Bluesnap Named to Inc. Magazine’s 37th Annual List of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies—the Inc. 5000

BOSTON--()--Inc. magazine today revealed that BlueSnap, an online payments technology company, is No. 4133 on its 37th annual Inc. 5000, the most prestigious ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. The list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent small businesses. Microsoft, Dell, Domino’s Pizza, Pandora, Timberland, LinkedIn, Yelp, Zillow, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.

“At BlueSnap, continuous, rapid growth is built into our DNA, and our success is a direct result of our customers’ ability to grow their businesses, which is why we strive to pass this mindset onto them,” said Ralph Dangelmaier, CEO of BlueSnap. “As an industry leader, it’s important for BlueSnap to be positioned alongside such a distinguished list of organizations as we continue to innovate and deliver on our promise of helping mid-market businesses increase sales and reduce costs.”

Not only have the companies on the 2018 Inc. 5000 (which are listed online at Inc.com, with the top 500 companies featured in the September issue of Inc., available on newsstands August 15) been very competitive within their markets, but the list as a whole shows staggering growth compared with prior lists. The 2018 Inc. 5000 achieved an astounding three-year average growth of 538.2 percent, and a median rate of 171.8 percent. The Inc. 5000’s aggregate revenue was $206.1 billion in 2017, accounting for 664,095 jobs over the past three years.

Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000.

“If your company is on the Inc. 5000, it’s unparalleled recognition of your years of hard work and sacrifice,” says Inc. editor in chief James Ledbetter. “The lines of business may come and go, or come and stay. What doesn’t change is the way entrepreneurs create and accelerate the forces that shape our lives.”

The annual Inc. 5000 event honoring the companies on the list will be held October 17 to 19, 2018, at the JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort, in San Antonio, Texas. As always, speakers include some of the greatest innovators and business leaders of our generation.

This is the latest recognition for BlueSnap which was recently named Best eCommerce Platform/Gateway at the 2018 CNP Expo and the Best 30 Companies of the Year by CIO Bulletin. These recent recognitions, in addition to being named to the 2018 Inc. 5000 list, are a direct result of the efforts of BlueSnap’s dedicated employees and continued customer growth over the past year.
