    Founder | Ceo
    Paypr.Work [ˈPeɪpəwəːK] Mar 2022 - Present
    London , Gb
    Years of experience working with large, small, established corporates and Fintechs has led to this point… i.e. taking the leap to quit the corporate world and set up my own business🚀…Paypr.work🖇️ [pronounced paperwork😉]I am first and foremost passionate about payments and really fortunate to have found a niche in a continuously evolving and fast paced industry! At the core of my belief, I have hardly seen that one single solution can meet all merchants requirements. Payments is complex and even after 14+ years in the industry, I cannot claim to know it all myself. At Paypr.work, we believe that understanding the nuances dictated by specific verticals and markets takes years to build and cannot be faked👀. The payments ecosystem has got a lot to offer… and we are here to help sharing independent, honest and transparent perspectives to merchants and the Fintech community through advisory consulting, payments training and content strategy services. Helping businesses navigating the payments complexity, searching, sourcing, understanding their options, negotiating best terms and supporting with the full end-to-end implementation of their payments facility is what we do at Paypr.work… days in… days out… with a smile and an 'out of the box' thinking mindset 😃. We work organically with payments strategists across many specific fields to ensure our knowledge is up to date and relevant (beyond the industry hype)!Learning is priceless. I personally have a keen interest in new technology/innovation and as such diving into the AI/NFT/Crypto/Blockchain developments keeps feeding my curiosity whilst keeping me awake at night😅. Always open to making new connections, Linkedin being my only community of choice for that. Feel free to reach out whether you have a project, may be thinking of one or just want a sounding board to run an idea past…🤷‍♀️Sandra@paypr.workhttps://calendly.com/sandra-mianda/payments-consultation-free
