IppoPay, a fintech startup based in Bengaluru, has hired Atish Shelar as its chief operating officer.
“In India, Atish has extensive knowledge and experience in digital payment processors, operations, and sales. “We are ecstatic to have him on board as our COO, a new title in our growing hierarchical structure,” said IppoPay CEO Mohan K.
Shelar has worked in the payments industry for 15 years. He was one of HDFC’s first merchant acquiring and payment gateway team members. He previously worked for BillDesk, Atom (now NTT Data), and M2P Fintech, where he was in charge of product, sales, strategy, and leadership.
“IppoPay is one of the most rapidly expanding offline and online payment companies. Shelar stated, “The company has a strong and promising strategy set for the next three years.”
Coinbase Ventures, Better Capital, and Blume Founders Fund recently invested $2.1 million in the company, which employs around 200 people. M2P Fintech founders Madhu R and Prabhu R, as well as PointOne Capital partner Archana Priyadarshini, took part in the round.
