XXImo, the European mobility payments platform, has migrated its infrastructure to Amazon Web Services (AWS) with the support of cloud services provider CloudNation.
With this step, XXImo sets a standard as one of the “first” companies worldwide to move 100% of their card processing “to the cloud, while integrating Visa Cloud Connect and Amazon Payment Cryptography (APC) on AWS.”
This marks a significant milestone in the evolution of cloud-based mobility payments, with XXImo “positioned to lead the charge in frictionless, scalable, and secure mobility payments.”
XXImo’s migration to AWS is a deliberate and forward-thinking move, as it ensures scalability, “enhanced security, and operational efficiency as the company scales up and expands to new markets.”
By processing transactions and encryption entirely in the cloud, XXImo reduces its reliance on hardware, “lowering maintenance costs while improving performance and resilience.”
This transition aligns with the broader shift in the payments industry toward cashless payments, driven “by the rapid adoption of digital wallets and mobile solutions.”
At the same time, instant payment systems are “becoming the norm, enabling real-time transactions and enhancing consumer convenience.”
With projections indicating that global business travel expenditures will exceed $2 trillion USD by 2028, “reflecting an annual growth rate of approximately 5%, XXImo’s cloud-first approach positions it to support the evolving demands of modern businesses.”
This strategy cements XXImo’s position “as a frontrunner in mobility payments, providing partners, customers and end users across Europe a future-proof, seamless, and secure payment experience.”
XXImo is among the first adopters of Visa Cloud Connect, enabling a direct and secure integration with Visa.
This eliminates the need for on-premises infrastructure, “allowing XXImo to scale and expand its mobility payment capabilities across new markets.”
In parallel, the implementation of APC marks a shift “away from traditional hardware-based encryption.”
With a cloud-native, pay-per-use encryption model, XXImo optimizes cost efficiency while “maintaining the highest security standards.”
The migration is executed in close collaboration “with AWS, Visa, and CloudNation—three tech leaders instrumental in facilitating the transformation.”
Zaheer Sacranie, CTO at XXImo said:
“By migrating to AWS, we are accelerating our ability to scale, innovate, and enhance our service delivery. With Visa Cloud Connect and APC, combined with our strategic partnerships with Visa, AWS, and CloudNation, we now process transactions with even greater efficiency and security. This transition enables us to offer improved SLAs, ensuring higher reliability and customer satisfaction. Additionally, we now have access to a wealth of on-demand services and expertise, allowing us to optimize operations and continuously enhance our platform’s capabilities.”
With its cloud-native infrastructure, XXImo is positioned “to lead the charge in frictionless, scalable, and secure mobility payments.”
By leveraging AWS, Visa Cloud Connect, and APC, the company notes that it is setting new industry standards “for transaction processing, ensuring its customers benefit from the most efficient and secure payment solutions available today.”
