Gradion: Powering the Core Infrastructure
of E-Commerce & Fintech

In the rapidly evolving digital landscape, seamless customer experiences rely on robust, scalable infrastructure. Gradion specializes exclusively in providing foundational technology-powering not just online shops, but also critical fintech solutions that drive today’s digital economy.

We Are Not an Agency. We’re Infrastructure Specialists

Our engineers help clients unlock the full potential of Shopify’s ecosystem while ensuring scalable, secure experiences.

Trusted Infrastructure Partner in Fintech

Gradion is also a trusted infrastructure partner behind some of Europe’s leading payment service providers (PSPs). Our systems and technologies currently process Gross Merchant Value (GMV) exceeding €6 billion annually, showcasing our capability to handle secure, high-volume transactions with flawless reliability.

Furthermore, Gradion has been integral to the digital transformation of several major Swiss banks, enhancing their infrastructure and enabling innovative fintech solutions. Due to confidentiality agreements, these partnerships remain unnamed, underscoring the critical, trusted nature of our work in sensitive financial environments.
