About Us

Hi, I'm Jake...from State Farm

I started Prepaid Program Management (PPM) in 2017 after watching several Program Managers who had great ideas for payment products struggle with launching.  They had great technology, marketing and product folks, but they needed help on the payments and compliance side of things.  


Because of their lack of knowledge in this space, they had a hard time getting meetings with important vendors such as banks and processors.  They struggled with putting all the technologies together.


I started PPM to help these founders get to market faster so they did not burn all of their investment dollars pre-launch and helped save them millions of dollars in the process.

How We are Different


100% Money Back Guarantee

If you are not happy with our service or product, we will refund 100% of your most recent payment.  We need to earn your business every single day.

No Long Term Contracts

You have enough people wanting to lock you into long term contracts.  We hate those!  We want you to keep doing business with us on a month to month basis because you love working with us and we provide you a ton of value.  If you need to pivot we won’t hold you back because of some contract.

We Systemize Everything

Many Consultants try to build a custom solution with every client or don't create templates as they go.  This costs a lot of your money and eats up a lot of time.  We are different.  We listen to you to understand your program.  Then we start with a template and make tweaks.  This helps you get to market faster with an MVP so you spend your investor’s dollars testing and tweaking, not building.

Excellent Client Support

There are some really good service providers in the Prepaid Industry….but there are many, many really really bad service providers.  We guarantee that you will receive Ritz-Carlton level support from us or your money back.  That’s right!  If we don’t give you great service, we will refund your current month’s fees.

Faster Program Start Ups

We are not going to lie to you.  We cannot get your program up and running in a few weeks or even a month.  No one can.  If they tell you they can, then they are lying.  But we can help you get started faster.  We start by laying out a project plan with all the steps needed throughout the program setup.  Most Program Managers and consultants are slowed down because they don’t know all the steps involved in setting up a program from scratch - we've been building our project plan for years.  In most cases, a partner asks you to fill out a form or make a decision.  However, you have never thought about that question before and need to discuss it with your team.  This takes precious time.  We help you think about all of these questions before they are asked.  This shaves weeks and months off of your timeline...at a time when you have no revenue coming in the door.

Focus on Compliance

It is an unfortunate reality of our business, that compliance needs to be front and center in everything we do.  We are certified in compliance and look for ways to say yes to your ideas instead of saying no to everything.
