Jeremy Almond, Co-founder & CEOAccording to Almond, with the advent of services like Uber and Lyft, digital technology has become a part of everyone’s life with mobile apps coordinating all of the logistics and magically deducting money once the ride is over. PayStand enables that same-type of seamless transaction experience, but at a commercial level. The company facilitates money to move automatically, sends notification instantly, and verifies or reconciles records in an easily traceable manner across disparate systems all along the supply chain. This results in reduced transaction costs and lower days sales outstanding while eliminating unnecessary fees, automating crucial error prone activities, and improving customer experience.
Almond and his team of experts at PayStand believe that blockchain can transform and ultimately democratize the whole underlying system of the commercial financial service industry. The company is depending on blockchain in a number of areas in B2B including payments, smart contracts, settlements, and perhaps most interestingly using blockchain to enhance the security and audit of transactional information.

PayStand has pioneered their next-gen payment technology with ecash, echeck, and a bank transfer network, and have also built a full-fledged processing gateway for traditional payment networks like purchase cards, debit cards, and credit cards. This technology allows accounts receivable/payable teams to immediately use PayStand for all of their billing and payment workflows without requiring a complicated migration process. The company’s unique offerings can be implemented anywhere, without disrupting their business process, while driving immediate value in enabling faster time to cash, automating inefficient billing/payment work, and dramatically lowering transaction costs.
Almond believes it is still early days in the digital transformation of commercial financial services. He asserts that mass adoption of technologies like blockchain will not happen overnight, but with PayStand digital payment network, businesses have an opportunity to get started immediately. “We no longer say the ‘checks in the mail’ in our personal life, there’s an app for that. It is time for businesses to make the same transition and realize they can save billions in what they do.”
