The story

Paystand began as a B2B payments platform built on a blockchain-backed network to enable zero-fee bank-to-bank payments and AR automation. Following the Teampay acquisition, it expanded into a full CFO suite spanning AR, AP, expense management, corporate cards, and FX payouts, positioning itself as agentic, on-chain finance infrastructure for mid-market enterprises.
