This month, the Platforms team welcomed four new team members across sales and engineering, while active sub-accounts grew to ATHs (+64% MoM).
I am looking for someone to lead a focus into 1/ gaming and 2/ fashion marketplaces/platforms.

I waited, learned and made my first investment since returning as an active investor at Sequoia.
Whop is a special company, and Iโm excited to help them to create jobs and stimulate the economy.
When I first joined Whop, I had the opportunity to meet thousands of entrepreneurs from around the world.
Business operators as young as 14 were making generational income dropshipping on Amazon or building AI automations for antiquated businesses.
No matter the business model or scale, the primitives were always the same.
These businesses required a website, payment acceptance, pixel, ads, card issuing, global payouts, bill pay, etc
Last quarter, my team at Whop announced partnerships with Slash, Cursor, Replit, SpaceX, etcโฆ
Whop is building the end to end API for running a business, enabling money movement, customer acquisition, and mobilization of an on-demand workforce.
Our mission is to help everyone earn a sustainable income.
We are building for the Global Fortune 5,000,000 โ small to medium sized businesses run by people just like us.
These businesses are underserved, and are the backbone of so many local economies across the world.
Iโm more energized than ever, and the platforms team is growingโฆ
Shoot me a DM! Iโm hiring across sales, account management, FDE and more!
Whop has raised $200M in Series D funding at a $5.1B valuation, backed by @sequoia and @shopify.
It really feels like we are barely touching the tip of the iceberg in a market larger than anyone can imagine.
We first launched Whop as a better way for us to sell sneaker bots, one of the most niche types of desktop software out there.
Total TAM? Probably $20,000 per day.
Who cares, tiny market.
But, what people discounted is the idea that there were actually 70,000 other markets exactly like that one.
Beyond the investment itself, I am especially excited to welcome legendary silicon valley investor @dougleone to our board of directors. Doug and the sequoia team are nothing but a brilliant, resourceful, and principled group of people.
My co-founder Cameron and I started building on Shopify when we were 13 years old. Shopify is one of the most impactful all-in-one cloud ecosystems ever created; @tobi has pioneered modern entrepreneurship the way we know it and we are thrilled to have him in our corner.
We have a tenet at Whop to be the dumbest in the room and I am very grateful that this has recently become a lot easier.
We are focused on markets, scale economies, and progressive media. If that is up your alley, please message me directly.
The $200M raised will support our expansion as we build economic infrastructure for the next century, continuing on our mission of delivering everyone an income.
