Billi Jo Wright will lead a heavy-hitting team adding talent to manage Payrix’s payment facilitator program, merchant and transactional risk, and further expand the platform’s security and compliance capabilities. “With where the market is heading, I see so much opportunity in our platform. We have a flexible, sophisticated system that is every risk manager’s dream, but we haven’t even begun tapping into its full potential,” Wright noted. “Maintaining regulatory and card association compliance can be complicated and requires a significant investment in resources and technology. With Payrix, we will not only have a streamlined, frictionless customer experience, we’ll also streamline the risk and compliance burden for our partners by doing the heavy lifting for them. I’m excited to shape our vision for a strong risk culture centered around business enablement.”
