A unified gateway for CBE payment channels — managing enterprise-grade security and complex bank protocols so your team doesn't have to.

The fastest path to CBE payment channels

Build your product. We'll handle the CBE integration.

Prana Connect provides a unified gateway for all CBE payment channels. We handle the underlying security and connectivity so your team stops managing complex bank infrastructure and starts shipping product.

A pre-configured environment for protocol translation, secure connectivity, and compliance — one standard interface, no bank infrastructure to maintain.

integration.ts
import { PranaConnect } from "@prana/connect";

const client = new PranaConnect({
  apiKey: process.env.PRANA_API_KEY,
  environment: "production"
 });

// That's it. Complex bank protocols and security are handled automatically.
const payment = await client.initiate({
  channel: "mobile-banking",
  amount: 1500.00,
  currency: "ETB",
  reference: "INV-2024-001"
});

// payment.id → txn_8f3k2m9x1n

What you get

Skip the bank infrastructure. Ship your product.

Prana Connect removes weeks of integration work. Here's what we handle so you don't have to.

One Integration, All Channels

Connect to mobile banking, USSD, internet banking, and more through a single REST API. No need to build separate integrations for each CBE channel.

Managed Security

We provide enterprise-grade security including automated TLS management and regulatory compliance, so your team can focus on building product.

Protocol Translation

Send standard JSON requests. Prana Connect translates them to the SOAP/XML formats the bank requires and returns clean responses.

Sub-Second Latency

Optimized connection pooling and caching. Payment initiation calls resolve in under 200ms on average.

Pre-Built Compliance

Transaction logging, audit trails, and regulatory reporting are handled automatically. Pass audits without writing extra code.

Sandbox Environment

Test against real CBE channel behavior with our sandbox. Simulate success, failure, and edge cases before going live.
