As a payment gateway and secure processor of millions of transactions annually, E-xact has been delivering software as a service for over 10 years.  We pride ourselves on our application’s non-storing capabilities and full PCI compliance. We provide fast, agile, easy to use batch and recurring transaction tools as well as financial services solution development. E-xact has a globally distributed development team, 24/7/365 development, and redundant network operations centers. But there is much more to our Rails success story.

Our Rails Story

Becoming one of the largest Rails-powered financial services developers in the world was not an overnight change but it did come quickly. This radical departure from Microsoft Certified Solutions Partner status took place over the course of several months and saw the migration of over 9,000 users from E-xact’s .NET platform to the newly developed Rails-powered application.

What we’ve built and how

E-xact uses a fully Open Source stack including: Lighttpd, Mongrel, Agile development, Capistrano, legacy databases, mySQL, and AJAX. With our developers wielding Ruby on Rails at the helm, we were able to go from 100K Lines of Code down to 20K with our realtime payment manager application, RPM.

Where we are

Some E-xact clients using RPM for thousands of daily transactions include: FedEx, Chase Paymentech, ADT, The US Embassy, Sleep Country Canada, U-Haul, Starbucks, Intrawest, and Avon. We also offer solutions for smaller businesses like Mudbusters Car Wash whose safe transaction management is just as mission-critical.
