Notes from the desk: Welcome to this month’s Quarterly Review and a new year! The Quarterly Review is one of the only media pieces that allow readers to track improvements through time. It’s a chance for the industry to learn about what goes on behind an FI’s four walls and how leadership manages their priorities.
And a review mandates a check-in, as I like to say, so enjoy reading about how the exec in the hot seat today overcame challenges, and brought her vision to life.
In this edition we focus on Jeff Pomeroy, SVP, Payments, Services, & Platforms at PayPal.
Executive Summary
Enterprise payments are the engine behind modern commerce. As businesses scale globally, they need payment infrastructure that can keep pace with complexity, volume, and ever-changing merchant demands. PayPal, one of the most recognizable names in payments, is doubling down on its enterprise capabilities to serve the world’s largest merchants.
In today’s story, the spotlight is on a PayPal executive with three decades of payments experience, who shares how the company is unifying its B2B platform across markets, forging partnerships to bring enterprise-grade payments into physical retail, and building value-added services.
The Full Review
[Pomeroy]: When I joined PayPal in 2024, I stepped into a challenge that felt both familiar and fresh. After three decades in payments – from the early days of developing the first consumer e-commerce services in the 90s, to processing payments at scale at Blackhawk, to building issuing and leading the North American product team at Adyen, and creating a brand-new unified cloud-based platform at Fiserv – I knew the opportunity this time was about harnessing PayPal’s tremendous assets and momentum to bring our enterprise payment and service capabilities to full global scale.
PayPal Enterprise Payments (the artist formerly known as Braintree) sits at the center of that effort. We already had incredible technology, deep merchant relationships, and a trusted global brand when I came on board.
