Services
Every engagement is fixed-scope and built around a clear deliverable. Pick the one that matches where you are, then schedule on the calendar. Intake, scheduling and payment all happen in one place.
Revenue Audit Lite
For digital product, payments, fintech and SaaS revenue leaders who suspect payload and tech stack fees are quietly eroding margin. SideB reviews your last 90 days of payments data and payload calls, and delivers a written audit identifying the top revenue-recovery opportunities — quantified, prioritized, and ready to act on. Includes a 30-minute walkthrough call. Delivered in 5 business days.
Payments Diagnostic
A 90-minute working session plus a written diagnostic of your payments stack, delivered in 10 business days. Covers cost-of-acceptance, authorization-rate benchmarking against peers, fraud-cost ratio, chargeback ratio, scheme-mandate exposure, and vendor-renegotiation flags — all quantified with a prioritized action plan ready to share with Finance and Procurement. Includes a 60-minute readout. For payments leaders at fintechs, SaaS, marketplaces, and PSPs.
Payments Optimization Sprint
A two-week working sprint for teams ready to act on payment cost AND acceptance lift, not just identify the opportunities. Includes the full Payments Diagnostic plus a vendor renegotiation playbook (target rates, BATNA, scripts), BIN-routing optimization, decline-recovery rules, and a sequenced 90-day execution plan. Weekly working sessions and a final read-out. For Heads of Payments, CFOs, and RevOps leaders at fintechs, marketplaces, and PSPs.
Studio Retainer
A monthly monthly engagement for growth-stage teams who'd rather have SideB on-call than buy one-off projects. Includes a monthly strategy session, quarterly board-prep, on-demand vendor reviews, and async Slack access. Scope is mutually defined at activation and revisited quarterly. Month-to-month with a 30-day cancellation notice; no annual commitment. Pricing scoped to scope, cadence, and team-size after a discovery conversation. For payments, RevOps, agentic commerce, finance, and product leaders running fintechs, SaaS, or marketplaces.
AI Operating Partner
A focused 4–6 week sprint (longer for complex scopes) where SideB plugs in as your dedicated AI operating partner — scoping, enabling, and optimizing AI inside your business or revenue operations stack. Covers AI-stack and vendor review, model and tooling selection (enterprise-tier, contractually zero-training), playbook authoring for the workflows AI will own, change-management and adoption rituals, and an ROI dashboard the leadership team can read. Pricing scoped to depth and duration. For CFOs, COOs, Heads of Revenue, Heads of Payments, and Chiefs of Staff adding AI capability inside revenue, finance, or operations.
Procurement / RFP Project
End-to-end RFI and RFP support for payments, fraud, and revenue-stack vendor selection. Covers market scan, vendor longlist, capability matrix, scoring rubric, evaluation, and contract negotiation. Run as RFI (early market discovery) or full RFP (formal procurement with scoring and negotiation). For Heads of Payments, CFOs, COOs, and Procurement leaders selecting PSPs, gateways, fraud tools, orchestration platforms, or BNPL providers. Pricing scoped to category, timeline, and number of vendors evaluated.
