Full job description

Paystand is the world's leading blockchain-enabled B2B payments network, transforming commercial finance into a software-driven, zero-fee, and open ecosystem. Recognized as a CNBC/Statista 2026 World's Top Fintech company, Paystand delivers over a decade of on-chain payments experience to middle and large enterprises.

Paystand's network services more than one million payors that have moved $20+ billion in volume. With its acquisitions of Yaydoo, Teampay and Bitwage, Paystand's full-stack platform includes agentic AI, its USDb stablecoin, and AR/AP solutions on one tightly integrated network. Its non-profit arm, Paystand.org, advances the mission to democratize finance through Bitcoin and blockchain technology.

What We Do

We built the financial system we always thought should exist: zero fees, zero friction, just your money, faster. Blockchain automates receivables and payables, cuts time-to-cash, and turns every transaction into revenue instead of cost.

Why We Do It

The current system takes a cut from the people who build, create, and grow — and calls it the cost of doing business. We don't buy that. Every fee we eliminate compounds into growth. We're here to decentralize finance and hand the power back to the businesses driving the real economy — extended further through Paystand.org's work to democratize finance through Bitcoin and blockchain.

How We Do It

We don't wait for permission or for the industry to catch up — we build the future of finance ourselves, on-chain, in the open. Small moves now, monumental results later.

Join Us

We're not looking for people who want a job in fintech. We're looking for people who want to build what comes after it. Paystand is where you help lead a financial revolution instead of just reading about one.

We stand on change. Come stand with us.

  • Experience working with Microsoft Dynamics, Acumatica or similar Cloud Based ERP solutions is a must.
  • Proven track record of consistently meeting or exceeding sales targets and revenue goals.
  • Strong understanding of payments technology, including merchant services, payment processing, and financial services..
  • Exceptional communication and presentation skills, with the ability to articulate complex concepts in a clear and compelling manner.
  • Strategic thinker with a consultative sales approach and a focus on building long-term client relationships.
  • Self-motivated and results-oriented, with a demonstrated ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment. Startup experience is a plus.
  • Proficiency with CRM software (e.g., Salesforce, Hubspot) and other sales productivity tools.
  • Ability to travel as needed for client meetings, industry events, and conferences.

Perks

  • Compensation ranging from $160,000 to $180,000 OTE, depending on experience and location.
  • Enjoy generous PTO and sick leave, because we believe in balance.
  • 401(k) retirement plan with employer matching.
