Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Payment-as-a-service for businesses

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We build a payments-as-a-service platform that enables any business, especially in Latin America, to launch and manage custom payment solutions quickly. Our platform handles processing, integration, and compliance so non-financial companies can accept and offer payments without building infrastructure from scratch.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in New York City, Mexico City, and Miami. After YC, the company would be based primarily in New York and Mexico City.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We chose these locations because the payments market in Latin America is fragmented and underserved, and three of the founders are from this region. New York connects us to investors and global business opportunities, while Mexico City and Miami keep us close to our main customers and market.
