Choosing digital banking software? Compare both
Solaris provides embedded banking through APIs under its own banking licence in Europe, so partners can offer accounts and cards without holding a licence themselves. SecurePaymentz is a banking platform you design online first — pick the modules, brand it, connect the rails, and our engineers build, host and run it with you. Here is an honest side-by-side.

Design it online, we build and run it
Best for operators who want a modern platform, real rails and a team behind it.
- Design your platform in the browser before you commit — brand, modules, screens
- Accounts, transfers, cards, merchant APIs and prepaid programs as modules
- Connections directory: banks, PSPs, card issuers and merchant APIs by country
- Managed hosting, updates and monitoring — no server team required
- Dedicated implementation engineer and support tickets inside your dashboard
- Custom quote based on your volume, rails and compliance scope
Licensed embedded finance via APIs
Best for European brands that want banking services under a partner licence.
- Banking-as-a-service under Solaris' own European licence
- Accounts, cards and payments consumed through APIs
- You build the entire customer-facing product yourself
- Regulatory perimeter and onboarding controlled by the provider
- Primarily European market coverage
- Revenue-share and per-transaction commercials

When Solaris is the better choice
We would rather you pick right than pick us. Consider Solaris if you need a European banking licence to sit behind your product and you have a team to build the whole front end and operations tooling.
When SecurePaymentz fits better
Choose SecurePaymentz if you want to see and shape the platform before you spend, you need banks, merchant APIs and card programs connected for you, and you would rather have a team that builds, hosts and keeps it running than hire one. You describe the platform, we deliver it.
Questions people ask us
Are you affiliated with Solaris?
No. Solaris is an independent product of its owner and all trademarks belong to them. This page is our own comparison, based on publicly available information, to help you evaluate options.
Can I migrate from Solaris or another platform?
Yes. We regularly take over from an existing platform: we map accounts, balances, users and history, run both systems in parallel, then cut over.
How much does SecurePaymentz cost?
Pricing depends on the modules, rails and compliance scope you need. Design your platform online, request a quote, and our team prices the setup and monthly fee for you.
How fast can we launch?
Timelines depend on your licences and banking partners. Once rails are agreed, a branded platform with accounts, transfers and cards typically moves in weeks, not quarters.
