Munich, Bayern ( prsafe ) July 25, 2012 - PAY.ON AG, operator of the PayPipe routing gateway, reduces the period for integrating commissioned software developments into the PayPipe system from five weeks to only seven days. Consequently, required special functions will now be available to customers considerably faster. PayPipe offers clients the opportunity to automatically integrate their payment system with systems of several hundred payment providers and more than 100 international payment method providers via one single interface. The result is a significant technical simplification of the global handling of transactions, which is accompanied by considerable savings in terms of costs.

Greater flexibility, time-efficient realisation, improved service orientation, faster return on investment - those are the customer advantages that PAY.ON is now offering with the introduction of the shorter release interval. Smaller, commissioned developments such as address verification, 3D-Secure and the processing of airline passenger data are now available almost immediately in the respective customer system. Larger projects benefit because partial results are ready for checking after shorter time. Plausibility checks and test runs can therefore start at short notice. PayPipe customers include leading payment service providers, acquirers, payment scheme operators and financial institutions in Europe, USA and Asia.

The reduced release interval time is based on process optimisation in software development, which is consistently driven forward by PAY.ON and its integration into the PayPipe system. As a long-established process management system, Kanban ensures software development support in forms of rapid throughput and response times (cycle times). 'With the new release interval, we are setting an industry standard for continuous delivery (continuous integration, distribution and delivery of software),' says Wolfgang Berner, vice-president of product and integration at PAY.ON AG. 'The quality of our development is ensured by more than 10,000 fully automated tests in a multilevel test system with automated software distribution and installation. Extremely close system monitoring then checks all operating sequences at all processing and integration levels. Availability and functionality of the customer system is thus comprehensively ensured at all times. With PAY.ON, customers secure maximum reliability and quality in the development of special requirements as well as in live operation.'
