Our take

With payments technology quickly evolving, and numerous digital payments options available, companies must enable their customers to pay easily and in the ways that they want, in order to retain their business. PayNearMe delivers an omnichannel payments platform designed to improve efficiency and drive down the cost of processing payments, as well as increase consumer engagement.

PayNearMe was originally launched in 2009 to process cash payments for retail, proceeding to digitize alongside payments technology in order to provide services across card and mobile transactions. Its platform enables businesses to accept all major payment types including PayPal, Venmo and Apple Pay, as well as cash and card, delivered with the aim of creating positive user experiences that increase satisfaction and hence help build strong business-customer relationships.

PayNearMe is an established player in the payments space, servicing a range of industries including consumer lending and iGaming. The company boasts over 40,000 participating retail locations through partners such as CVS and Wallmart, and has won numerous awards for its steps in innovation.
