Our take
Software as a service (SaaS) is becoming the dominant way for new companies to sell their products. However, there are a number of interlinked tasks to build a great business. For example, setting up trials and licences, insights and analysis, payment gateways, taxes, and internationalisation.
Paddle offers SaaS companies a completely different approach to their payments infrastructure so that fast growth companies don't need to deal with this complicated puzzle. Instead of assembling and maintaining a complex stack of payments-related apps and services, it acts as a Merchant of Record for customers, taking away the pain of payments fragmentation.
Now serving over 4,000 customers, and having entered the unicorn club in 2022, the company has clearly found its share of success. However, the assumption that pandemic-era growth could be sustained, coupled with runaway operational costs, has seen Paddle recently layoff a number of its staff. With this move, it hopes to control and reduce its spend, so as to face the effects of the economic downturn in stronger shape and sustain its future.

Diversity & Inclusion at Paddle
- We want to increase the opportunities for under-represented Paddlers - we are going to partner with third parties to widen our talent pools, and how we create opportunities internally for when new Padders join to give access to further careers and growth
- We’re already proud of the strides we’ve made around gender balance, especially at manager/leadership level and have a rich population of non British employees. Like most companies in our sector there is still much work to be done, but we’re ready and excited to bring about positive change
