About Paymentearth

Built on Experience. Driven by Transparency

Paymentearth was founded in 2016 by Jeff Scanlon and Saygın Esener with one clear mission: to bring transparency, fairness, and exceptional service to the foreign exchange industry.

After decades of experience in banking, foreign exchange, and international payments, the founders recognized a common problem. Businesses were often paying hidden markups on international transactions without fully understanding the true cost of moving money across borders. They believed companies deserved a better alternative—one built on honest pricing, expert guidance, and long-term relationships.

Together, Jeff and Saygın combined more than 50 years of industry experience to build Paymentearth around those principles. Jeff’s extensive leadership in banking and financial technology, combined with Saygın’s distinguished career in foreign exchange, deep industry expertise, and long-standing client relationships, helped establish a company dedicated to helping businesses succeed in the global marketplace.

Today, Paymentearth serves companies across a wide range of industries—including manufacturing, distribution, importing, exporting, food and beverage, marine, and wholesale—providing secure international payments, competitive foreign exchange solutions, and personalized support that large institutions often cannot match.

Founded by Jeff Scanlon, CEO & President, and Saygın Esener, Managing Partner, whose combined 50+ years of experience in banking, foreign exchange, and international payments form the foundation of Paymentearth.

Transparency You Can See

At Paymentearth, transparency isn’t a marketing slogan—it’s the foundation of everything we do.

Unlike many traditional providers that build hidden costs into exchange rates, we believe businesses should understand exactly what they are paying. Our pricing model is designed to provide clarity, competitive exchange rates, and the confidence that every international payment is handled fairly and efficiently.

When businesses know their true foreign exchange costs, they can make better financial decisions, improve profitability, and gain greater control over their international operations.

More Than International Payments

Moving money globally is only one part of running a successful business. That’s why our team works closely with every client to understand their payment flows, currencies, suppliers, and long-term objectives.

Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution, we provide dedicated relationship management, responsive customer service, and tailored foreign exchange strategies that help businesses operate more efficiently in an increasingly global economy.

Whether you’re making occasional international payments or managing complex cross-border transactions every day, Paymentearth operates at the pace your business demands—so you can stay focused on growing your company.

Our Commitment

Our mission is simple:

To make international payments more transparent, more efficient, and more valuable for every business we serve.

We believe trust is earned through honesty, expertise, and consistent service. Every client relationship is built on those values, and they continue to guide everything we do as we help businesses navigate global commerce with confidence.

International payments made easy!
