BR-DGE vs MoneyHash

BR-DGE is a payment orchestration platform that connects businesses with payment services through a single API. Its modular services include Integrate, Connect, Optimise, Vault, Insights and White Label. Optimise lets businesses build payment workflows and route transactions by rules such as currency, value or provider priority; automatic retries are supported. Insights provides live reports on payment successes and failures, performance, acquiring rates and volumes. Vault offers centralised PCI-compliant tokenisation, including a universal token merchants can use to direct card payments to different providers. The company says the platform has more than 400 connections across payment providers, fraud tools and alternative payment methods. Integration choices include a hosted payment page, web, Android or iOS SDKs, and a REST API. BR-DGE describes itself as a PCI Level 1 certified service provider with a SOC 2 Type 2 attestation, both renewed annually, and says its multi-cloud, multi-region architecture can switch servers automatically. It is based in Edinburgh and was founded in 2018. Pricing is on request.

MoneyHash provides payment infrastructure and orchestration for businesses in emerging markets, with a stated focus on Africa and the Middle East. Its unified API connects businesses to payment providers and methods, while provider setup is managed through a dashboard. Programmable routing rules can direct transactions across providers, and the platform supports retries and provider failover. The dashboard shows transactions, revenue, refunds, and channel performance. Its products include pay-in and payout integrations, alternative payment methods, recurring payments, a tokenization vault, payment links, virtual wallets, subscriptions, and digital invoices. Checkout options include hosted pages, web embeds, mobile SDKs, and direct API integration. The pay-in integration page describes connections to 300+ providers across 100+ markets, including cards, wallets, BNPL, and open banking. Developer resources include documentation, guides, SDKs for JavaScript, iOS, Android, Flutter, and React Native, and troubleshooting support. The company says its team can assist with technical integration, infrastructure, and payment strategy. Direct API integration requires PCI DSS Level 1 certification, and merchants are responsible for collecting, handling, and transmitting cardholder data. Pricing is available on request.
