SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

You don't run into anybody else.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

You know what?

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

I never communicate my transaction volume.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

And that's because a couple of things.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

We compete against big banks.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

And big banks, it's this funny thing in fintech, which is the category that we're in.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

And I think companies kind of want to either...

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

beat you or join you, right?

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

And I think we're still in the banks trying to beat us instead of joining us.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

And the transaction volume number, the banks will report their number from all their customers, regardless of the transaction.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

So no matter what I say, seems really small, but we're way into double digits in billions of dollars.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

Yeah, I think that's fair.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

I think it's really hard to have that kind of network effect, right?

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

To turn the supplier.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

So now in our network, we have 2,500 customers and 300,000 suppliers.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

Suppliers are customers though, right?

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

I mean, they have to have a good experience.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

They need to understand who's paid them, how much they've been paid, when they've been paid.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

They need to be able to reconcile the money they received to the information they received.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
852: FinTech: Businesses Process $10b+ In Supplier Payments Through NvoicePay

So suppliers are very much part of the equation, but I think it's really hard to grow with a network effect through suppliers.
