MONEY STATES

Every penny, accounted for

Seven explicit states with only one valid action at a time, you can't skip steps, and every transition is enforced, logged and permanent.

Why explicit states?

Most payment systems treat money as either "in" or "out," and that's where the mistakes hide. Fluxa forces every stage to be acknowledged, so reconciliation is simple and disputes are easy to resolve.

1,325 automated tests across 16 test suites verify every state transition, every guard, every edge case and every concurrent race condition. The state machine is proven in code, not promised in a pitch deck.

FEATURES

Built properly

Built for companies that can't afford unreliable payments.

Core

Deterministic state machine

Seven money states, each enforced and logged as they happen, you can't skip steps, you can't move backwards, and the state machine is the single source of truth for every payment.

Ledger

Double-entry accounting

Every financial movement is recorded as a double-entry posting, running independently of the state machine to give you a second layer of verification.

Auth

Operator controls

Token-based auth with role-based access, so every action is tied to a specific operator identity and shows up in the audit trail.

Intelligence

19-detector anomaly engine

Catches failure spikes, volume drops, distribution shifts, stuck checkouts, latency creep and velocity anomalies before you even notice them, with 223 tests across the detection layer alone.

Safety

Concurrent safety

Bank-grade idempotency on all write operations means multiple operators can approve simultaneously but only one payout ever executes, enforced by row-level locking in Postgres.

Ops

Circuit breaker and dry-run

If an external service fails, Fluxa stops retrying and fails safely instead of cascading the problem. You can also preview any dangerous action before committing to it.

FAQ

Straight answers

Do customers need a Fluxa account?+
No, customers just pay normally with their card, Apple Pay or Google Pay without creating an account or doing anything extra. Fluxa is completely invisible to the end customer.
What payment methods do you support?+
Visa and Mastercard, which between them cover roughly 98% of UK card transactions, plus Apple Pay and Google Pay which tokenise existing Visa and Mastercard cards for contactless payments.
What is the fee structure?+
A flat percentage per transaction and nothing else, 1.8% for founding merchants which is locked for 12 months, then 2% standard after that, with no hidden charges, no monthly minimums and no per-transaction fixed fee.
How is this different from Stripe?+
Stripe UK charges 1.5% + 20p on the surface, but effective rates for UK SaaS typically land between 2.3% and 2.8% once you factor in corporate card surcharges and international card fees. Fluxa charges a flat percentage with no add-ons at all, and you also get explicit money states, a full operator audit trail and human-approved money movement by default.
How do refunds work?+
Refunds are a first-class state in the system, so every refund requires a reason and gets logged to the timeline with double-refund protection built in. You can't accidentally refund the same payment twice, and you can't refund after payout has already been sent.
Who is Fluxa built for?+
UK-based SaaS companies, digital product businesses, and any company processing card payments where transparency, reliability and a clear audit trail matter more than having 200 payment methods you'll never use.
How hard is it to integrate?+
You make one API call to create a checkout session and get back a hosted payment URL, there's no frontend SDK to wrestle with, no PCI scope to worry about and no webhook maze to untangle. It's straightforward and we'll walk you through it.
Can I test before going live?+
Yes, every merchant gets full sandbox access before going live so you can test the entire payment flow end-to-end with real API calls and simulated card processing.
