One of the product principles of Mercury is the little details are where quality shows up. That's why we added a way to get your company's EIN from the Settings menu One of those small "where do I find that?" tasks made that little bit easier credit: Rotem Shaked

We built Payment Requests as a tool to help people get paid. It's a simple idea, with some Mercury magic added: each requests creates a bank acct that auto-routes it to your main account, giving a layer of security. This is what Mercury is all about: banking built better

At least 80% of Americans live in a vibe desert. They have to drive upwards of 20 minutes to catch a vibe, and many have no idea where their next vibe will come from

The Mercury payments flow is pretty sweet. (Payer causes Mercury to send a link to a business they need to pay, which lets them fill in name, entity, W-9, bank details, etc or prefill most of that by signing into their own Mercury account. Payer then can send within Mercury.)

To commemorate Mercury’s 5 year anniversary we took a full page ad in the Sunday NYT. Thanks to all the 615+ incredible people for their continuous dedication to the product and customers. And for making it a great place to work.

One thing we think a lot about Mercury: products are better when they have some fun in them When a founder closes a SAFE and the investment lands, we might not be there to high-five and congratulate everyone but we’ll definitely bring the confetti (s/o Jonathan Simcoe Rotem Shaked)
