August 2025 — Serfinsa, a leading Central American company in payment processing solutions, and INETCO, a global company specializing in real-time transaction monitoring and payment fraud prevention, formed a strategic alliance that redefines the reliability, efficiency and security of the region’s financial ecosystem while accelerating Serfinsa’s growth strategy.
With more than 30 years of experience, Serfinsa has developed one of the most reliable infrastructures for payment processing, consolidating its presence in El Salvador and expanding significantly into key markets such as: Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Guatemala and Panamá.
Serfinsa, powered by INETCO can now:
- Secure the performance reliability of every transaction across POS, e-commerce channels and ATMs – without impacting the speed of authorization
- Detect payment performance issues proactively, including transaction bottlenecks, third party payment disconnects and card scheme errors before they impact customers or result in penalties
- Access comprehensive transaction data and build powerful real-time performance dashboards and business analytics for every customer
This alliance responds to the urgent need for intelligent, agile and robust tools that enable banks, fintechs, Payfacs, cooperatives and financial institutions to anticipate and adapt challenges of an increasingly dynamic payments environment. The integration of INETCO Insight into Serfinsa’s regional network improves operational response times and enables faster, more accurate decision-making based on real-time data.
“When our clients win, we win too,” says Leandro Guini, CEO of Serfinsa. “This alliance allows us to offer more secure services with proactive performance management and actionable business insights.”
“Real-time intelligence is the new competitive advantage,” adds Bijan Sanii, CEO of INETCO. “We are proud to support Serfinsa in this stage of expansion and technological evolution by providing them with the operational edge to stay ahead, turning every transaction into a strategic signal that helps their customers grow smarter and more securely.”
This step is the cornerstone of Serfina’s growth strategy as they expand their capabilities across Central America demonstrating the strength of the alliance.
INETCO continues to be selected by leading banks and processors in Central America and around the world monitoring over 60 billion transactions annually.
