21 year old entrepreneur builds a Stripe competitor from scratch

In this episode, you’ll see a 21-year-old founder building a Stripe competitor from absolutely nothing but hustle. I’m documenting the real behind the scenes of growing a payment processing + profit-intelligence startup while learning everything in real time: raising capital, building tech, meeting with business owners, and trying to scale a company at 21.

You’ll see me sourcing clients, refining the product, handling the chaos of running a startup alone, and navigating meetings with investors and advisors. I also link up with different entrepreneurs in my circle as we talk growth, business strategy, and what’s happening next.

If you enjoy entrepreneur vlogs, day in the life founder content, or videos about building a startup from scratch, this is for you. Follow a 21-year-old entrepreneur creating a new payment processing company, documenting the journey of building real tech, signing real clients, and trying to compete in a massive industry.

Viewers who watch creators like Yusufa Sey, Iman Gadzhi, Dan Vas, or search terms like “startup vlog,” “founder life,” “payment processing,” or “day in the life entrepreneur” will find value here.

Stay tuned for upcoming episodes where you’ll see more behind-the-scenes of building PointCraft, closing deals, developing features, onboarding stores, and learning the game as I go."
