Payment processing for cards and wallets

Kody provides a payment processing platform that helps businesses accept multiple payment methods—cards, digital wallets, and open banking—through a single system. Its product lineup includes the KodyPOS terminal, a mobile app for iOS and Android, and KodyOrder, which lets hospitality customers order and pay at their tables. The platform also includes a content management system (CMS) for merchants to manage transactions, menus, discounts, and settings. Kody earns revenue through transaction fees charged to merchants for each payment processed. It targets a broad range of customers from SMEs to larger enterprises in retail and hospitality. The company’s goal is to simplify accepting and handling payments while providing operational tools through one integrated platform.
