“Basis Theory is the world’s first payments infrastructure company built from the ground up with a data security and usability mindset. It is our belief that companies should control their customer’s payments,” said Colin Luce, Co-Founder & CEO, Basis Theory. “We are excited to join other Nacha Preferred Partners focused on data security and usability as keys to protecting and improving the ACH Network.”
