Thanks for considering this role. On this page we've got three quick things:
Tuza is building an exchange for payment pricing to give businesses access to the most competitive rates for their payment terminals. Changing payment providers is broken: a cornershop turning over £300k a year could save £5k+ a year by changing payment provider, but they don't.
For businesses, it's lengthy, lacks transparency, and often costly to switch. For providers, finding customers and helping them switch is manual and old-fashioned. It's an industry crying out for change.
Tuza turns a week-long switching process into minutes, giving business owners their pick of the best rates from the likes of Worldpay, Barclaycard, and Natwest, saving them thousands of pounds a year in the process. All at zero cost for the business owner.
And the really exciting part? Later in 2024, we're launching our own card machine. It'll be the first card machine where you can change bank, without changing device. We're bringing the unlocked phone-moment to card payments. With Tuza, you'll never need to feel the pain of switching again.
We've raised £5.5m+ (shh not public yet) from exceptional fintech investors, including Northzone (original backers of Zettle, Trustpilot, Klarna) and Connect (first investor into Typeform, Citymapper). Angels are from Apple, Stripe, Visa, Wise etc.
Square, Sumup and Zettle have been hitting small businesses for years, but struggled to break into the 1m+ retailers who do £200k to £10m in annual card turnover. It's this group that have been neglected by the banks, and we're excited for you to help us transform their experience with payments.
