Skyflow vs. Shift4
One secure vault for all your sensitive data and compliance needs
Break Free from PSP Lock-in With Skyflow
Tired of payment processors holding your data hostage?
Legacy tokenization approaches create frustrating barriers to leveraging your own data, but Skyflow's modern data privacy vault sets you free. By protecting sensitive data and simplifying PCI compliance, Skyflow gives you unlimited data access without the infuriating usage penalties or restrictive tokenization constraints that slow your business down.
One API for all sensitive data
Predictable costs without API call limits
Why Do Customers Switch to Skyflow?
Flexible Integrations for Payments
Traditional processors offer an all-or-nothing deal: use their security and processing, and pay their rates. Skyflow integrates with multiple processors to boost authorization rates and cut fees.
Migrate in weeks, not months, using Skyflow's zero-downtime BYOT capability.
Privacy-by-Design Architecture
Legacy systems expose gaps at scale. Skyflow's zero-trust architecture handles billions of records with secure analytics on encrypted data and global data residency for all sensitive data types.
Isolate, protect and govern sensitive data by design, not as an afterthought.
Predictable, Transparent Pricing
Most payment solutions charge per API call – more usage means higher cost. Skyflow prices by data subjects protected, not interactions or API usage, avoiding surprise bills when your business grows.
Switch to Skyflow and reduce your TCO while gaining enterprise-grade security for all sensitive data.

"A big thank you to Skyflow for powering the critical data privacy and security components that make our managed dispute services solution possible."
Shane Malloy
"Skyflow's pricing model is unique. For somebody like us who are making millions of API requests a day, it's a very scalable and predictable cost model."
Stephan Nagy
“It would take 3 engineers 6-12 months to build the basics of this solution internally, and 2 engineers to maintain it. Building in-house would have drastically slowed our time-to-market. Skyflow made everything easy."
Johnny Mitrevski
“We were up and running on Skyflow in just hours, rather than the months it would take to build and implement even a fraction of this data privacy rigor.”
Boe Hartman
