Our Process for AI and Cognitive App Development

We start by mapping your payment flows, user roles, currency needs, and fraud risks. From there, we design the underlying architecture — including payment gateway integrations, secure APIs, and compliance infrastructure. Whether you’re developing a P2P payment app or a high-volume processing tool, we lay the technical foundation for scale and resilience.

Our agile development cycles allow rapid integration of payment APIs, testing of UI elements, and creation of real-time transaction logs. We build custom dashboards, enable webhook support, and provide sandbox environments for simulation. Every integration is stress-tested to ensure consistent performance and security under load.

AppsPlus conducts penetration testing, secure token validation, and encryption audits prior to deployment. We integrate anti-fraud systems including transaction scoring, IP analysis, and rate limiting. Our solutions are always launched with complete audit trails, GDPR compliance, and long-term maintenance options.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you integrate a payment gateway into an app? 

We integrate payment gateways using secure APIs, handle credential exchange, and develop UIs that enable seamless transactions. Our team conducts sandbox testing and manages live-to-test environment switches to ensure zero disruption during development.

What are the best payment gateways for mobile apps? 

We recommend payment gateways like Stripe, PayPal, Braintree, and Adyen based on your region, transaction volume, and operational needs. Each platform offers unique advantages in terms of fraud protection, fee structures, and currency support.

How secure is payment gateway integration? 

We apply AES encryption, TLS protocols, and tokenisation to secure transactions. Our apps use multi-factor authentication and comply with PCI-DSS to protect user data and transaction integrity.

What APIs support global or international payments? 

Stripe, Adyen, and PayPal offer multi-currency support, global bank access, and localisation tools for tax, language, and regional preferences. We ensure that all integrations align with international financial regulations.

How do you handle payment failures and retries? 

Our apps include intelligent retry systems, transaction polling, and fallback messages. We ensure that users are notified of failures and can seamlessly switch methods, while developers and merchants receive diagnostic logs.

What fraud prevention features are included? 

We implement tokenisation, CVV validation, geofencing, and velocity checks. Suspicious activity is flagged with options for automated rejection or manual review. Admins can also define custom fraud rules and thresholds.
