Our Story

Leapset is a next generation commerce platform that connects small merchants to their customers in new and innovative ways. It bridges the gap between the online/mobile consumer and the offline merchants, simultaneously making the interaction more efficient and elegant for the consumer and driving more revenue and cost savings to the merchant.

Leapset was founded in 2011 and spun out of Monvia, a product innovations company that has built dozens of innovative products for companies such as Chase, Yahoo!, Citi, Deluxe, AOL, as well as independent internal projects.

The Leapset team holds over 19 patents, includes leadership that made Y! Finance the #1 financial property on the web, a founding employee of Virtusa (Nasdaq: VRTU), and the team that built the London Stock Exchange platform.
