We’re thrilled to share a big milestone:

Orbital has successfully maintained its SOC 2 Type 2 compliance, and achieved CSA STAR Level 2 - two of the most trusted benchmarks for security, availability, and resilience.

What this means:

SOC 2 Type 2:

An independent audit that validates that our security and availability controls don’t just exist on paper, they operate effectively over time.

CSA STAR Level 2:

A globally recognised cloud security framework validating that our systems are securely engineered for complex, high-scale environments.

For you, this is independent assurance that the infrastructure powering your payments meets internationally recognised standards.

This is a massive accomplishment by the team. SOC 2 Type 2 compliance, and CSA STAR Level 2 are rigorous validations of Orbital's commitment to security and resilience. Our customers can be confident that our platform is engineered to the highest standards, allowing them to focus on what matters most, their growth." Richard Lindsay, Chief Operating Officer, Orbital

Our commitment to continuous improvement

As Dominic Meagher, Orbital’s Cyber & Information Security Manager, puts it: “No single certification removes risk. What they do is give our customers confidence that independent experts have tested our controls and that we’re aligned with globally recognised frameworks. For us, SOC 2 and CSA STAR are milestones, not finish lines, we’re continuously tuning controls, broadening coverage, and stress-testing for what’s next.”

Orbital’s commitment: we’ll keep raising the bar - expanding control coverage, deepening monitoring, and pressure-testing our platform so that we can continue to build and deliver enterprise-grade payment systems.
