“Can a payment orchestration layer become the single API through which merchants access every PSP, payment method, and embedded finance capability they need?”

The story
BR-DGE is a payment orchestration infrastructure provider, sitting as a middleware layer between merchants and payment processors. Its core value proposition is a single API that routes transactions across a wide array of PSPs, enabling merchants to optimise authorisation rates, reduce costs, and access new payment methods. The platform has extended beyond card routing into open banking payments via a Moneyhub partnership and instalment payments via Visa Instalments Solution, positioning itself as a broader payment experience layer rather than a pure routing engine.
