Payment Processing Platform That Builds Payment Programmes Without Technical Complexity
Stop Losing Revenue to Payment Processing Limitations Most ISVs and SaaS companies don't realise they're leaving significant revenue on the table by relying on third-party payment processors. Every transaction processed through external providers means lost margin, reduced control, and missed opportunities for customer retention. PayFacLite® changes this dynamic entirely. Our payment processing platform** enables UK-based businesses to become payment facilitators, taking control of their entire payment ecosystem whilst maintaining compliance and reducing technical complexity. Trusted by over businesses across the UK across the UK, PayFacLite® processes monthly through our FCA-regulated infrastructure. From fintech startups to established SaaS platforms, businesses choose our platform because it transforms payment processing from a cost centre into a revenue driver.
The Hidden Costs of Payment Dependency
Every month you operate without your own payment programme, you're losing more than just processing fees. You're losing strategic control over your customer relationships, missing revenue opportunities, and limiting your ability to innovate around payments. Consider the mathematics: if you're processing 500,000 pounds monthly through external providers at typical rates, you could be retaining an additional 8,000 pounds- in margin alone by operating your own payment facilitation programme. That doesn't account for:
- Enhanced customer data ownership
- Reduced churn through improved payment experiences
- Ability to offer payment-adjacent services
- Complete control over settlement timing The switching cost grows exponentially as your transaction volume increases. What costs you 10,000 pounds monthly at 1 pounds million in processing becomes a 50,000 pounds monthly opportunity cost at 5 pounds million.The longer you wait, the more expensive inaction becomes.**
