Cloud Native Processor

    The most modern cloud-native
    processing core in LATAM.

    Deployed on AWS with active-active architecture, auto-scaling, 99.999% guaranteed uptime and PCI DSS 4.0. The processor your acquiring operation needs.

    The problem

    Legacy processors can no longer keep up

    Decades-old mainframes, manual scaling and impossible compliance. The market demands modern processing infrastructure.

    Legacy on-premise infrastructure

    Legacy processors run on decades-old mainframes. Every update is a months-long project, every failure an existential risk.

    Manual and costly scaling

    Traffic peaks like Black Friday or end-of-month require manual capacity planning. Over-provisioning costs millions, under-provisioning loses transactions.

    Insufficient uptime for the market

    Legacy systems can't achieve the 99.999% demanded by modern regulations and high-volume merchants. Every minute of downtime is direct loss.

    Meeting PCI DSS 4.0 on legacy

    The new PCI DSS 4.0 requirements are nearly impossible to implement on legacy architectures without a complete stack rewrite.

    The solution

    World-class cloud-native processing

    Akua Cloud Native Processor is LATAM's most modern processing core, designed from scratch for cloud with AWS.

    Native AWS deployment

    The processor runs in your AWS account with active-active architecture across multiple availability zones. Maximum control over your data.

      Automatic traffic-based scaling

      Intelligent auto-scaling that adjusts capacity in real time. No more over-provisioning or panic during traffic spikes.

        99.999% contractual uptime SLA

        Architecture designed for five-nines availability with automatic failover, zero-downtime deployments and included disaster recovery.

          PCI DSS 4.0 certified

          PCI DSS 4.0 compliance from the architecture. Network segmentation, end-to-end encryption and automated continuous auditing.

            ISO 8583 + modern REST APIs

            Connect to payment networks via native ISO 8583 while exposing modern REST APIs for your merchants and partners.

              Monitoring and observability

              Real-time dashboards, intelligent alerts, distributed tracing and centralized logging — total visibility of your processing.
