Detailed Review
Corefy was formerly named PayCore.io and had its first public beta in November 2018, shown at Web Summit. The website terms name PAYCORE.IO LIMITED, a company under the laws of England and Wales, trading as Corefy.
Those terms are dated November 2020, so the entity that signs a customer contract should be confirmed. The product pages list a white-label gateway, a payment bridge, a checkout builder and payouts.
Provider hub
The payment bridge advertises access to 650+ connectors, and PayAtlas is described as a payment services marketplace. Routing and cascading sit in the orchestration group, with currency conversion and merchant management alongside.
The number counts connectors, not live acquirers in your country.
Plans instead of a bespoke contract
The pricing page shows Standard and Professional plans, payable monthly or annually without long-term commitment. Both include a monthly infrastructure fee and a quota of successful transactions, and the plans increase in features such as a hosted payment page in your design and a white-label package.
The amounts are not readable in the page text, so use the call-booking route to get the figures.
White label for payment businesses
Corefy sells to payment businesses that resell processing as well as to merchants. The Professional plan includes a merchant portal, documentation and ledger under your own branding.
If you only need failover between two acquirers, this is more than required.
Limitations to Consider
Amounts on the plans are not visible, so a quote is still needed. The terms we could read are from 2020 and name an English company, so the signing entity should be checked. The UK is outside the EU. Connector counts do not prove coverage in your markets. For a Cyprus-registered alternative see BridgerPay.
Who Should Use Corefy
Payment service providers, ISOs and mid-size merchants that want a hosted provider hub with plan-based pricing.
