing decisions written in plain language, enforced in 14ms

Whaliepay's routing language reads like English: "EU card under €100 → Adyen, Stripe fallback. EU card over €500 → Stripe, Adyen fallback. Non-EU card → Checkout.com only. iDEAL → Mollie." Write it in the console, version it like code, deploy with a click. Roll back in one tap if the data says otherwise.

  • 14ms decision time — the engine evaluates the rule set and signals before forwarding to the PSP.
  • Cascading retries — if the chosen rail declines, the engine retries on the next-best within 200ms. Median: 1.4 retries per declined attempt.
  • Per-customer routing memory — Whaliepay remembers which rail worked last time for this shopper. The next charge starts there.
  • Network-aware routing — for Visa/Mastercard token-on-file, we route to the issuer's preferred acquirer where one exists.

Three payments leads, three quarters into Whaliepay

Real customers, real numbers, signed off by their CFO for the homepage. Anonymised where they asked us to.

"
We were on Stripe-only for years, watching the auth rate fall as we expanded into Italy and Spain. Whaliepay's routing engine lifted our auth rate by 5.2% in the first month — €1.4M of recovered revenue, on the same shoppers, on the same products. The cheque cleared in week two.

The FX optimisation alone was worth the platform. We were settling EUR-to-GBP through one acquirer at a 250bp markup; Whaliepay routes the GBP leg through our settlement bank at 60bp. Quarterly saving: €380K. The product roadmap built itself from there.
Jonas VermeerCFO · Tessera · SaaS, 62 staff
"
Our auditors used to want CSV exports from six PSPs and a long story about how we reconciled them. Now they get one Whaliepay export with PSP-stamped journal lines and a reconciliation report. The audit moved from three weeks to four days.

Pricing that scales with routed volume, never with seats

Whaliepay charges per routed transaction. No per-user seat fee, no per-PSP integration tax, no FX markup hidden in the rate. Just one number per transaction, falling with volume.

The honest answers to questions payments leads always ask

Are you a PSP yourself?

No. Whaliepay is a routing and reconciliation layer one level above your PSPs. We never touch the money — funds flow from your shopper to your PSP to your bank, on the existing rails. We sit in the routing decision and the reconciliation step.

How do I migrate from a single PSP?

Most Crew-tier migrations are 5 working days end-to-end. We mirror your traffic in shadow mode for 48 hours, validate the routing decisions match what your single PSP would have done, then flip the switch. No customer is impacted, no card is re-collected.

What's the latency overhead?

Whaliepay adds a median 14ms decision overhead and a p95 of 28ms before forwarding to the PSP. End-to-end p95 (including PSP RTT) sits at 240ms across our customer base, on cards. A2A is faster.

Can you handle 3DS / SCA?

Yes. Whaliepay handles the 3DS handshake on behalf of the PSP that requires it, supports frictionless authentication for low-risk shoppers, and routes to the PSP with the best frictionless rate for each shopper. SCA exemptions are managed centrally.

How do you measure success rate?

We measure auth rate (authorisations / attempts) and capture rate (captures / authorisations) per PSP, BIN range, country, method, hour band and amount band. The console exposes every cut. Our SLA is on transparency, not on uplift — every customer sees the raw data.

Is there a free trial?

We don't run a free trial — orchestration platforms are too deep to evaluate in 30 days. Instead, we run a free routing audit: send us a CSV of one month of declines from your current PSP, we model the uplift on your real data and share the projection signed under NDA. Results in 5 working days.

What about chargebacks & disputes?

Chargebacks remain with the PSP that processed the charge — they own that lifecycle. Whaliepay surfaces them in the unified console with the original routing context, helps you build evidence with the captured signals, and tracks win rate across PSPs.

Can you handle A2A / Open Banking?

Yes. Whaliepay routes A2A transactions (TrueLayer, Tink, GoCardless Instant) the same way it routes cards. The routing engine includes A2A in the decision when the merchant has enabled it and the shopper's bank supports it.

Send us one month of declines. We'll model the uplift.

Free routing audit on your real data. Signed NDA, results in 5 working days, projected auth-rate uplift and FX savings sent back as a PDF. No commitment past the audit.
