What is Hyparrow?

Hyparrow is a payment gateway API that lets you embed financial services directly into your product. You create an account, complete KYC, generate API keys, and start moving money — without building payment infrastructure from scratch. Hyparrow handles the underlying connections to payment networks, banks, and billing systems. You call the API; Hyparrow does the rest.

Who is it for?

Hyparrow is designed for developers and product teams building:
  • Fintech applications that need to collect payments or disburse funds
  • Platforms that want to offer bill payment (utilities, airtime, data) to their users
  • Businesses that invoice clients and need programmatic payment tracking
  • Any product that needs virtual accounts, bank transfers, or card payments as a feature
