MassPay co-founder Ran Grushkowsky will assume the role of CEO on January 1, 2026.
The move aims to drive the next phase of global expansion for the payout orchestration platform.
Grushkowsky is a serial fintech entrepreneur with expertise in cross-border payments, compliance, and scaling financial platforms.
Former CEO and co-founder Jeffrey Katz will transition to the board, providing strategic guidance.
MassPay's platform currently serves over 230 countries and supports more than 70 currencies.
The company processes tens of thousands of monthly identity verifications through its embedded compliance infrastructure.
The CEO transition represents a strategic shift from foundation-building to accelerated scaling. Former CEO Jeffrey Katz, who led the company for six years, will remain on the board to offer strategic guidance. Under his leadership, MassPay established its core platform and achieved significant growth, particularly in the last year, as demand for instant global payout capabilities surged. The company now facilitates payouts across a vast global network, processing a high volume of compliance verifications monthly.
Ran Grushkowsky steps into the CEO role with a background that aligns directly with MassPay's expansion goals. A serial entrepreneur with over two decades of experience, he has a proven track record in building, scaling, and exiting fintech ventures, including the sale of USend to Inter & Co. His expertise spans cross-border payments, compliance (AML/KYC), embedded finance, and fraud prevention—key pillars for a global payout platform. This experience positions him to navigate the complexities of international growth and product development.
The company's stated mission under its new leadership is to make instant global payouts as seamless as local payments. Grushkowsky emphasized the uniqueness of MassPay's platform in delivering the speed and orchestration capabilities required by modern, globally competitive businesses. The focus will remain on combining instant settlement with built-in compliance and reliability, enabling marketplaces, gig platforms, and other businesses to disburse funds via bank transfer, digital wallets, cards, or cryptocurrency through a single API.
The appointment of a technically adept co-founder as CEO signals MassPay's intent to deepen its product-led growth and operational excellence. With a robust foundation in place and increasing global demand for streamlined payout solutions, the leadership change is poised to steer MassPay through its next chapter of expansion, aiming to reshape how businesses manage disbursements on a worldwide scale.
