Co-Founder and CEO Yoyo Chang commented, “I am super delighted to welcome Sophie into our team. She has an incredible amount of experience scaling products and building out operational processes. I am honoured that she has chosen to join us, and I know she’ll be instrumental as we expand across the UK.”
“I’m thrilled to be joining the incredibly talented team at KodyPay at this exciting time of rapid growth.” Sophie Haagensen commented. ” In-person payments continue to lag online payments for speed and convenience, and I believe KodyPay has the vision and the execution capability to change this. I’m delighted to join them in this quest, and the opportunity to build and grow another successful FinTech is a genuine privilege.”
