Wallets and payments for live competition.

In live competition every second of downtime is on camera. We build the in-event wallets, payments, and anti-fraud that stay fast and available while thousands transact at once.

In live esports, every stutter is on camera — and thousands of wallets fire in the same sixty seconds.

The esports problem
/// The constraint

Downtime happens on camera.

The audience sees every stutter, and thousands of wallets transact in the same few minutes. We build low-latency, high-availability payment and wallet systems with fraud scoring in the path — fast enough to feel instant, hard enough to hold under a coordinated rush.

  • [ 02 ]High availability under a synchronized rush
  • [ 03 ]Fraud and risk scoring in the transaction path
  • [ 04 ]Real-time data for the broadcast and the ops room
/// Operations

Tournament day, engineered.

Doors
Accounts and wallets provision
Attendees onboard and top up in a pre-event surge — the first load test of the day, absorbed before a match starts.
Tip-off
The broadcast goes live
Real-time leaderboards and stats feed the stream with sub-second data, straight off the same systems taking payments.
The spike
A play sends the crowd
Thousands of transactions land in seconds; the wallet layer scales horizontally and never blocks the queue.
Attack
Fraud tries its luck
Risk scoring runs in the transaction path, catching coordinated abuse without slowing legitimate play.
Payout
The lights come down
Settlement and payout reconcile cleanly against the event ledger — a balanced close, on the night.
/// In the field
The 21:42 spike, held: 4,213 TPS, p95 141 ms under a 200 ms budget, 0 lost transactions — risk scoring inline at 4 ms.
The night, reconciled to €0.00 variance — €120,000 in prizes over SEPA before the lights come down.
An in-event wallet that keeps up with the crowd: tap paid in 0.14 s, top-up before the half-time rush, unspent balance refunds itself.
Broadcast-grade data on a 0.4 s feed — score, standings and round history straight off the same systems taking payments.
