Real-Time Payment Gateway Processing 50K Transactions per Second

PayFlow Financial • Published 12 Mar 2026

PayFlow Financial, a leading payment processor serving banks across the UAE and Europe, was struggling with a legacy batch-processing system that could only handle 2,000 transactions per second. As their client base grew to include major retail chains and fintech platforms, they faced mounting pressure to deliver real-time payment processing at scale.

Kansoft assembled a dedicated team of 12 engineers to design and build a cloud-native payment processing engine from the ground up, featuring event-driven microservices on Kubernetes with Apache Kafka for message streaming.
