Our Founder’s Journey

Over two decades ago, our founder entered the payments industry through a chance opportunity—cold-calling small businesses to set appointments for payment terminal sales. It wasn’t a traditional path: no degree, no corporate training program, just persistence, curiosity, and a willingness to learn by doing.

Why Understanding Payments Matters

That experience led to a successful career in payments, with leadership roles across major financial institutions and fintechs. But throughout that journey, one thing became clear: most people in the industry don’t fully understand how payments work—how money actually moves, who the key players are, and where value is created (or lost) in the ecosystem.

The Payment Practice was built to change that

We provide practical, structured education for professionals who want to deepen their understanding of the payments landscape. Our focus isn’t on buzzwords or surface-level sales tactics — it’s on the infrastructure, economics, and strategy behind modern payment systems.

About The Payment Practice

The Payment Practice was built for people who want to do more than just work in payments — they want to understand it, master it, and build something meaningful around it. 

Our founder didn’t take the typical path. With no college degree and no formal training, his career started with a simple cold-calling job — setting appointments to sell credit card machines. Within six months, he was the top rep. That early opportunity led to leadership roles at major banks and fintech companies, and eventually, to the realization that most people in the industry don’t actually understand how payments work — how money moves, who gets paid, and where the real value lies. 

The Payment Practice was created to close that gap. 

This isn’t a crash course in merchant services. It’s a professional blueprint — built from decades of experience — for people who want to operate at a higher level in fintech, commerce, and financial services. 

  Who it’s for?

The valet

who parks high-end cars and knows every business owner in town — but doesn’t know how to turn those relationships into opportunities 

The hospitality manager

who’s ready to pivot careers and wants a more scalable, future-proof path.

The consultant, SaaS founder, or sales leader

who knows payments is a value lever — but needs to understand how it actually works behind the scenes.

The person

who’s tired of surface-level sales scripts and wants to solve real business problems.

Whether you’re breaking in or leveling up, The Payment Practice teaches you how the payments ecosystem really works — from the technical flow of funds to the commercial models that drive revenue. 

No jargon. No gatekeeping. Just the knowledge, tools, and strategy to turn insight into opportunity — and opportunity into income.
