hyperswitch

hyperswitch is a Payment Switch that lets you connect with multiple payment processors with a single API integration. Once integrated, you can add new payment processors and route traffic effortlessly. Using hyperswitch, you can:

• Reduce dependency on a single processor like Stripe
• Control & customize your payment flow with 100% visibility
• Reduce processing fees through smart routing
• Improve conversion rate with dynamic routing
• Expand your business reach with new payment methods
• Reduce development & testing efforts of adding new processors

hyperswitch is wire-compatible with top processors like Stripe making it easy to integrate.

Our Belief

We believe payments should be open, fast and cheap.

hyperswitch would allow everyone to quickly customize and set up an open payment switch, while giving a unified experience to your users, abstracting away the ever shifting payments landscape.

The hyperswitch journey starts with a payment orchestrator. It was born from our struggle to understand and integrate various payment options/payment processors/networks and banks, with varying degrees of documentation and inconsistent API semantics.

Contributing

This project is created and currently maintained by Juspay.

We welcome contributions from the open source community. Please read through our contributing guidelines. Included are directions for opening issues, coding standards, and notes on development.

Important note for Rust developers: We aim for contributions from the community across a broad range of tracks. Hence, we have prioritized simplicity and code readability over purely idiomatic code. For example, some of the code in core functions (e.g. payments_core) is written to be more readable rather than being pure-idiomatic.
