Overview
Serverless Payment Processing by Business Compass LLC
Business Compass LLC is an AWS Advanced Consulting Partner and AWS Well-Architected Framework Partner with50+ AWS certifications spanning Solution Architect Professional, Developer Professional, Network Specialty, ML Specialty, and more. We specialize in cloud migration, AI/ML, IoT, DevOps, and data analytics across Financial, Media, Healthcare, Power, and Public Sector industries.
Our Serverless Payment Processing service delivers a fully architected, production-ready payment infrastructure on AWS - integrating with processors including Stripe, PayPal, and Recurly. We design and deploy event-driven architectures that handle high-volume transactions without provisioned servers, reducing operational overhead and enabling automatic scaling during peak demand.
Use Cases
- High-volume e-commerce transaction processing: Handle traffic spikes such as flash sales or seasonal peaks with Lambda-based processing that scales automatically to meet demand without capacity planning.
- Serverless web and mobile payment integration: Connect your applications to payment processors through API Gateway with CloudFront distribution for low-latency global reach.
- Secure webhook event handling: Protect inbound webhook notifications from payment processors using WAF IP whitelisting rules, ensuring only verified traffic reaches your processing logic.
Technology Stack
- AWS Lambda - Event-driven transaction processing with automatic scaling
- Amazon API Gateway - Managed REST/HTTP endpoints for payment requests
- Amazon CloudFront - Global content delivery for low-latency responses
- AWS WAF - Web application firewall with IP-based access controls for webhook security
- Amazon DynamoDB - Transaction storage and reconciliation (where applicable)
Security and Compliance Approach
Our architectures are designed with PCI DSS compliance in mind. We implement encryption in transit via TLS, leverage AWS WAF for IP whitelisting of payment processor webhook sources, and design solutions that minimize PCI scope through tokenization patterns offered by supported processors. We also align with HIPAA, NIST 800, and SOC2 security frameworks as applicable to your environment.
Engagement Process
- Discovery and Scoping - We assess your current payment workflows, transaction volumes, processor requirements, and compliance needs.
- Architecture Design - We produce a detailed architecture diagram and implementation plan aligned with the AWS Well-Architected Framework.
- Implementation - We build and deploy the serverless payment infrastructure in your AWS account, including Lambda functions, API Gateway configurations, WAF rules, and CloudFront distributions.
- Testing and Validation - End-to-end testing of transaction flows, webhook handling, and failover scenarios.
- Handoff and Documentation - We deliver deployed infrastructure, Infrastructure as Code templates, operational runbooks, and architecture documentation.
Prerequisites
- An active AWS account with appropriate IAM permissions
- Active account(s) with your chosen payment processor (Stripe, PayPal, or Recurly)
- Defined transaction flow requirements and expected volume estimates
Scope Boundaries
This engagement covers serverless payment infrastructure design and deployment. Custom UI development, payment processor account setup, and full PCI DSS certification audits are outside the scope of this service.
