Subheadline: Five-year partnership enables flexible routing, fast integrations, and uplift in approval rates while relieving pressure on Anakatech’s development team.
Anakatech is a multi-brand gaming platform that operates its own PCI DSS Level 1 cashier. Over more than five years of collaboration, Payneteasy’s orchestration has become the central layer powering payments across Anakatech’s brands. The company initially turned to Payneteasy to solve a core challenge: run payments at scale without consuming the development capacity needed for product work. Payneteasy’s role in the partnership is to provide:
- Flexible routing based on Anakatech’s risk appetite and business rules
- Fast activation of new payment integrations
- A significant reduction in integration-related workload for the development team
From the “plug and play” myth to ongoing operations
At Anakatech’s scale, payments are no longer a one time project. Once a method goes live, it must be kept up to date, updated regularly, and continuously fixed as issues appear in real world processing. At the same time, the business needs to roll out new providers and methods without exhausting engineering capacity. Instead of investing more internal resources into maintaining an ever growing list of direct connections, Anakatech chose to rely on an external platform that offers flexible configuration and centralized control over traffic and risk. Payneteasy’s orchestration layer became that control point.
Freeing developers to focus on product
By offloading the integration and maintenance layer to Payneteasy, Anakatech’s development team could shift focus to:
- Website performance
- CRM improvements
- Product and UX optimisation
This change reduced urgent PSP integration work and helped support long-term growth across Anakatech’s brands.
“We run our own cashier and hold PCI DSS Level 1, so the merchant side was never our bottleneck — integration throughput was. With Payneteasy orchestration, a ready integration is a switch we flip when the business needs it, not a multi-week project. Our team got its capacity back for the work only we can do.” — Jeff Letlat, COO at Anakatech Group.
Keeping up with a weekly-changing payment stack
For platforms facing the “two-front war” of maintaining what’s in production while building what’s next, Anakatech’s experience with Payneteasy shows what happens when integration stops being a bottleneck and becomes a backbone.
