IexPay Technology

International Express Payment System uses WebSphere Application Server technology that is a proven, high performance transaction engine to develop, run, integrate and manage dynamic business applications. It is built on an open standards-based infrastructure and utilizes the power of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and other new technologies, such as Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) to support its core business processes and integrate with customer payment systems for flexible scalability and greater market responsiveness. With these new technologies, the payment system provides the capability to make payments across banks for the users who don't have an account with IexPay.

Web Application Framework
