Founder Meetup: Unlocking Payments 💰💡

Join us for an insightful gathering focused on a common pain point for many YC companies: the disparity between authorization rates and payment success rates. One company reported a startling $1.4M gap in their $6M processing volume – let's uncover where you're potentially losing revenue!

This event offers a unique opportunity for founders to discuss payment challenges often overlooked, metrics that remain untracked, and the financial gaps that rarely come to light unless explored deeply.

Who Should Attend?

This event is tailored for any business engaging with customer payments via card or ACH. If you're concerned about missing revenue in your payment flows, this meet-up is your chance to get clarity. Especially beneficial for:

• Subscription or recurring billing models (SaaS, AI applications, e-commerce)
• Businesses with customers outside the U.S. (cross-border issues may lead to more declines and disputes)
• Teams lacking a designated payments expert

What You'll Learn:

• The distinction between dispute and chargeback rates
• How much a single chargeback can actually cost—up to 3x its face value
• Key data segmentation strategies to identify lost revenue
• Benchmarks comparing healthy businesses against those silently suffering losses
