However,
wherever.*
*your customers want to pay, you’re covered. That’s why Stored was founded in 2022.
The Stored story.
Customers find you on Instagram, in a WhatsApp chat or walking past your door, and want to pay right there. Stored started from a simple belief: wherever they find you, you should be able to take their payment, all through one account.

Two founders, one idea.
Danny Howe and Lee Hart leave senior roles at WorldFirst (Alipay) and Clover. They’d both seen it: the way customers buy had changed, but payments hadn’t.

Starting with shoppers.
The first Stored app lets shoppers save what they find on social media and buy it later. It shows us where buying really starts, and where payments let it down.

Why we exist.
Businesses deserve more. Today they juggle separate providers, channels and systems that don’t talk to each other. Our vision is one operating system for your business, where you get paid, manage your money and use your own data to make decisions that help you grow. Payments are where we started, but our commitment is we won’t just help you get paid. We will help you sell more.
Eleven years at WorldFirst (Alipay), joining around employee 50 and rising to Managing Director on the exec team through its sale to Ant Group. He saw first hand how a fintech grows, and how much of that comes down to culture.
Nine years at Clover (Fiserv), from SME Sales Director to General Manager and a seat on the board of First Data Europe. He knows what businesses need from a payments provider, and where they get let down.
They’d be the first to say they didn’t build Stored alone. Everyone who’s joined has shaped it.
One of UK fintech’s success stories: he co-founded WorldFirst, grew it into a cross-border payments leader and sold it to Ant Group (Alipay) for around $650m. As Chairman, he’s backing Stored to do it again.
Six things we hold ourselves to.
Simple, on purpose.
Payments are complicated enough. We build to take effort out of your day.
Pricing you can read.
Clear terms, no surprise charges. If it costs money, you’ll know before you sign.
Wherever you sell.
At the counter, online, by link, by phone or by invoice. One provider for all of it.
Real people, on call.
Call us and you’ll speak to someone who knows your account and wants to fix it.
Paid next working day.
Card payments in your account the next working day, because cash flow can’t wait.
Listen, then build.
