Getting Started With Pagos

Pagos provides the data platform and tools you need to build, monitor, and optimize your payments processing. Turn your payments data into a strategic asset for identifying opportunities to increase revenue, decrease costs, fight fraud, and delight customers.

Everything You Can Do With Pagos

The Pagos suite of products are designed to function independently of one another. You can subscribe to services on their own or in any combination that makes sense for your business.

Quickly Access BIN Data

With our BIN Data tool, Parrot, you can request BIN data for the payment cards your customers transact with. ​​With the bank and market data provided by customer BINs, you can gain valuable context on those customers and their preferred payment methods.

Visualize and Analyze Harmonized Payments Data

Our Visualizations platform—Peacock—gives you access to self-service business intelligence for tracking the health of your payments ecosystem. You provide the data from each of your payment processors and we'll take care of harmonizing and organizing those metrics into dashboards of data visualizations that fit your unique business needs. With Peacock, you can break down all of your transactions, declines, chargebacks, orders, and more by an array of variables: from countries and currencies to card types and brands.

Have questions about your data? Wondering what some of the metrics are or what a certain industry term means? Pagos Copilot can help! This OpenAI-powered chatbot can answer questions about the payments industry and Pagos products, and can even help you dig into trends in your own data.

Monitor Payments Data For Anomalies and Trends

If you subscribe to Canary, you'll access our data anomaly observability and monitoring service. This product is designed to consolidate payments data from one or more platforms into a single place and alert you when key metrics change in unexpected ways. Detect issues or patterns, and predict opportunities to better serve your customers and increase your bottom line. Feel more secure in your payment processing with the knowledge that if anything changes drastically—whether it’s an outage, an issue with your setup, or a change in customer trends—you'll find out quickly.

Never again wonder if your payments metrics are measuring in an expected range for your business type or industry.

Export Aggregated & Harmonized Payments Data

The Pagos Data Platform provides businesses with a single data source for all their payments data, aggregated and harmonized across payment processors. Import all your payments data into Pagos using our no-code data connections or Data Ingest API and we’ll clean and aggregate it automatically. You can then download reports of your data to integrate into any custom workflows or systems you already use.
