Cayan and the Holiday Freeze
Most (if not all) payment processors have some kind of "lock down" as they enter the holiday season. This lock down does not usually come off until the start of the New Year.
Here is an example from one processor…. “During these months, xxxxxx closely reviews payment processing activity and designates specific days within that period during which no product or process will be altered”.
Cayan does not have any “release freezes” or “production lock downs” as we approach the holidays. We’re fully staffed through the Christmas holidays, and our rigorous automated testing approach ensures that we won’t cause regressions in production. We’re happy to onboard new partners – or start new certifications with existing partners - and shepherd them through the certification process regardless of the time of year.
Here is a quick blog from our SVP of Engineering that explains how ISV’s can simply certify to Cayan….Introducing Cayan's Test Processor
