PayMe

For the love of business

We built PayMe for you, the people behind the counter, the lens, and the big ideas that start small.

You love what you do, and we love helping you get there.

Custom-built for business

Practical where it counts.
Human where it matters.

We’ve seen small and medium businesses struggle with outdated tools, hidden fees, and setups cobbled together from mismatched software, paper receipts, and legacy clutter.

That’s why we built PayMe. You get streamlined payments and an expert team by your side.

Founders

Built by people who care

Building breathing room
for your business

We’re a small team of developers, designers, and product thinkers who believe payment systems should empower, not complicate.

We’ve spent years in hospitality, retail, and events, seeing firsthand what businesses really need. That’s why we’re obsessed with clarity, fairness, and great support, the kind you can actually talk to.

Lars Baas

Co-founder & CEO

Lars has spent ten years in payments, combining technical and commercial experience with an entrepreneurial background running and scaling businesses. At Adyen, he worked across technical, partner and commercial roles, gaining a strong understanding of enterprise customers and payment technology.

Co-founder & CPCO

Yeri has spent over ten years in payments, with a background in Point of Sale, secure locker technology and mission critical systems. His technology is used by football stadiums and large venues where failure is never an option, making reliability, redundancy and security fundamental to every product he builds. That same philosophy sits at the core of PayMe.

Our story

The PayMe founders share a history that goes back well before the company. Lars and Melvin built a long standing relationship through Adyen, where Melvin was a partner of Adyen. Lars and Yeri have known each other for over ten years, working together on high volume payment systems for large public events and becoming early adopters of open loop payments in the industry. Those shared experiences in payments, technology and reliability ultimately brought the three together to build PayMe.
