What is Syncada from Visa?

MINNEAPOLIS--()--Syncada’s director of business strategy, Dean Hahn-Carlson, stands where innovative thought and industry expertise converge. Recognized as one of Minnesota’s Top 500 Inventors in this month’s issue of Twin Cities Business, Dean has influenced the evolution of Syncada's online network and its creative capabilities for more than a decade.

Dean began his financial services experience by implementing payment initiatives at U.S. Bank, as well as designing and testing the major merchant acquiring system now operated by Elavon. In 1996, Dean invented the concepts and filed the first patents for an online transportation platform. Today, this technology allows Syncada participants to collaborate for invoice processing, financing, and payment. Since then, he has been an integral part of the organization, contributing to business planning and strategy, business analysis, product development, and network management.

Syncada connects banks, buyers, and suppliers to facilitate global trade. By automating invoice processing and payment, participants increase efficiency and reduce errors. Syncada’s robust business intelligence services enable participants to analyze trends to increase operational efficiency. Buying organizations using Syncada can assist suppliers with optimizing working capital through integrated financing capabilities.
