CEO and co-founder of PaySauce, Asantha Wijeyeratne, reflects on the 

quarter: “It’s safe to say we ended the year on a high note, being named by 

Deloitte as one of the fastest-growing tech companies in the Asia-Pacific 

region, and hitting another milestone of $2M ARR based on December 

monthly revenue. While the majority of our customers come from the 

agriculture sector, this quarter has seen our customer base diversify across 

a range of rural industries. We’re really excited to be heading into 2020 

with a renewed focus on partnerships and customer experience.”
