In order to fund my tuition to Chiropractic school, I taught kids karate. My studios grew to over 800 students and I needed a better way to bill then putting numbers onto a plastic box. This billing challenged me to build the world’s first Cloud/SaaS based recurring billing platform. I grew the billing platform into an industry-leading payment gateway that processed hundreds of millions of transactions worth billions of dollars for nearly a hundred thousand merchants. We also developed an end-to-end payment platform with direct processing relationships into VISA, MC, AMEX & Discover. Customers included Wells Fargo, GEICO, Ameriprise Financial and Duncan Donuts. Happy customers was the funding source of SecureNet. I exited SecureNet in 2011 and launched URock. read more
