- Integrating into a mature multi-processor interface framework
- Minimizing disruption to the existing codebase and system workflows
- Ensuring full end-to-end PCI compliance across all payment flows
- Architecting a modern solution that remained compatible with legacy systems
- Enabling future scalability without destabilizing existing infrastructure
- Platform Architecture: Java with Struts MVC
- Server Environment: Apache Tomcat
- Integration Layer: RESTful APIs for all Fortis transaction workflows, including tokenization, authorization, capture, refund, and receipts
- Security: Fortis JS SDK for front-end tokenization; all sensitive cardholder data routed directly to Fortis, keeping PMS backend out of PCI scope
- Component Design: Modular Java components interfacing with the PMS’s processor framework—built for maintainability and reuse
- Transaction Routing: Intelligent dispatch logic enabled support for both Fortis and legacy processors, maintaining operational continuity across properties
- Error Handling & Logging: Robust mechanisms for retry logic, failure capture, and transactional traceability for Fortis API calls
- Conducted deep analysis of legacy transaction flow and processor handling
- Designed and implemented an integration zone within the PMS for safe, isolated development
- Built compatibility layers to maintain support for legacy processors while introducing Fortis
- Automated deployment and testing pipelines to streamline QA and Fortis certification
- Rapid Delivery: Entire integration—design, development, testing, and Fortis certification—was completed in just 3 months, far outperforming industry averages.
- Superior Outcome: A comparable internal project to integrate Elevon had exceeded 11 months and remained incomplete.
- Improved Reliability: Xperity also identified and resolved legacy issues in the PMS’s existing processor integrations, improving overall transaction stability.
