Hosted checkout
Create a payment without touching card data. We host the form — your theme, four languages, light and dark, mobile first — and hand the payer back to you with a result.

Payments,
engineered end to end.
PayVan is a payment platform built from scratch — hosted checkout, card acquiring with 3-D Secure 2, payouts, recurring and smart routing. One signed API, one dashboard, and one very stubborn rule: we never report an outcome the bank hasn't confirmed.
- v3one API contract, no legacy branches
- 4checkout languages out of the box
- 0card data on your servers

The platform
Everything a payment needs, in one place
No stitching together a gateway, a 3-DS vendor, a payout provider and a reporting tool. PayVan is one contour: the checkout, the processing core, the routing, the ledger and the dashboard were designed together.
3-D Secure 2
The whole flow lives on our side: frictionless and challenge, every challenge screen shape, browser and merchant-initiated flows. The outcome of a challenge doesn't depend on whether the browser made it back.
Card acquiring
Single payments, blocks and captures, partial refunds, cancellations, status by transaction, order or date. Every mutation is idempotent and replay-safe.
Payouts
Push money out to cards and accounts, with a live payout balance and topping-up you can watch. A payout never gets a terminal status until the bank actually says what happened.
Recurring & rebills
Subscriptions, scheduled charges, plan changes, search and unsubscribe — driven by the same API and visible in the dashboard, not hidden in a cron job.
Payment links
An invoice page in one request: fixed or free amount, the payer fields you need, a code you can send anywhere. Revoke it, track what it collected, reuse it.
Smart routing
Many acquirers behind one contract. Route by BIN, currency, country, cost or provider health, and move traffic without shipping code on your side.
Merchant dashboard
Operations, balances, reports, payment links, your team and their roles. Configuration lives in one place and reaches processing over a bus, not by editing a database by hand.
Webhooks that arrive
Signed, ordered, retried with backoff, and replayable from the dashboard when your endpoint was having a bad afternoon.
One integration
Integrate once.
Change rails whenever you like.
Acquirers come and go, terms change, a provider has a bad week. That is our problem, not your release cycle. You keep talking to one API contract while traffic moves underneath it.
- Provider adapters behind a single internal contract
- Per-merchant rules: BIN, currency, country, amount, method
- Failover when a provider degrades, with the decision recorded
- Cost and conversion visible per route, not per invoice

For developers
An API you can read in an afternoon
REST over JSON, HMAC-SHA256 on every request, a request id that makes retries safe, and a sandbox with a real emulated bank — including a full 3-D Secure 2 flow you can drive from tests.

}Idempotent by default
Repeat a request with the same X-REQUEST-ID and you get the first answer back — not a second charge.
One contract
No v2 / v2.5 / v3 maze. There is one version of the API and it is the one in the docs.
A sandbox that lies to no one
An emulated bank with configurable declines, timeouts and full 3-D Secure 2 — so your error paths get tested too.
Security
Card data stays where it belongs
Our checkout captures the card in isolated fields served from our own card domain. Six inputs are inside the card perimeter — not your page, not your servers, not your logs.
- Hosted card fields on a dedicated, minimal-surface origin
- PAN masked in every log line the platform writes
- HMAC-SHA256 request signing, replay-safe request ids
- Money state changes only through audited stored procedures
- One trace id from the API call to the bank's response
- Everything in UTC, everywhere, with no local-time surprises
Invariants we refuse to break
No guessed outcomes
If the bank hasn't told us what happened, the operation stays RESULT_UNKNOWN until it does. We would rather show you an unfinished payment than a wrong one.
Durable by construction
Every operation is a workflow that survives restarts and retries only what is safe to retry. Deploys don't lose payments.
Everything is reconstructable
Each state transition is recorded with who, when and why. Support answers questions from the record, not from a guess.
Where we are
Honest roadmap
PayVan isn't live yet — and we would rather say so than dress a prototype up as a bank. Here is exactly what stands today.
-
Running
The processing contour
Gateway, transaction core, hosted checkout, webhooks and an emulated bank with a complete 3-D Secure 2 flow — all working end to end in our test environment.
-
In build
Dashboard, payouts, reports
Merchant cabinet with roles and reports, payment links, payout balance and top-ups, routing configuration delivered to processing over the bus.

Compliance and live rails
PCI DSS assessment of the card perimeter, first acquiring contracts, and production traffic on payvan.net.
