VeryGoodSecurity alternative
Card vaulting plus routing — not vaulting you build routing on.
VeryGoodSecurity (VGS) is excellent at tokenization and PCI scope reduction, but it's a security layer, not a routing engine — you still build orchestration and failover on top. NeverDown gives you portable vaulting and health-aware routing together, at a flat price.
NeverDown vs VeryGoodSecurity
Same orchestration. A fraction of the cost.
VGS pricing is enterprise and usage-based — and still leaves routing for you to build.
How VeryGoodSecurity is built
A strong platform — for a different buyer.
Security layer, not orchestration
VGS focuses on tokenization and PCI scope reduction; multi-processor routing and failover are your job to build around it.
Enterprise & usage pricing
Commercial terms are enterprise-oriented and usage-based rather than a single flat monthly plan.
No vertical risk tuning
As infrastructure, VGS is deliberately vertical-agnostic — it doesn't address high-risk flag or termination patterns.
Why merchants pick NeverDown
Built for high-risk survival, priced for growth.
Vaulting and routing in one
You get portable tokenization and the routing engine together — no orchestration layer to build on top of the vault.
Failover included
Automatic reroute during a termination ships by default, rather than being something you engineer yourself.
Flat pricing, high-risk focus
$499/month, purpose-built for the verticals that get de-platformed most.
Other comparisons
Stop betting your revenue on one processor.
Bring the accounts you already hold. We'll route across them, keep an independent record, and keep you processing through the next termination event.
