Change your card scheme or processor, keep your system

LightCMS keeps your product logic separate from the card scheme and processor. Switch processors without rebuilding the system, and keep authorizing even when the connection to your core banking system drops.

  • Processor-independent

    Change the processor without rebuilding your card products.

  • Every card type

    Debit, credit, prepaid, benefit, fleet, membership, eWallets, tokens and crypto cards in one system.

  • Stand-In built in

    @Core Engine approves and declines on its own if core banking is unavailable.

LightCMS card ecosystem: the customer, the card issuer and card schemes (Mastercard, Visa, China UnionPay, JCB, Amex), with the LightCMS Platform modules Loyalty, Trancore, @Core Engine, RDS and CardMan connecting the core banking system and the card processor

Infrastructure built for card-scale volumes

LightCMS is a modular platform that gives you full control over your card ecosystem. It runs on infrastructure designed for availability and speed:

  • High availability: hosted across three independent data centers in a private cloud.

  • Stable connectivity: load-balanced network at telco level.

  • Proven performance: 250 TPS (transactions per second) measured on a single instance.

  • Fast processing: 6.33 ms average authorization decision time.
