Build or white label?
Building your own gateway means acquirer integrations, scheme certification, PCI DSS compliance, fraud tooling and a team to run it all. Budgets regularly pass £500k and timelines stretch beyond a year.
A white label gateway gives you proven infrastructure under your own brand, so you can go live in days rather than months.
What to check before choosing
Look at connected acquirers and local payment methods, routing and cascading, settlement speed, reporting and merchant onboarding tools.
Ask about pricing too. The best models charge nothing upfront and only earn when you process.
Who it suits
Fintech startups, ISOs, agents and platforms that want their own payments brand without the engineering and compliance overhead.
