What’s new in Solidgate Payment Routing 2.0?

From decision trees to rule-based routing

We’ve shifted from decision trees to a rule-based system, allowing you to define complex payment flows using simple rules. You can now manage routing logic more easily, adapting it to your needs based on custom attributes like:

• Geography
• BIN
• Issuer 
• Card brand
• Currency
• Transaction value
• Risk score
• Payment method
• Metadata

The setup is now cleaner and more intuitive, allowing you to focus on business outcomes instead of getting caught in technicalities.

Full routing self-service through HUB

Now, you have complete control over your payment routing through the redesigned HUB admin panel:

✓ Guided workflows help you configure routing with ease.

✓ The intuitive UI speeds up the process, making setup simpler and faster.

✓ No more back-and-forth with tech support – you can deploy new routing rules instantly.

Simplified configuration management

We’ve made configuration management transparent and straightforward. 

✓ Versioning lets you keep track of every historical change to your routing.

✓ Easily activate or deactivate configurations as needed.

✓ Export options provide flexibility and control, letting you take your settings with you.

Smarter traffic distribution & failover

Your payment routes are optimized at all times by allowing you to split traffic across multiple connectors. This means:

✓ Optimized conversion rates thanks to tailored payment routing optimization strategies.

✓ Fallback mechanisms ensure your payments are always processed, even if a provider fails.

✓ Granular control lets you decide how specific features are applied per connector: toggle 3DS or AVS, select between card or network token, or choose the payment descriptor that best fits your brand.

End-to-end transaction visibility 

Every transaction is logged with the exact route it followed. This allows you to troubleshoot quickly, monitor performance in real time, and optimize routes based on actionable payment routing data.
