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.

Rapid integration; no disruption
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.
