Kabira's payment switch capabilities

The Kabira Financial Payment Switch (KFPS) is a next-generation acquiring and switching system for processors and issuers of electronic payment transactions. KFPS enables payment institutions to reduce their time to market in rolling out new payment services and lowers the cost of acquiring and switching payment transactions. Designed for diverse enterprise payment processing installations, the Kabira Financial Payment Switch combines transaction delivery, network integration and settlement support capabilities with extension points for integrating modern payment applications in a high performance, secure manner. Moreover, KFPS provides one of the best transaction processing speeds in the industry, topping 2000 transactions per second on a single "open system" server. KFPS is also designed to enable ready creation and management of network interfaces and possesses an extremely high-speed communication framework for interfacing with external systems. This level of "extreme transaction processing" not only handles peak-plus volumes with ease but also provides enough headroom for future growth. Because of this, KFPS is well suited for payment institutions planning to rollout new payment products such as prepaid, or bring card processing in-house.
