Pay Swifter
Stripe for Cannabis
What they do
Cannabis businesses struggle to accept and manage compliant digital payments and payouts due to industry-specific restrictions and complexities.
Swifter provides payment software and APIs, including ACH, that enable cannabis companies to accept payments, send payouts, and manage transactions.
Cannabis dispensaries, multi-state operators (MSOs), and cannabis marketplaces use it to process payments and payouts.
Founders
I started my career working as a securitization lawyer at Clifford Chance, one of the world's largest law firms. I then consulted for the Finance Ministry of India, Google and Uber - steadily transitioning from law to regulatory advisory to strategy. I started Swifter (YCW20) after leaving Uber. We built ACH APIs for a B2C use-case (cannabis) and were acquired by the Shopify for Cannabis - Treez. I spent the last 18 months at Treez as Director-Payments. I'm now looking to build/work in credit.
