About the role

AM/ Specialist – Payment Gateways & Corridors
 
Role Overview

ACE Money Transfer is a leading global remittance company operating across multiple corridors with integrations to international payment gateways and local Alternative Payment Methods (APMs). We are looking for a leader to own and drive the performance of our entire payments infrastructure.

This role sits at the intersection of operations, technology, and partnerships. The Assistant Manager / Specialist Payment Gateways & Corridors will be accountable for acceptance rates, gateway uptime, corridor health, and strategic expansion of payment options. This is a high-ownership position requiring deep domain expertise, strong analytical capability, and the ability to influence internal and external stakeholders at all levels.



Key Responsibilities


Gateway & Corridor Performance Management
 
  • Own end-to-end acceptance rates across all active corridors and payment gateways; set and enforce minimum acceptance rate thresholds by corridor.
  • Proactively monitor gateway performance dashboards in real time; identify and resolve degradation before it impacts customers.
  • Conduct deep-dive analysis on transaction decline reasons — issuer declines, network errors, fraud blocks, and routing failures — and implement targeted fixes.
  • Maintain a gateway health scorecard covering uptime, success rate, latency, and dispute ratio for each active integration.
  • Manage and optimize payment routing logic to maximize success rates and minimize costs across gateways.

Integration & Technical Oversight
 
  • Lead integration lifecycle from Operations for new payment gateways and local APMs
  • Collaborate with the cross functional teams to ensure robust, smooth gateway integrations with appropriate fallback mechanisms.
  • Manage integration documentation, API change logs, and versioning to ensure business continuity during gateway upgrades.
  • Evaluate and onboard new payment methods (wallets, real-time bank transfers, cash networks) in target markets to improve customer reach and corridor resilience.
  • Define and enforce technical SLAs with gateway and APM partners.


Operations & Incident Management
 
  • Act as escalation point for all payment-related issues; lead root cause analysis (RCA) and drive timely resolution with internal and external teams.
  • Establish and maintain payment operations monitoring framework with defined escalation paths and response SLAs.
  • Develop and maintain incident runbooks and standard operating procedures (SOPs) for common gateway failure scenarios.
  • Ensure redundancy across pay-in options in all critical corridors to protect business continuity.
  • Oversee settlement processes, reconciliation accuracy, and resolution of transaction discrepancies.

Data, Reporting & Analytics
 
  • Design and maintain real-time and daily operational dashboards tracking KPIs: acceptance rate, decline rate by reason, gateway uptime, corridor-level performance, and cost per transaction.
  • Produce weekly and monthly performance reports for senior leadership with actionable insights and improvement plans.
  • Leverage transaction data to identify trends, seasonality impacts, and corridor-specific risks.
  • Lead regular gateway and APM performance reviews with internal stakeholders; chair quarterly business reviews (QBRs) with key payment partners.

Partner & Vendor Management
 
  • Serve as the primary operations relationship owner for all payment gateway and APM partners; manage escalations and SLA adherence.
  • Negotiate commercial terms, pricing, and service levels with gateway partners to optimize cost and performance.
  • Build and maintain a strategic operational pipeline of alternative gateway and APM partners for each corridor to reduce single-point-of-failure risk and work in collaboration with internal stakeholders.

Process Improvement & Automation
 
  • Continuously identify and automate manual operational processes to reduce human error and improve scalability.
  • Drive implementation of intelligent payment routing, retry logic, and dynamic gateway failover.
  • Champion best practices in payments operations across the team; establish structured knowledge management and documentation standards.
  • Lead or contribute to strategic projects (e.g., new market launches, major gateway migrations) as directed by leadership.

Compliance & Risk
 
  • Work with the compliance team to manage fraud risk, transaction monitoring, and flagged payment resolution.
  • Maintain audit trails for payment transactions, workflow changes, and partner communications.
