Its Dock One platform is intended to support operations across markets, with cloud-native architecture, one API integration point, and configuration by country, currency, and business model. Dock describes its architecture as modular and event-based. The core ledger handles multiple currencies and balances, customizable accounts, transaction rules, approval flows, and reports. Spending Control sets limits by merchant type, time, amount, and period, individually or in groups. Dock lists card issuing, digital accounts, acquiring, and fraud prevention among its services. Its white-label banking includes digital accounts, branded debit cards, Pix transfers, bill payments, and boleto payments. Acquiring supports in-person and online payment acceptance through options including POS, TEF, Pix, Tap On Phone, payment links, APIs, and Pix Checkout. Fraud tools include real-time transaction monitoring and communication by SMS, WhatsApp, and email. Dock says it is regulated by Brazil's Central Bank.

Paynetics Card Issuing provides configurable card programs for businesses and their partners. Its range includes physical, virtual, digitized prepaid, debit, credit, and business cards from Visa and Mastercard. Partners can customize card designs and configure rules, limits, controls, hierarchies, products, and pricing levels. Cards can be linked to dedicated IBAN accounts or integrated into an eWallet. The API platform supports digital onboarding and data exchange for compliance, risk analysis, and monitoring; its integration channel includes a REST API for accounts, issuing, transfers, and onboarding, plus a partner portal. Developer resources include APIs, SDKs, sandbox tools, and live operational status. Paynetics supports Apple Pay on iOS and an Android tokenisation solution based on Mastercard’s MDES protocol. A PCI-compliant SDK supports secure card-data display without partners storing or processing sensitive details. Physical card orders require at least 1,000 units, and manufacturing typically takes around two months. Pricing is on request.
