Payments pundits tend to say things like “every software company will be a payments company”... but how should software companies really evaluate the payments opportunity?

Andrew Mosawi has helped hundreds of software companies set up and scale their payments businesses, and on this episode he joins host Joshua Silver to share his key insights.

They covered:

  • When to bring in a dedicated payments leader (hint: it’s not a certain ARR or processing volume)
  • Specific questions to help you decide if payments should be a priority right now
  • Why payment provider selection should NOT be the first milestone, and what SaaS leaders need to do before that
  • 3 ways to create value in your software business with payments (and none of them involve being the lowest cost option)
  • The next big embedded fintech opportunity for vertical software companies, and how to prepare for it
