Core Technical Capabilities
Our ZK-Rollup Privacy Payment Gateway is built on a foundation of battle-tested cryptography and infrastructure designed for high-volume, secure transactions. We deliver the technical depth your CTO demands with the operational simplicity your business needs.
Enterprise-Grade Rollup Infrastructure
Dedicated, horizontally-scalable sequencer and prover nodes. We manage the full stack—from mempool ordering to state commitment—ensuring 99.9% uptime SLA and handling over 10,000 TPS off-chain.
Multi-Chain Settlement & Liquidity
Settle privately on Ethereum, Arbitrum, or Polygon via canonical bridges. Our gateway manages cross-chain liquidity pools, enabling seamless private payments across major L2 ecosystems.
Developer SDK & APIs
Comprehensive TypeScript/Go SDKs and REST APIs for easy integration. Includes wallet abstraction, transaction batching, and real-time status monitoring, reducing integration time to under 2 weeks.
Business Outcomes for Your Payment Platform
Our ZK-Rollup Privacy Payment Gateway delivers measurable advantages that directly impact your bottom line and competitive position.
Regulatory Compliance by Design
Built-in transaction privacy with selective disclosure for audits. Our architecture integrates with KYC/AML providers, ensuring you meet FinCEN, FATF Travel Rule, and MiCA standards without sacrificing user experience.
Sub-Cent Transaction Costs
Batch thousands of private payments into a single L1 settlement. Drastically reduce gas fees for your users, enabling microtransactions and new business models previously cost-prohibitive on Ethereum mainnet.
Bank-Grade Settlement Finality
ZK-proofs provide cryptographic certainty in seconds, not days. Eliminate chargeback risk and settlement delays, giving you and your users instant, irreversible confirmation for high-value transactions.
Scalable Enterprise Throughput
Process over 2,000 private transactions per second (TPS) on a dedicated rollup. Handle Black Friday-level volume spikes without network congestion or degraded performance for your users.
Reduced Operational Overhead
We manage the entire ZK-Rollup stack—provers, sequencers, and bridge security. Your team focuses on product, not infrastructure maintenance, cutting DevOps costs and complexity.
Faster Time-to-Market
Deploy a production-ready, audited privacy payment gateway in weeks, not years. Leverage our pre-built modules for wallets, fiat on/off ramps, and multi-chain liquidity bridges.

Our Delivery Process: From Audit to Mainnet
A structured, security-first approach to deliver a production-ready ZK-Rollup payment gateway. We manage the full lifecycle, ensuring compliance, performance, and seamless integration with your existing systems.
Architecture & Smart Contract Audit
We conduct a comprehensive security audit of your existing payment logic and design a custom ZK-Rollup architecture. This includes threat modeling, gas optimization analysis, and finalizing the on-chain/off-chain data flow.
ZK-Circuit Development & Proving
Our cryptographers implement custom zk-SNARK/STARK circuits for your payment privacy rules. We develop the prover/verifier logic and optimize for proof generation speed, a critical factor for user experience.
Sequencer & Node Infrastructure
We deploy a high-availability sequencer node to batch transactions and a full node network for data availability. Infrastructure is built with multi-cloud redundancy and automated failover protocols.
Gateway SDK & API Integration
We deliver a lightweight SDK and REST/WebSocket APIs for your frontend and backend. Includes modules for deposit/withdrawal, transaction status, and real-time balance checks, with full documentation.
Testnet Deployment & Stress Testing
Full deployment to a public testnet (e.g., Sepolia, Holesky) for integration testing. We execute load tests simulating peak transaction volumes and conduct a closed beta with select users.
Mainnet Launch & Monitoring
Managed mainnet deployment with phased roll-out. We provide 24/7 monitoring dashboards for sequencer health, proof costs, and transaction success rates, with ongoing support.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on development timelines, security, and integration for your private payment solution.
A standard deployment takes 4-8 weeks from kickoff to mainnet launch. This includes 2 weeks for architecture design and smart contract development, 2-3 weeks for core gateway and zk-circuit implementation, 1 week for internal security review, and 1-2 weeks for integration testing and deployment. Complex requirements like multi-chain support or custom compliance logic can extend the timeline, which we scope and agree upon upfront.
