Hyperswitch is an open-source payments platform from Juspay, designed to simplify global payments for digital businesses. Juspay has been a global leader offering payment infrastructure solution for banks and merchants for 12+ years, processing over 175 million daily transactions and an annualized total payment value of $670 billion.
| An end-to-end orchestration layer that unifies payments across providers, networks, and channels. It enables seamless checkout, dynamic routing, and redundancy for reliability. | Optimize payments at scale without adding complexity to your infrastructure. | ||
| A flexible, modular approach to integrate only the payment capabilities you need. Choose from intelligent routing, vault, reconciliation, cost observability, smart retries, and APM widgets. | Enhance performance without overhauling your existing payment stack. |
At Juspay, we believe that payments infrastructure should be transparent, adaptable, and built for merchant control—not vendor lock-in. That’s why we made the bold decision to take our Payment Orchestrator open source.
Enterprise merchants operate in a world where payment agility is a competitive advantage. Traditional closed-loop platforms dictate their own rules, pricing, and pace of innovation. Based on our 12-years of experience building and scaling global payment systems, we decided to take a different approach—giving merchants the power to customize, optimize, and scale payments to fit their unique business needs.
Since our 2024 enterprise go-lives (e.g. Flowbird), we have been working on unbundling a range of stand-alone solutions from our broader technology stack to make them more accessible to merchants looking to expand their in-house system engineering capability. These stand-alone solutions range from services for intelligent / dynamic payment routing, payment methods vaulting, cost observability, PSP-agnostic authentication, and an APMs widget that can be embedded anywhere.
HyperSwitch's technical architecture combines open source innovation with enterprise-grade reliability, built to power modern payment operations.
- Complete Transparency & Confidence: Full visibility into payment orchestration with no black boxes, enabling informed decision-making and customization
- Open Roadmap & Innovation: Collaborative development approach that allows merchants to influence and contribute to the platform's evolution
- Speed to Market: Accelerate implementation and changes by building consensus faster through transparent architecture
- Built on battle-tested systems by Juspay's 1000+ engineers, the same team that powers 175M+ transactions daily for enterprises like Amazon, Agoda and Zurich
- Comprehensive security framework including PCI compliance, tokenization, and security certifications
- Proven reliability at scale, designed for high-performance payment processing
It is built on the principles of - Modular, Composable, Well Architected
- Sub-systems: To orchestrate a unified checkout, payment methods and credentials (tokens, PANs), trust providers, dynamic routing - across PSPs & acquirers, and debit networks, designed for redundancy & reliability, state-of-the-art transaction level payments intelligence to increase conversions and reduce costs, and to unify payment operations - observability, optimizations, reconciliation.
- Modular: Pick only the components you need—intelligent routing, vault, reconciliation, cost observability, smart retries, APM widgets—without overhauling your stack.
- Scalable: Ability to handle peakings transactions up to 5K TPS (horizontal scaling)
- Reliable: Ensuring zero downtime and safe mode for handling exceptions (with retries, multi-region, Active-active)
- Observable: Providing deep insights into transactions and failures (logging, monitoring, tracing, drill downs, audits, optimizations - auth-lift and cost reduction)
- Composable: Easily integrate Hyperswitch into any existing payments infrastructure, reducing migration friction.
- Future-proof: Swap out or upgrade internal systems and providers without rebuilding from scratch—a level of flexibility closed platforms can’t match.
Get ready! We welcome you to the future of digital payments!
