The leading all-in-one payments API provider ranks in the top 17% of Inc.'s prestigious list


Today, ORLANDO, Fla., Aug. 19, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inc. Magazine ranked Stax by Fattmerchant at No. 815 on its annual list of the nation's 5000 fastest-growing private companies. Securing a spot on the Inc. 5000 list mirrors the growth and transformation Stax has undergone this year as the industry’s only all-in-one payments API.

Inc’s list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy's most dynamic segment—its independent small businesses. Intuit, Zappos, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia, and many well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.

"Our passion for growth, innovation, and progress at Stax are what has allowed us to earn our place among our talented peers and is what we attribute our continued success to," said Suneera Madhani, CEO and founder of Stax. "Being placed on this esteemed list for the third year in a row is a true honor, and we look forward to another transformative year as we set our sights on what's next for Stax."

This recognition follows several accolades for Stax this year. Following a metamorphic rebrand at the beginning of 2021, Stax was named the best credit card processing company by U.S. News & World Report's 360 Reviews. Additionally, Stax president Sal Rehmetullah and CEO Suneera Madhani are regional 2021 Entrepreneur of the Year winners. Suneera was also named a Finovate Fintech Woman of the Year finalist – a true testament to Stax's trailblazing leadership team.

Historically, companies on the Inc. 5000 have been very competitive within their markets but 2020 ranked companies also exhibited impressive growth as well. On average, companies on the 2020 Inc. 5000 achieved an incredible three-year average growth of over 500% and a median rate of 165%.
