Ayoconnect, one of Indonesia’s largest API-first payment providers, faced rising costs at scale and difficulty integrating custom solutions within their existing gateway. As a licensed payment player governed by the Bank of Indonesia, they also needed to ensure strict compliance with regulations, including keeping all data in transit within the country.

By deploying Kong on their own Kubernetes infrastructure in Jakarta, Ayoconnect was able to take control of their API operations. The platform provided clear visibility into API performance, simplified integrations, and strengthened their security posture, all while ensuring compliance with local banking regulations.

With Kong, Ayoconnect accelerated their migration, going live with all proxies in just six weeks—half the original three-month timeline. The company also achieved a 12% reduction in cost per transaction while gaining full visibility into API performance and security posture. This improved observability and control ensured compliance with Bank of Indonesia regulations and streamlined custom integrations, enabling Ayoconnect to innovate faster and deliver more efficient, secure payment experiences to its customers.
