Acquiring with no one in between.
Direct acquiring for Visa, Mastercard and more, with no middlemen sitting between you and the card networks.
One relationship, one settlement, one place to see every authorisation and decline.
What it does
Direct relationships
Authorisations go straight to Visa, Mastercard and more on our own acquiring licences, with no reseller in the path.
Network tokens
Card credentials are replaced with network tokens that survive expiry and reissue, so saved cards keep approving.
Issuer-side approval
Acquirer data, AVS and 3-D Secure signals are sent to the issuing bank in the form it scores highest.
Multi-currency
Acquire in 25+ settlement currencies so customers are charged and you are paid in the currency that suits each market.
One settlement
Card volume across regions consolidates into one balance with line-level reporting per transaction.
Interchange clarity
Every authorisation breaks down into interchange, scheme fees and our margin, with nothing buried in a blended rate.
How it works
- 01
Connect once
Point your existing card flow at one acquiring endpoint and route Visa and Mastercard volume through Prosperos.
- 02
Authorise direct
Each charge reaches the issuing bank over our acquiring licences, enriched with the data that lifts approval.
- 03
Settle as one
Captured volume across schemes and currencies settles into a single balance you reconcile from the dashboard.
Authorise a Visa charge directly on our acquiring licence.

Works with
- Payment GatewayOne integration that accepts cards, wallets and local payment methods, with the request, the redirect and the webhook all shaped the same way no matter how your customer chooses to pay.↗
- Payment ProcessingSmart routing, automatic retries and failover, built into the rails. When one path declines or stalls, the processor chooses another and tries again, without you writing a line of logic.↗
- 3-D SecureFrictionless 3-D Secure 2 that authenticates at the issuing bank and protects conversion, sending the cardholder data the issuer needs to approve without a challenge.↗
