About the company
This digital payments company operates in the highly regulated DACH market, offering end-to-end payment processing solutions. Their mission: provide secure, seamless, and transparent payment flows backed by full regulatory compliance and real-time operational intelligence.
Project Overview
The Digital Payments Company partnered with us to develop a real-time payments dashboard to unify transaction visibility, streamline anomaly detection, and support compliance-driven workflows.
The system required stream-based tracking of transactions, a dynamic alert engine, role-based access control, and exportable audit reports — all within a scalable, secure architecture.
Using our agile delivery model, we assembled a lean, cross-functional team to ship fast and adapt as the client’s needs evolved.
The platform now provides 100% visibility into live payment flows, enabling both operational agility and regulatory confidence. Compliance teams can instantly export reports, while alerts help teams resolve anomalies 4x faster — all in real-time.
Challenges and Pains
Lack of Real-Time Transaction Visibility
The client struggled with fragmented systems that provided no single, unified view of live transactions — causing delays and confusion across operations and compliance.
Manual Reporting Bottlenecks
Generating compliance reports took up to two days, heavily reliant on manual processes and outdated data sources — putting regulatory timelines at risk.
No Proactive Anomaly Detection
There was no system in place to detect and alert teams about transaction anomalies in real time, leading to slower incident response and operational blind spots.
Scaling with Compliance and Security in Mind
As a regulated entity in the DACH region, the company needed a solution that could scale without compromising security, auditability, or regulatory alignment.
Solution
To solve the client’s challenges, we assembled a dedicated, cross-functional team ready to move fast and build with precision. The team included 2 Backend Engineers, 1 Frontend Engineer, 1 Data Engineer, 1 QA, and a Delivery Manager.
- Real-Time Architecture: We implemented a stream-based dashboard using Kafka to deliver live transaction visibility, backed by a scalable Node.js + React stack.
- Proactive Alerts: A dynamic alert engine was developed to detect and notify teams of anomalies instantly — reducing response time by 4x.
- Compliance-Ready Reporting: Exportable audit reports and role-based workflows ensured the platform aligned with regulatory needs without slowing operations.
- Full Operational Support: Our team handled everything from development to QA and delivery management, allowing the client to stay focused on scaling their payment services.
