P26M connects your checkout to the payment service providers (PSPs) you choose — the companies that process online payments for you. You keep your contracts, integrate once, and set the routing rules yourself.
The retry applies to payments your server sends through the API.
The reality today
Payment infrastructure grows by accident, not by design.
Companies start with one PSP. Then they add a second as a backup and a third for a new market. Each provider brings its own API, its own reports and its own error codes, and the integration work piles up.
01
First, a single provider is connected. Simple and predictable, for now.
02
A second provider joins as a backup. Two integrations, two reconciliation flows.
03
More providers follow by market, method and vertical. Four integrations, four sets of bugs.
Declined payments you never see
Each declined payment is a customer who wanted to pay. With one provider, there is nowhere else to send it.
Vendor lock-in
When the provider raises fees, changes its API or goes down, you have no second route ready.
No central view
Payments live in four dashboards and settlement files in four formats. Finance matches them by hand.
Every new market means new code
Each new market, currency or method needs another integration, and your engineers are already busy.
How routing works
You set the rules. P26M picks the provider.
In the dashboard, you decide where each payment goes. P26M applies your rules to every payment and chooses among the providers that match.
You set routing rules in the dashboard. A rule either sends a payment to the providers you pick (route) or stops it (block).
A rule can check the currency, payment method, card brand, card type, country or BIN, issuing bank, amount, operation type and schedule. A built-in simulator shows which rule a test payment would hit.
Among the providers that match, P26M leaves out those in poor health and picks the one with the lowest rate.
If a provider declines a payment that your server sent through the API, P26M makes one more attempt through another provider on your account.
The retry works for API payments only. On the P26M hosted payment page there is no retry yet, and a provider timeout is not retried.

P26M routes payments. It does not stand between you and your money.
You own the contracts.
You sign directly with each acquirer or PSP. An acquirer is the bank that accepts card payments on your behalf. Rates and terms are between you and them.
Money goes straight to you.
The provider pays out to your account on the schedule in your contract.
P26M does not hold funds.
We never receive or keep your customers’ money.
Where payments are the product
Built for industries where payments are the product.
Six segments where merchants work with more than one provider and need one place to run them.
01
E-commerce & marketplaces
High volume and thin margins. Rules by card brand, bank and amount send each payment to the provider with the lowest rate.
Cost per payment
02
Fintech & lending
Money moves both ways: payments in and payouts to customers. Both run through the same API and the same dashboard.
Payments and payouts
03
iGaming & betting
Merchants here often work with several providers at once. P26M puts them behind one integration and one set of rules.
Several providers
04
SaaS & subscriptions
Customers pay with cards from many banks and countries. Rules by card type, BIN and issuing bank decide which provider charges which card.
Rules per card
05
Travel & mobility
Bookings come in different currencies and payment methods. A rule per currency sends each one to the provider that handles it.
Cross-border
06
Digital platforms
Platforms accept payments, send payouts and issue invoices. P26M keeps all three in one dashboard.
Payments, payouts, invoices
What the platform does
Four things P26M does for your payments.
Routing you control, a retry on decline, one integration and a fast start with connected providers.
Routing rules you set
Send payments to chosen providers or block them by currency, payment method, card brand, card type, country or BIN, issuing bank, amount, operation type or schedule. Test a rule in the simulator before it goes live. Among matching providers, P26M picks the one with the lowest rate.
One retry on decline
If a provider declines a payment your server sent through the API, P26M tries once more through another provider on your account. This does not yet cover the hosted payment page or provider timeouts.
One integration
Integrate the P26M API once. Each provider you add later is a setting on your account, not new code in your product.
Connected providers in 1–3 days
For a provider marked Connected, you sign the contract and we switch it on in 1–3 days. For a provider marked On request, we agree the timeline on the call.
One dashboard
Every provider in one merchant dashboard.
The P26M dashboard is where you see and manage payments from all your providers.
All payments in one list
from every provider on your account
Payouts
send money out from the same place
Invoices
create and track them next to payments
Google Pay

Routing rules
you write them yourself and test them in the simulator
Step-by-step setup
the dashboard walks you through connecting your account
Two ways to pay. Pay 0.1% of successful payment volume with no subscription, or pick a monthly plan with included transactions and a fee for each transaction above the limit. Every plan includes all supported providers, routing rules and one dashboard.
Volume-based pricing
Based
Recommended
0.1%of successful payment volume
No subscription. No minimum commitment. Pay only for successful payments.
No. P26M sits above your providers. You keep the contracts you already have and add new ones when you need them. Adding a provider is a setting on your P26M account, not new code in your product.
How long does it take to connect a provider?
It depends on the status. A Connected provider takes 1–3 days once your contract with it is signed. For an On request provider, P26M first builds the integration, and we agree the timeline on the call.
What happens when a provider declines or goes down?
For payments your server sends through the API, P26M makes one retry through another provider on your account after a decline. On the P26M hosted payment page there is no retry yet. If a provider times out, that payment is not retried. When choosing a provider for new payments, P26M leaves out providers in poor health.
Who holds the money?
Your provider. Money goes from the provider straight to your account under your contract with it. P26M does not hold your funds.
Do we ever touch card data?
No. Card data is tokenized and never reaches your systems — you work with tokens, we handle the cardholder data environment.
Are you PCI DSS certified?
Not yet. The platform is built to PCI DSS v4.0.1 requirements — cardholder data storage, tokenization, network segmentation and all provider integrations are in scope — and the formal QSA assessment is under way. SOC 2 Type II is in progress, ISO 27001 is planned.
Where is our data hosted?
In the EU. All infrastructure runs in AWS eu-central-1 (Frankfurt), with no processing or storage of personal data outside the EEA. P26M is EU-incorporated and GDPR aligned.
How does pricing work?
Two options. Pay 0.1% of successful payment volume with no subscription, or a monthly plan with included transactions and a fee for each transaction above the limit. Failed and declined payments are not counted. Every plan includes all supported providers, routing rules and one dashboard.
Can we test before going live?
Yes. Your account has a sandbox environment for test payments and a production environment for real ones.
