To ensure a high level of security and availability of the platform we placed it in a cloud service that meets the top ten security standards, has protection against DDoS attacks and ensures that there is no physical access by unauthorized persons and organizations to the data and equipment.

Every year we pass PCI DSS certification. We also developed and constantly update our own anti-fraud system consisting of three levels: barrier, analytical, post-operator. This means that the fraudsters have no chance.

All the following payments will be made for your customers in 1 click, without having to enter any data and fill in the fields. Such care removes unnecessary barriers to purchase, the customers do not have to look for a card or recall the CVV code.

For those who regularly buy goods or purchase subscription services in Fondy, you can set up periodic debiting of money from the card (account) once a week/month/year using the payment calendar. The client will not have to bother with repeated payments, and you will always receive money on time.

For such cases Fondy offers a holding mechanism — freezing money in a client’s account for a while. If there is no product, you can return the money back to the client in 1 click.
