The Zepto Ecosystem

Zepto is an interconnected ecosystem of highly composable cloud-native technology architected for scale, real-time payments infrastructure, open banking capabilities, a cohort of payments-obsessed people, a culture of innovation, automation and agility. And one very clever API.

Encryption & Security

All persisted data is encrypted at rest in highly available, replicated databases across Australian regions. Overarching these facilities is a suite of logging, security & intrusion detection/monitoring tools enabling real time notifications, administrative UI and automated response plans.

Speed & Scale

Zepto utilises modern devops best practices and tools such as Kubernetes to facilitate rapid deployment, scaling and visibility.

Open banking

In September 2021, Zepto became the first non-bank payments provider in Australia to receive Accredited Data Recipient [ADR] accreditation under the ACCC’s Consumer Data Right [CDR].

We believe that open banking is more than just a secure connection to transactional data, it is an ideology that can deliver positive social outcomes for everyone.

Real Time Payments Platform

Australia’s New Payment Platform (NPP) infrastructure powers real-time payments. Zepto accesses NPP real-time payment rails through our accreditation as a New Payment Platform Identified Institution.

People

Our people are the very best in the business, and are core to who we are as a company. We are creative, curious, compassionate and passionate about payments. 

We acknowledge our great fortune to be creating a remarkable company from Byron Bay on the lands of the Arakwal people of the Bundjalung nation–the traditional custodians of this country.
