About Lopay

Join Lopay -- the fastest-growing fintech changing how businesses get paid.

We already power over 50,000 active UK businesses, with a rapidly expanding base in the US. Next stop: Europe and South America. This is your chance to be part of one of the most innovative and ambitious companies in the country.

Every card payment in a bar, cafe, or shop costs a business money. Lopay changes that. We offer the lowest rates in the UK -- and even a way for businesses to pay 0% fees. Add instant payouts, cash advances of up to 250k, and a free rewards business card, and it's no wonder we're rated #1 on Trustpilot in our space.

We exist to boost businesses by lowering costs and giving them immediate access to their hard-earned money. In today's climate of rising prices, that's a lifeline.

We're looking for people with drive, passion, and pride in what they do. People who won't stand by while businesses lose margin unnecessarily. If that sounds like you, join us -- and help us make every business stronger.

Role Overview

The Field Sales Executive will be responsible for driving growth of Lopay's face-to-face payments solutions across primarily London and the wider southeastern region. This role primarily consists of receiving warm leads from our Facebook ads, which promote our product and ask potential customers to fill in a lead form, asking their details and turnover.

It's your job to ring these leads/sms/whatsapp as quick as possible, set-up a meeting and go in store and close them as a customer.

Our product/solution is available on the App Store. They need to download the app, submit their id and proof of address to verify and then can begin taking payments there and then by using the tap-to-pay function right on their phone. Alternatively, they can order a card-reader through the app.

You will need to be attentive to leads as quickly as they come in, contact and follow-up to set a meeting, go in-store to the address they provide if no response, and fully display what they need to use as a product and close them and manage the relationship to make sure they continue using Lopay.

Because as mentioned, if they don't use us, they are losing money.

Spare time will be spent generating new opportunities through prospecting and local networking. Any business that takes in-person card payments, like all of the stores of a high street could be a potential customer.

Key Responsibilities

Your main responsibility is to convert warm leads which come through our Facebook/Instagram ads asking for a site visit into sales quickly and a high rate of conversion Generate leads (cold outreach, referrals, local networks) and convert them through to close Present and demonstrate payment solutions tailored to customer needs.
