Case Study: Streamline achieves PCI compliance and payments flexibility with Basis Theory

Streamline cuts PCI scope by 90% with Basis Theory in 14 days

Streamline, a business automation platform based in Charlotte, NC, faced significant challenges in building a flexible payments product for its developers. They needed to offer dynamic payment workflows without the immense cost and risk of building and maintaining their own PCI-compliant cardholder data environment. After a frustrating experience with another tokenization provider, they turned to Basis Theory for a solution.

Basis Theory provided a non-opinionated tokenization platform, including its Elements for secure data collection and Reactors with Proxy for programmable data routing. This solution allowed Streamline to integrate quickly, completing implementation in just 14 days while removing over 100 lines of code. By leveraging Basis Theory's PCI-compliant infrastructure, Streamline saved an estimated $200,000 per year in support costs, reduced its compliance scope by 90%, and doubled the number of payment providers available to its customers.
