How we work together
Engagement models
Three ways to consume our services depending on your internal capacity and desired level of control.
Advisory
Strategic guidance with deliverables you execute internally. Ideal when you have an ops team but need domain expertise for specific decisions — market entry feasibility, compliance gap analysis, architecture review.
Billed per engagement or as a monthly retainer with defined deliverable hours.
Managed service
We own the function end to end — tooling, staffing, SLAs and reporting. You get a named account lead and monthly performance reviews. Best for payment operations, infrastructure monitoring and compliance programs.
Fixed monthly fee with transparent SLA credits. Volume-based pricing available for payment services.
Embedded team
Our specialists join your workflows as an extension of your team — attending standups, committing to your repositories, operating within your governance. Suited to data engineering, infrastructure buildout and expansion projects.
Priced per FTE per month with a minimum three-month commitment. Offshore and onshore options available.
