Key Components Of Hyperswitch

1. Hyperswitch Backend:
   The backend facilitates seamless payment processing by supporting various flows such as authorization, authentication, refunds, and chargebacks.
   • It integrates with external fraud risk management (FRM) or authentication providers and optimizes routing with features like success rate-based routing and intelligent retries for failed payments.
2. SDK (Frontend):
   Available for web, Android, and iOS, the SDK unifies the payment experience across methods like cards, wallets, BNPL, and bank transfers. It also supports saved payment methods for a streamlined user experience.
3. Control Center:
   This no-code interface allows businesses to manage workflows, routing rules, retries, and integrations with fraud detection systems. It provides detailed analytics, transaction logs, and insights to enhance payment performance.

• Modular Design: Businesses can integrate only the required components like intelligent routing, cost observability, or reconciliation without overhauling their existing stack.
• Open Source: Hyperswitch ensures transparency and flexibility by allowing merchants to customize their payment systems without vendor lock-in.
• Scalability and Reliability: Built to handle up to 5K transactions per second (TPS), it ensures zero downtime with multi-region support.
• Enhanced Observability: Offers deep transaction insights through logging and monitoring tools.
• Local Setup: Developers can set up Hyperswitch locally using Docker Compose.
• Cloud Deployment: Quick deployment on AWS via CDK scripts or Helm charts for GCP and Azure.
