About GetApron

GetApron was founded by a team of entrepreneurs who had spent years developing solutions for global fintech companies. However, there was one significant challenge that remained unsolved: business payments. These payments are crucial for suppliers and businesses alike, yet they can be time-consuming and complex to manage.

This issue affects entrepreneurs from various backgrounds, including florists, financial analysts, brewers, and brand strategists. Imagine the potential impact if these individuals could redirect their time towards innovation, growth, and creation.

To address this problem, we created GetApron as a comprehensive payments platform. Our solution streamlines the payment experience, integrating seamlessly with workflows, consolidating conversations, and transforming hours into minutes. This enables businesses to focus on planning, development, and success.

We are backed by reputable investors, Index Ventures and Bessemer Venture Partners.
