Business Development Representative (BDR)

About this role

At Centrapay, we're on a mission to democratise payments. Outdated card technology leaves merchants paying high fees, gives consumers limited choice, and keeps traditional money and new digital value in separate worlds. We're changing that by building a universal acceptance layer that lets any modern digital wallet or asset transact at any connected point of sale.

Our vision is simple: moving value should be as easy and efficient as sharing information. As commerce shifts towards digital assets and mobile-first experiences, we're building the foundation for what comes next.

Join us in building the future of commerce.
