Salary benchmarks
Otta's take
Sam Franklin
CEO of Otta
Paydock is a payments orchestration platform focused on reducing the substantial cost and effort within a merchant’s payments experience. Paydock helps to reduce compliance, technical, and administrative costs, improving the overall payment experience through a set of supportive tooling to remove friction and inefficiency. The result is increased revenue associated with a lower overall cost.
Rob, the Founder and CEO of Paydock, has spent his career consulting for digital merchants who take payments, and discovered that they were drowning in costs and losing control of their customers while they tried to work with the different payment services that are available in the market. Re-empowering the merchants to manage their payment services without being trapped was a big opportunity in the market.
Paydock exists in a crowded market of payment tools for businesses, competing with industry behemoths like Chargebee, Clearpay, and Klarna - one of Europe's fastest growing Unicorns. That said, by leveraging their differences – namely the fact they are fully interoperable and work all the way from the client-side SDK through to card networks and schemes themselves – Paydock may be able to grasp a key position of this growing industry.
