Corpay
The company once known for fuel cards now sits inside invoices, hotel bookings, foreign-exchange trades and millions of everyday business purchases. Its next act is a deliberate turn toward corporate payments - with AI, APIs and new settlement rails layered onto an unusually physical financial network.
SUNRATE
SUNRATE is a Singapore-headquartered global payment and treasury management platform for businesses. Founded in 2016, it lets enterprises move money across more than 190 countries and regions in 130+ currencies, collect in 30+ currencies, issue multi-currency commercial cards, and manage FX and treasury through proprietary tools like TreasuryOS - all via a single platform and set of APIs. Backed by investors including Peak XV (formerly Sequoia Capital Southeast Asia) and Prosperity7 Ventures, and a principal member of both Mastercard and Visa, SUNRATE serves e-commerce, travel, logistics, maritime and other cross-border sectors.
Boost Payment Solutions
Boost Payment Solutions is a New York-based fintech that quietly removes the friction from large commercial card payments. Founded in 2009 by payments veteran Dean M. Leavitt, Boost uses patented straight-through processing and a rules-based payment engine to let buyers pay with cards while suppliers get paid automatically, with the data and reconciliation already handled. Operating in dozens of countries and partnered with Visa and Mastercard, Boost has positioned itself as a leading independent infrastructure layer for B2B card payments.
Dean Leavitt
Dean M. Leavitt is the founder and CEO of Boost Payment Solutions, a New York fintech he launched in 2009 to build commercial card and B2B payment rails for large enterprises. A 30-plus-year payments veteran who previously ran public and bankruptcy-rescued processing companies, he spotted a vacuum in the roughly $125 trillion global B2B market and built patented straight-through processing technology now used across 45-plus countries by more than half the Fortune 100. Boost has landed on the Inc. 5000 five times and raised a $22 million Series C led by Invictus Growth Partners in 2021.
Daniel Simon
Daniel Simon is the founder and CEO of Coast, a New York fintech rebuilding the way commercial fleets pay for fuel, maintenance, and everything else that keeps work trucks moving. A software engineer turned Yale-trained lawyer, he co-founded the consumer lender Bread (sold for over $500M in 2020) before turning his attention to plumbers, HVAC installers, and landscapers - the 'real-world' businesses he felt a decade of fintech had ignored. Coast has raised more than $200M from ICONIQ Growth, Accel, Insight Partners, and Synchrony, and runs on Visa rails with an SMS-based driver authentication system that works on flip phones.
