How does Priority Payments work with Fortress OS?
Fortress OS sits underneath your stack as the operating layer. When something changes in Priority Payments, Fortress picks it up and pushes it to the other systems that care. No double entry. No end-of-month reconciling. No spreadsheets stitching things together.
What data flows between the two?
The exact fields depend on the payments use case. The goal is simple: both systems show the same truth. Records, statuses, and key events stay in sync. Your team is not the human glue between them.
Who handles the setup?
Our integrations team handles documentation exchange, API keys, and end-to-end testing. Most Priority Payments connections go live in a few weeks. You can request a setup any time.
Why should you connect Priority Payments to Fortress OS?
Card acceptance and vendor payables usually come from two providers with two contracts and two reconciliation processes. Running both through one platform means the money coming in and the money going out are described the same way.
What changes once you connect Priority Payments?
Same payments tool. Different day-to-day for your team.
| Daily task | Without the integration | With Fortress OS + Priority Payments |
|---|---|---|
| Keeping records in sync | Copy-paste between tabs, hope you got the numbers right. | Records match across both systems on their own. |
| End-of-month reconciling | Spreadsheet exports, manual cleanup, late nights. | Numbers already line up. Close the month, go home. |
| Onboarding new properties | Manual setup in Priority Payments and every other system. | Fortress provisions the connection so new sites pick it up. |
| Answering “what’s the truth?” | Open three tabs, compare, guess which one is current. | One source of truth, kept fresh by Fortress. |
