Ricerca co- founder

Ciao a tutti,

sto cercando un terzo co-founder per GivPay, un progetto fintech/Web3 early-stage che vuole rendere i pagamenti in stablecoin semplici come un’app tradizionale.

Abbiamo già un prototipo e un piccolo team composto da:
- me, lato visione, prodotto, strategia e fundraising;
- un co-founder tecnico, lato prototipazione e sviluppo.

Cerchiamo una terza persona che possa coprire una di queste aree:

  1. Tecnico fintech/payments/blockchain
    Esperienza o forte competenza in pagamenti, wallet, stablecoin, crypto infrastructure, merchant tools o architetture scalabili.

  2. Business/fundraising/partnership
    Capacità di parlare con investitori, acceleratori, advisor, partner strategici e potenziali clienti B2B/merchant.

Non cerchiamo un freelancer o un semplice collaboratore, ma una persona con mentalità da founder, disponibile a entrare in fase iniziale per equity e a contribuire alla costruzione del core team.

Se sei interessato, o conosci qualcuno che potrebbe esserlo, scrivimi pure in privato.

Grazie!

Have a question for the merchants in this sub

For merchants with frequent card payments or international customers: do payment fees, FX costs, or settlement timing actually affect your margins, or are they too small to care about?

I’m especially curious about businesses with regular transactions between $100 and $5,000 or more , not only very high-ticket sales.

Looking for a 3rd co-founder for an early-stage stablecoin payments startup

Hi everyone,

We’re building an early-stage fintech/Web3 startup focused on making stablecoin payments simpler, more practical, and more accessible for everyday users and merchants.

The goal is to create a payment experience that feels familiar to non-crypto users, while using stablecoin rails to improve speed, cost transparency, and settlement flexibility for businesses.

We are currently two co-founders:

I focus on product vision, positioning, fundraising strategy, partnerships, and go-to-market.

My co-founder is more technical and is helping with the product/prototype side.

We already have a working prototype, but we are still very early. We are not funded yet, so I want to be fully transparent: this is not a salaried role right now. We are looking for someone who would join as a real co-founder, with an equity-based structure to be discussed.

The person we’re looking for could be one of two profiles:

1. Technical co-founder / fintech-payments builder
Someone with experience or strong ability in fintech, payments, crypto infrastructure, wallets, stablecoins, compliance-aware architecture, or scalable backend/product engineering.

2. Business / fundraising / strategic co-founder
Someone strong in investor relations, partnerships, fundraising, fintech strategy, network building, or go-to-market. Ideally someone who can help us become more fundable and open doors to the right people.

What matters most:

You are serious and execution-focused.

You understand that this is early and risky.

You can bring credibility, skills, or network that the team does not currently have.

You are comfortable building before everything is perfect.

You care about fintech, payments, stablecoins, or financial infrastructure.

We are not looking for someone who only wants to “advise” from a distance. We’re looking for a real third person who wants to help shape the company from the beginning.

We are keeping some product details private for now, but happy to share more in a private conversation with the right person.

If this sounds interesting, feel free to DM me with a short intro, your background, and what kind of role you think you could play.
