Policy Manager
Policy Manager is where your payment policy lives. Define decline rules, routing preferences, risk thresholds, retry rules, payment controls and agent guardrails as explicit, version-controlled policy, and every instruction the Decision API returns is evaluated against it.
Your policy, version-controlled
Policy is data, not code buried in your checkout. It is explicit, versioned, and enforced on every decision.
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about Policy Manager and how Payinference works.
In shadow mode Payinference returns decisions and records what it would have done while your existing logic keeps executing, so you can evaluate decision quality against real traffic with zero risk. In enforce mode your stack executes the returned instruction.
Orchestrators sit in your payment flow and execute transactions across providers. Payinference sits above the flow and only decides. You keep your existing PSP integrations, contracts and settlement exactly as they are. Payinference tells your stack which action to take, and your stack carries it out.
Deciding what should happen to a payment before it touches a rail. Payinference evaluates provider health, cost, risk and your merchant policy in real time and turns them into a single instruction with reason codes, so routing, retries, step-ups and blocks are deliberate, explainable decisions instead of static defaults.
