API First Architecture

API Integration & System
Integration in Kenya

Statum provides specialized API integration services in Kenya, bridging the gap between your core business logic and global digital ecosystems. We build secure system integration solutions that connect M-Pesa, KRA, ERP components, and legacy databases into a unified, high-performance architecture.

Advanced API
Integration Services

Connecting to a third-party service shouldn't be a bottleneck. Our API integration services are designed for reliability, ensuring that your connection to payment gateways (M-Pesa, Stripe), logistics platforms, and SMS providers remains stable even during peak traffic.

we don't just "plug in" an API; we architect an integration layer that handles exponential backoffs, automatic retries, and comprehensive error logging. This ensures your business stays operational even when external providers experience downtime.

Payment Orchestration

Unified M-Pesa, Card, and Bank APIs into a single, cohesive checkout experience.

Real-time Webhooks

Instant notification systems for transaction confirmations and state changes across your apps.

Backend Excellence

Building an API is more than just exposing database rows to JSON. It's about designing a contract that developer teams love to use.

We specialize in backend API development in Kenya, focusing on idempotency, rate limiting, and secure authentication (OAuth2/JWT). Our systems act as the reliable middleware between your mobile apps, web frontends, and third-party services like M-Pesa.

Enterprise
System Integration

Modern business logic often relies on a mix of legacy systems and cutting-edge cloud services. Our system integration and middleware development expertise allows you to bridge these worlds without a complete, high-risk overhaul.

We build secure middleware layers that act as the central nervous system for your enterprise. Whether you're connecting Oracle/SAP ERPs to modern web dashboards, or synchronizing on-premise databases with cloud-native applications, our engineers ensure data consistency and high availability.

Our approach to enterprise integration focuses on security by design. By implementing strict IP whitelisting, mutual TLS (mTLS), and centralized audit logs, we transform fragmented tools into a single, cohesive, and secure digital asset.

Integration Workflow

Discovery & Mapping

We audit your existing systems and map out data flow requirements.

02
Middleware Architecture

Design a decoupled layer to bridge disparate protocols and data formats.

03
UAT & Deployment

Rigorous stress testing followed by seamless, staged transition.

Expert Endpoints

We provide a comprehensive suite of tools for digital distribution. Each API is a gateway to a larger Orchestration capability.

SMS API

A high-velocity messaging platform designed for OTPs, alerts, and transactional engagements. Ensure your users never miss a critical update.
