Josh Edis, Co-founder of APRIL has always been fascinated by how consumers interact with digital platforms and how brands can utilize the platforms to create more meaningful and impactful experiences between customers and brands.

Limepay has re-branded to April and their vision has always come from a place driven by a desire to solve meaningful and impactful problems. April's business model has been evolving from a transaction payment platform to looking like a software service or SaaS business.

Problem:
The problem that April aims to solve is the friction at the last mile of the customer experience, particularly at the checkout process. Some brands and financial institutions provide confusing and messy checkouts, which affects the overall customer experience.

Solution:
The genesis of April is around moving the friction and bringing businesses closer to their customers by enabling amazing customer experiences. April is highly designed to be very friendly, configurable, and flexible while providing all underlying security standards.

One big piece of advice:
Make sure you're working in line with the best people, the best team, and the best culture who are there for the long hall.
