VizyPay was recognized for its one-of-a-kind, people-centered company culture. Dedicated to diversity and inclusivity, VizyPay hires individuals based on attitude, drive and effort – not based on a resume or experience in the payments space. As a result, 95% of its staff is from outside the payments industry and 60% are diverse minorities. Its executive team leads with authenticity and transparency, fostering a fun and positive work environment where new ideas are welcomed and genuine relationships are built. To keep pace with the company’s outstanding success, VizyPay is undergoing a hiring blitz and added 52 to its team of 114 full-time employees in the last three months. This growth enables VizyPay to further expand its innovation and capabilities to better serve its 12,000 merchants across the country.
“You can’t do anything if you don’t have a thriving company culture and people who believe in it,” said Austin Mac Nab, Co-Founder and CEO of VizyPay. “Being intentional about our culture puts VizyPay in the position to better help our merchants in small towns across rural America because we’re motivated to succeed together. This honor showcases the best of #TeamVizy, highlighting our strong internal relationships, our dedication to clients and devotion to the whole company.”
This annual survey and awards program is designed to identify, recognize and honor the best employers in the financial technology industry. Companies recognized on this year’s list operate in and serve companies and consumers in a wide range of financial services including banking and mortgages, insurance, payments and financial advisory. The 2022 list included 50 companies and was published by Arizent brands American Banker, National Mortgage News, PaymentsSource, Financial Planning and Digital Insurance.

The second part consisted of an employee survey to measure the employee experience. The combined scores determined the top companies and the final ranking.
