THE COMPANY

Payrails is an innovative technology company with a team that has many years of experience in the payment industry and a real-life understanding of the merchants’ needs. We have seen the complexity firsthand and we have learnt from all the challenges we’ve faced. Now we want to help leading technology companies around the world to accept payments and build financial services with minimal upfront investments.
Our vision at Payrails is to reimagine payments. We do this by removing heavy reliance on Engineering efforts using composable building blocks that put the control firmly in the hands of our customers.
We are joined in our mission by top tier investors Andreessen Horowitz and HV Capital alongside a great cast of knowledgeable angel investors to enable us to solve the growing complexity of payments. We believe people thrive the most when they are fully aware of what the business is trying to achieve, why it is important to the market and what challenges lie in the way to reaching our goals. In such an environment we believe people can truly excel, grow and enjoy working together. We try hard to be a company where everyone is inspired and feels a sense of responsibility to do the right thing to help us bring our vision to life. Succeeding with us is about finding solutions to the most pressing problems and executing effectively.
