About Teresa Biko

I’m a business development leader with over 20 years of experience in payments and financial services, known for transforming complex, multi-stakeholder challenges into measurable growth. At JPMorgan Chase, I managed multinational client partnerships across North America, Europe, and Asia, aligning Product, Compliance, Risk, Operations, and Service to deliver innovative and scalable solutions. Highlights include a double-digit revenue lift through strategic pricing and enterprise-wide compliance initiatives that reduced regulatory exposure and improved operational readiness.Now leading U.S. Business Development at Aevi, I build GTM strategies and partnerships with PayFacs, PSPs, ISVs, acquirers, and enterprise retailers to modernize in-person payments (Android POS, SoftPOS/Tap to Pay, orchestration, estate management). I’m motivated by high-integrity teams, clear execution, and creating customer-first experiences in a legacy-heavy industry.If you’re exploring in-person payments modernization or channel/enterprise partnerships, let’s connect.
