What AI Payments is
AI Payments is a global acquiring and payment orchestration platform for merchants, built around one API that connects payment processors, gateways, and acquirers. Its machine learning models assess transactions in real time and select a processor based on predicted authorization and cost. The routing engine considers more than 120 signals, including card BIN, merchant category, currency, geography, issuer behavior, and processor health. The API brings together routing, retries, failover, tokenization, and consolidated reporting. Other capabilities include decline recapture, dynamic currency conversion at the point of sale, and data enrichment for qualifying Level II and Level III transactions. Least cost debit routing supports PIN and PINless payments and logs eligible network options for Durbin Amendment documentation. AI Payments says routing card data through its platform can reduce a merchant’s PCI compliance scope; it does not claim PCI certification. Its privacy policy describes encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, and regular security assessments. The site lists 24/7 agentic support. Pricing is available on request.
