Job Summary
About GetPaid
The GetPaid team owns the ways Wise Business customers ask for money and get paid without either side needing to write code. Our products include Payment Links Invoicing and QuickPay with QR codes.
Invoicing is our biggest opportunity today. Too many businesses create an invoice but do not complete the journey through to payment. Others receive the money but have to match it back to the invoice themselves. We want businesses to know what they have been paid what is still outstanding and what they need to do next.
Our mission is to close the gap between invoice created and invoice paid. That means improving invoice creation and publishing making it easier for customers to pay and helping businesses match and reconcile the money they receive.
