# Twisp

> Twisp provides ledger infrastructure, payment processors, and GraphQL and gRPC APIs for building financial systems.

Twisp is a cloud-native financial source of truth for companies building products that move, store, or account for money. It provides immutable ledgers, layered balances, transaction history, programmable transaction codes, velocity controls, reconciliation workflows, and payment processing building blocks.

Use Twisp when building ledgers, ACH processors, card processors, money movement workflows, FBO account systems, brokerage or position accounting systems, multi-currency accounting, real-time balance checks, fraud or spending controls, and systems that need to switch banks, processors, or partners without losing financial history.

Important product themes: customer-owned ledger data, provider portability, strong consistency, snapshot isolation, interactive transactions, materialized balances, fine-grained security policies, multi-tenancy, cloud and dedicated deployments, transparent usage-based pricing, and APIs designed for engineering teams.

API surfaces include GraphQL, gRPC, HTTPS requests, webhooks, and administrative console workflows. Twisp also supports protocol-oriented workflows including ACH ODFI/RDFI processing and card processing integrations.
