Hey, my name is Eduardo Lopez 👋🏽.
I started this newsletter for anyone interested in learning more about fintech and payments.
Working at fintech startups for the past few years, I’ve noticed that there’s always a huge learning curve for new hires that are new to the industry. Even after years of experience, I’m still learning new concepts every day.
If you try searching up these concepts on Google, most of the articles are written by companies that sell products related to the search term. Makes it a little hard to trust the information when all the blogs basically amount to “this is why what we do is the best way to do things.”
At Lithic, we purposely write our content to be vendor agnostic for this very reason. Check out some of these guides, they’re pretty helpful.
This is the type of content I’ll be writing in this newsletter — simple explanations about fintech and payments, and resources for those that work in the industry.
If this sounds interesting to you, hit the subscribe button and you’ll receive an email every time I drop a new article.
