Black Friday and Cyber Monday are just around the corner. Is your payment system ready for the surge in transactions?
Stress Test Your Systems
Run load tests that simulate your expected peak traffic—and then double it.
Review Your Fraud Settings
Your fraud prevention settings need to strike a delicate balance.
Optimize Checkout Flow
Every additional second or unnecessary field costs you conversions.
Prepare for Mobile
Over 60% of Black Friday traffic now comes from mobile devices.
Monitor in Real-Time
Use your Paebs dashboard to monitor transactions in real-time during peak periods.
