Aurora Payments launches ARISE, a one-stop payment platform for SMBs

By Gloria Mathias

Aurora Payments, a full-service payment solutions provider, has introduced the ARISE Payment Platform, a cloud-based, payment-agnostic modern payment system designed specifically for SMBs (Small and Medium-sized Businesses).

The ARISE Payment Platform works in tandem with the ARISE Payment Terminal in a card-present environment or standalone mode in a card-not-present environment. Designed as a one-stop payment hub, ARISE is an easy-to-use, powerful payment solution for SMBs, a category long underserved by the payments industry.

The ARISE Payment Platform comes with seamless APIs that enable Integrated Software Vendor (ISV) application developers to integrate their vertical software directly into the ARISE platform. All ARISE features and capabilities are available via these APIs and come ‘integration ready’, including onboarding, processing, and support, allowing ISVs to create a seamless payment ecosystem and offer access to the ARISE Payment Platform as a value-added service to their customers.

“ARISE is more than a payment service — it’s an all-encompassing financial ecosystem for SMBs that manages all aspects of the payment lifecycle, ensures secure transactions and offers real-time reporting,” said Aurora Payments CEO and founder Brian Goudie. “Our portfolio of over 27,000 merchants has taught us that small businesses need a solution that makes it easy to accept payment from virtually any source. ARISE achieves this while giving merchants unparalleled oversight of their finances; merchants can receive their ARISE Smart Terminal, be up and running, and accept payments in minutes.

The ARISE Payment Platform features and benefits include:

• Same-day Onboarding
• Fast and Easy Set-up
• Zero-Cost Processing
• Payment-Agnostic
• Real-Time Data
• Convenience and Reliability
• Secure and Certified
