Our Story

How PaymentPop became the most trusted source for payment processor reviews

2015: The Frustration Begins

Our founder, Marcus Reynolds, struggled to find honest reviews when choosing a payment processor for his e-commerce business. After being burned by hidden fees and poor service, he realized the industry needed transparency.

2017: The Idea Takes Shape

Marcus built a simple spreadsheet to track his experiences with different processors and shared it with other business owners. The overwhelming response showed the need for a dedicated review platform.

2019: PaymentPop Launches

With a small team of payment industry veterans and tech experts, we launched the first version of PaymentPop with rigorous verification standards from day one.

2021: Community Grows

We reached 10,000 verified reviews and introduced our proprietary "TrustScore" algorithm to help businesses quickly identify the best processors for their needs.

Today: Industry Leader

PaymentPop is now the most trusted user review platform in the payment processing space, helping thousands of businesses monthly make informed decisions.
