Six practice areas. One independent perspective.

Every engagement is fixed-fee, senior-led, and scoped to a measurable business outcome. We pick up the phone.

01

Payments Strategy

We design payment programs that match your customer behavior — not the marketing deck of your processor. Card, ACH, RTP, wallets and cross-border, evaluated honestly.

  • Processor RFP & migration
  • Interchange optimization study
  • Auth-rate diagnostics
  • Cross-border & FX design
02

Risk & Compliance

BSA/AML, KYC, sanctions, and PCI DSS — translated into engineering tickets, policy documents, and trained operators. Built for examiners, not for show.

  • AML program build & refresh
  • PCI DSS readiness
  • Regulatory exam preparation
  • Policy & procedure libraries
03

Vendor Selection & Due Diligence

We evaluate processors, BaaS partners, KYC vendors and orchestration platforms with no affiliate relationships. Our scorecard lives in your repo, not in our drawer.

  • Independent vendor scorecards
  • Reference call programs
  • Contract & SLA negotiation
  • Transition planning
04

Operational Finance

Reconciliation, dispute management, chargeback playbooks and treasury workflows for teams outgrowing the manual phase but not yet ready for a full ERP migration.

  • Reconciliation design
  • Dispute operations playbook
  • Treasury workflow build
  • KPI & reporting design
05

Digital Transformation

From paper-bound back office to cloud-native finance, on a timeline you can actually staff. We co-write the roadmap and stay through the first ship.

  • Finance systems roadmap
  • Process automation pilots
  • Change management coaching
  • Vendor consolidation
06

Fractional Advisory

Senior fintech leadership on a monthly retainer. Board prep, vendor calls, examiner briefings, hiring loops — included. The cheapest VP you'll ever hire.

  • Monthly retainer engagements
  • Board & investor briefings
  • Hiring loop participation
  • Steering committee seat
How we work

A four-step process that respects your calendar.

01 · Discovery

A 30-minute call to understand the question behind the question. No charge, no commitment.

02 · Scope

A one-page proposal with deliverables, timeline and a fixed fee. We do not bill by the hour.

03 · Deliver

Weekly working sessions. Real artifacts — runbooks, scorecards, tickets — not slides.

04 · Sustain

Optional retainer to keep the change alive after the engagement ends.
