ABOUT ALEX BURGIN

I love helping small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) achieve their dreams!Throughout my career, I’ve worked with and led large teams that empower SMBs through better payment solutions. Now, as the Founder of Canyon Payments, I help businesses implement and optimize payment systems that save money, improve efficiency, and drive growth.Previously, I led Authorize.Net, one of the original online payment companies, overseeing a platform that supported 430K+ merchants, thousands of partners, and processed over $150B annually in payments. My experience also includes launching Authorize.Net internationally as part of a UK-based ex-pat assignment, a career-defining experience that expanded my global expertise in SMB payments.I believe in transparent leadership, a “doer” mindset, and driving real results. Now, through Canyon Payments, I bring that same commitment to helping businesses integrate seamless, cost-effective payment solutions.I am passionate about leveraging data-driven insights to help SMBs thrive.I also love connecting with business owners, learning from their challenges, and sharing insights. I’ve spoken alongside the Administrator of the SBA and contributed to various media discussions on SMB growth and payment trends.I currently reside in Utah, where I take full advantage of the incredible outdoor activities it offers.
