## What it is
Hyperswitch Prism is a stateless, unified connector library for integrating with 60+ payment processors (Stripe, Adyen, Braintree, PayPal, Worldpay, etc.) through a single request schema. Extracted from the Juspay Hyperswitch platform, it stores no credentials or PII and supports Node.js, Python, and Java SDKs.

## Use cases
- integrate multiple payment processors with one library
- switch payment gateways with few lines of code
- unify Stripe and Adyen payment API calls
- reduce PCI compliance scope in payment handling
- add PayPal and Braintree to an existing checkout
- avoid vendor lock-in with a payment orchestration library

## When to choose
- you need to support or switch between multiple payment processors without rewriting integration code
- you want a stateless, embeddable payments library with no data storage or logging
- you want battle-tested connector logic maintained by the Hyperswitch team

## When to avoid
- you need a full payment orchestration platform with routing, vaulting, and a control center (use Hyperswitch itself)
- you only ever use a single processor and are happy with its native SDK
- you need a hosted service rather than an embedded library

## Facets
- artifact type: library
