2C2P by Antom, a payments platform operating across Southeast Asia (SEA), is using Amazon Web Services (AWS) to support millions of daily transactions while adopting artificial intelligence (AI) tools to speed up software development and merchant onboarding.
2C2P by Antom connects more than 400 payment methods in over 150 currencies across six markets in the region. It serves more than 25 national and regional airlines and operates 600,000 payment acceptance points across the region and beyond.
The partnership highlights the growing demand for reliable payment infrastructure in SEA, where businesses must manage multiple currencies, payment methods, and regulatory requirements across different countries.
For merchants, including airlines, online retailers, and physical stores, payment speed can directly affect sales. Delays at checkout often lead to abandoned purchases and lost revenue.
To address this challenge, 2C2P developed PACO (Payment Airline Controller), an in-house platform that routes and secures payments through local payment networks, digital wallets, bank transfers, QR payments, and global card systems using a single application programming interface (API).
The platform is designed to handle large transaction spikes, such as during major online shopping events when payment volumes can surge to more than 30 times normal levels.
“Southeast Asia’s payments ecosystem is among the most fragmented in the world with over 400 methods across dozens of currencies,” said Vatsun Thirapatarapong, country manager at AWS Thailand. “2C2P has turned that complexity into a competitive advantage, building a payments orchestration layer on AWS that connects hundreds of payment systems and currencies while maintaining the speed and security that airlines and merchants demand.”
“There are hundreds of different payment ecosystems globally, and our job is to connect and orchestrate them through a single API,” said Worachat Luxkanalode, Group CEO of 2C2P by Antom. “In payments, downtime is not an option.”
The executive said the company has recorded productivity gains of about 40% from its technology investments.
2C2P is also exploring generative AI to automate parts of its operations. Using Amazon Bedrock, the company is testing tools that can generate payment integration code for merchants. It said some integration work that currently takes days could eventually be completed in minutes.
2C2P is also using AI-assisted software development tools to shorten code review cycles from about a week to a day and accelerate the delivery of new features. Also, AWS Transform is helping modernize older applications, reducing upgrade projects that previously took months to complete.
