Vancouver, BC, May 22, 2015--(T-Net)--Hyperwallet Systems Inc. (“Hyperwallet”), a global leader in the payments industry, recently announced Michael Ting has joined the company as Senior Vice President, Digital Markets.
In this role, Ting will work alongside Hyperwallet's senior management team to develop commercial and strategic partnerships with emerging growth companies in the digital marketplace sector. Ting will report to Peter Burridge, President & Chief Commercial Officer of Hyperwallet.
Ting will bring more than two decades of payments products and financial services experience to the Hyperwallet team.
As the former Head of Payment Services for oDesk (now Elance-oDesk), Ting has deep industry experience in global marketplaces, payments product management, operations, and business development.
Prior to oDesk, Ting managed online payment products at Obopay, Inc., as well as serving in a variety of strategic partnership and operational roles for WR Hambrecht + Co., PayPal, and Barclays Global Investors.
“Mass payments remain one of the biggest unsolved problems for growing companies in the digital marketplaces space,” says Ting. “Many companies are looking for technology-based solutions that enable them to send thousands of payments anywhere in the world in a simple, frictionless, and user-centric manner. I believe Hyperwallet's deep payment network and modern technology creates tremendous opportunities for digital marketplaces to deliver value to their vast network of payees in a scalable and cost-efficient manner.”
