Managed EMV Certification

Hand off the L3 process. Keep your engineers on what matters.

Managed certification is the option for teams that want to ship a payment product, not run a certification project. We handle the entire EMV Level 3 process — testing, processor coordination, card brand submission, findings management — without ever touching your codebase.

01 · Why managed certification

Four reasons teams hand this work to us.

Managed certification isn't about doing the same work cheaper. It's about taking a process that wrecks engineering roadmaps and turning it into something that runs in the background while your team ships features.

speed

Speed without compromise

Our managed process cuts certification timelines by up to 70% versus the traditional path — by owning the bottlenecks: test tools, processor relationships, card brand submission cycles.

code_off

Your code stays your code

We never touch your codebase. You keep your IP, your architecture, and your engineering autonomy. We hand back a certified result — not a fork of your application.

savings

Half the cost, structurally

Typically around 50% below traditional vendor pricing. No tool rentals to pass through, no per-hour clock running. Fixed-scope SOWs, milestone-based billing.

verified

Proven across 40+ projects

Backed by direct relationships with Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover. A 97% first-pass success rate means approval on the first try.

02 · Technical excellence

A managed process built for throughput.

Every part of the pipeline is engineered for repeat efficiency. Pre-configured test cases, automation across phases, owned tooling, and processor APIs that drop straight in.

03 · A growth-first solution

Compliance, turned into competitive advantage.

EMV certification doesn't have to be the thing that delays your roadmap, blows your quarter, or kills a partnership deal. Managed certification turns it into infrastructure — predictable, fast, off your team's plate.

lightbulb

Stay focused on the product

Pull your engineers off feature work to wrestle with EMV findings and you pay twice. Managed certification keeps them on what only they can do.

rocket_launch

Ship to market faster

Shorter certification timelines mean shorter time-to-revenue. Certify in months instead of years and compete in deals early.
