The future of AI for embedded payments

Dear vertical software operator, 
‍
Did you know that payments adoption is the single biggest revenue opportunity for most vertical SaaS platforms?
‍
78% of them are targeting an adoption rate of 71% or higher. 
Only 25% are achieving it. 
‍
The solution isn’t a marketing plan. A price discount. Or a feature. 
‍
It’s a person: an experienced payments leader.
‍
Only 1 out of 5 vertical software platforms have a dedicated payments leader in the C-Suite. And the ones that don’t? They’re lagging behind on the payments performance metrics that drive volume and revenue. 
‍
But there’s a problem: a real shortage of experienced Heads of Payments who've scaled embedded payments programs before and can do it again. 
‍
That's the gap Max fills.
‍
Max gives you direct access to that same knowledge and expertise, on demand. No 6-month executive search required. 
‍
Max doesn't stop at knowledge. 
‍
He runs execution, doing the work a payments team would do, so you can compete with the same advantage the best-resourced platforms already have.

What you get with Max

Payments leadership without the headcount

Max is trained on the experience of people who've run payments for decades. He does the work even when you don't know what to ask for. No executive search required.

Max tells you exactly what to focus on

Reporting tells you what you have, but Max tells you exactly what to optimize next and how, so you get real results even if you don't know where to start.

Max doesn't just advise. 
He executes.

Every recommendation comes with the deliverable you'd otherwise have to build yourself. Think product scopes, email campaigns, incentive structures, and even the slides for your next leadership meeting.
