NPCI NFS-grade · IMPS Switch

The IMPS switch India's banks deserved ten years ago.

A horizontally scalable, graph-aware IMPS core that connects directly to the NPCI NFS switch, federates with UPI, NEFT, RTGS and RuPay, and embeds inline fraud decisioning on every transaction hop without the latency penalty of bolted-on risk engines.

How it's built

What the IMPS switch does

IMPS Switch · Transaction Flow Engine

A modern IMPS switch serves as the technological backbone for financial institutions, managing all message flows between a bank or fintech (the s Issuer/Acquirer) and the NPCI central infrastructure. Its core functions include:

Receiving & Validating

Ingests and validates IMPS transactions

• Receives IMPS requests from mobile apps, ATM, and net banking
• Validates transactions against business rules
• Checks balances and limits via CBS integration
• Ensures request authenticity before processing

Message Transformation

Converts data to NPCI-compatible formats

• Transforms transactions into ISO 8583 format
• Ensures compliance with NPCI messaging standards
• Handles bidirectional transformation (request/response)
• Maintains message integrity across systems

Routing & State Management

Manages complete transaction lifecycle

• Controls flow from authorization to completion
• Implements exactly-once transaction state machine
• Prevents duplicate or inconsistent processing
• Maintains full lifecycle tracking for each transaction

Settlement & Reconciliation

Ensures accurate financial settlement

• Processes real-time NPCI settlement files
• Performs T+0 reconciliation automatically
• Confirms debit and credit accuracy
• Eliminates manual reconciliation errors

Security & Fraud Prevention

Real-time protection against fraud

• Applies inline risk scoring on transactions
• Detects suspicious and mule account activity
• Enforces strict security policies
• Protects transactions in real time without latency impact

Why HyperBolt UPI Switch

The first IMPS switch engineered for India's real-time rails and modern fraud challenges.

Most legacy systems are built on outdated payment architectures with bolt-on IMPS support and external risk engines. HyperBolt is IMPS native, real-time, and designed for high-speed interbank transactions with built-in intelligence.
