Payments Solutions Company Will Support Member Small Businesses to Grow and Expand Business Operations       

DALLAS, TX – The National Association for the Self-Employed (NASE), the nation’s leading advocate and resource for the self-employed and micro-business community, is proud to announce today its new partnership with Payanywhere, a payment solutions company. Payanywhere will sponsor the June $4,000 Growth Grant awarded during the second quarter of 2022 designed to help small businesses grow and expand their business operations.

We are pleased to partner with Payanywhere to offer critical financial support to our small business members as they continue bounce back from the Covid-19 pandemic,” said John Hearrell, Vice President of Membership and Affiliate Programs. “Our nation’s small business community, including self-employed and micro-businesses, helps fuel the American economic engine.  They represent the true entrepreneurial spirit of America with their resilience and determination to recover from a devastating pandemic that deeply impacted our community. We are proud to help them in their recovery, proud to partner with Payanywhere, and do our part to support the America’s small business community.”

In 2021, NASE awarded $60,000 total in total grants to fifteen small businesses to support their growth and expansion of business operations and help support their emergence from the COVID pandemic.  This year, the NASE plans to increase its awards even more. NASE Growth Grants are available to members in good standing, and who apply online. To become a member of NASE to be eligible for a Growth Grant, visit here.

“Payanywhere has always focused on empowering small business owners by giving them the tools they need to compete with their larger competitors,” said Jim Parkinson, Chief Experience Officer of North American Bancard, parent company to Payanywhere. “Partnering with NASE on this Growth Grant initiative is important to us because we know that when you’re self-employed you need as many people in your corner as possible. Our hope is that by empowering the livelihoods of small business owners with the best payments experience possible, we can make a larger difference in the world.”
