What is Super Payments?

Our mission is to power free payments forever and everywhere for businesses, and more rewarding shopping for customers so that everyone wins. By making payments free and then passing on the savings to customers we are disrupting the payments industry while increasing sales and customer loyalty.

We are growing fast, with 1,000+ businesses and 400,000+ customers using our service, and revolutionising traditional payment companies with a unique, 10x better proposition.

Led by former CEO of Funding Circle, Samir Desai, we have raised over $30m of funding from leading venture capital and angel investors including Accel, Union Square Ventures and Localglobe and high profile angels.

Our Values - Our culture is our DNA. it defines our mission, our goals, how we operate and communicate on a day to day basis, and how we attract and hire great talent:

  • Be customer obsessed.

Everything begins here. We only succeed if consumers and retailers succeed.

Faster, better, cheaper for the customer. 

  • Move fast.

Build, iterate and learn quickly - always think of the automated solution first. 

A slow decision is worse than a wrong decision. 

  • Own it.

Think big, start small and power through problems to get it done.

A small group of committed people can change the world.

  • Be open.

Build open, honest and respectful relationships with each other. 

Transparency and integrity builds trust.

  • Win together.

Great work cannot be achieved alone. Bring the humility and leave the ego at the door.

It’s better to have a hole than an arsehole.

Our Technology

We leverage the latest tools and technologies to create a seamless, customer-centric digital experience. Our core stack is built around Node.js, TypeScript, and NestJS, with a front-end powered by React and ReactNative. We deploy using AWS cloud services and Expo services. Infrastructure as Code is fundamental to our approach, and we use Terraform to manage our cloud resources.

However, it’s not just about the technology. We are passionate about continuous delivery, automation, and rapid iteration. Our deployment pipeline is fully automated, covering everything from branching, building, testing, and shipping to monitoring and alerting—allowing us to focus on delivering value to our customers.
