Supported by TA Associates and General Atlantic, Fintech stands as a foremost leader in this sector. Its flagship product, PaymentSource®, is leveraged by over 250,000 retail and hospitality businesses, and more than 5,000 alcohol distributors and suppliers nationwide. This proven platform automates alcohol invoice payment, streamlines payment collection, and facilitates comprehensive data capture for over 1 million B2B business relationships.

Recognizing the distinct operational hurdles faced by clients engaged in alcohol sales, Fintech has extended its offerings beyond invoice services. This includes scan-based trading capabilities tailored for retail clients and their vendors, along with a dedicated CRM solution crafted to bolster field execution strategies for alcohol suppliers and distributors.
