On Its First Birthday, WePay Celebrates As Engagement Quintuples In Last 90 Days

Almost exactly one year ago (their birthday is tomorrow), WePay launched its group payment platform to the public. The goal was simple: give people an easy way to divvy up bills, member dues, and other common transactions with an integrated payment system and easy reminders to nudge those fraternity members who haven't paid their dues yet. The service is also handy for selling tickets and collecting donations.In light of the occasion, WePay is starting to talk about some of its numbers (albeit vaguely). WePay CEO Bill Clerico says that in the last three months, the service's engagement numbers have surged from around 5,000 users per week to 25,000 per week. These users aren't just visiting the site"they're actually taking substantive action, like sending bills. He attributes this growth to optimizations the site has recently made to its sharing flows on Twitter, Facebook and its emails. He also says that WePay has drawn a lot of new users from referrals.
