The SparkBase Processing Gateway is the core of the SparkBase network. It uses modern open-source architecture to process gift and loyalty transactions for financial institutions, merchant services companies, and independent resellers.
The business logic is contained in the transaction processing gateway, and the individual rules are processed in real-time by the program architecture. This leverages several technologies to produce real-time balance and program data for clients.
