Transaction Trending EP6: How Software is Changing the Payments Industry with Ben Goretsky, CEO, USAePay
3-28-2018
On today’s episode, Jason explores the software-driven changes that the payments industry has experienced. One-click ordering, voice commerce, mobile payments; from garage-door startups to the world’s largest technology companies, software companies have fundamentally shifted the way our economy – and the payments that enable it – function.
Jason is joined by Ben Goretsky, CEO of USAePay. Ben has been active in the payments software business since he was 18 years old, founding USAePay with his brother after starting his degree in computer science at Cal State Northridge in 1998. Since those early dorm room days, Ben has built USAePay into a major payment gateway and software provider, connecting merchants with payment solutions that use software to enable advanced capabilities. As CEO, Ben also oversees USAePay’s partnerships with VARs, ISVs and other new players, an emerging industry trend that has been quickly changing the landscape of payments.
Ben manages IT at USAePay and is an expert in software – both from the development side and the payments business side. He was recently honored in ETA first-ever 40 Under 40 class.
