About The Role
We are seeking a highly driven Business Development Manager to accelerate the global growth of Binance Pay. This role focuses on identifying high-value merchant partners, driving commercial negotiations, enabling product adoption, and building strategic collaborations that enhance the Binance Pay ecosystem. You will work cross-functionally with Product, Marketing, Partnerships, Compliance, legal and regional teams to execute go-to-market strategies and scale payment use cases across markets.
Responsibilities
- Identify, build, and scale strategic partnerships with payment service providers, acquirers, and high-volume merchants across priority industries, driving rapid expansion of the regional merchant base and transaction volume.
- Own the full enterprise sales cycle including prospecting, cold outreach, pitching, commercial structuring, contract negotiation, KYB coordination, and cross-functional integration execution to accelerate go-live timelines.
- Develop and manage strong relationships with senior decision-makers within PSPs, acquirers, and large merchants, leveraging regulatory positioning and market credibility to unlock traditional payment infrastructure partnerships.
- Design and execute regional expansion strategies that prioritize high-impact verticals such as gaming, iGaming, trading platforms, e-commerce, OTA, and digital services, while identifying emerging opportunities across under-penetrated sectors.
- Collaborate closely with Product, Integration, Legal, Compliance, and Marketing teams to localize solutions, streamline onboarding processes, and develop joint go-to-market initiatives that drive merchant adoption and GMV growth.
- Analyze merchant performance and partnership data to segment accounts, optimize commercial terms, improve profitability, and maximize long-term ecosystem leverage.
- Continuously monitor competitive landscape, regulatory developments, and market shifts to refine regional strategy and inform global payment distribution expansion.
- Track and deliver against aggressive KPIs including merchant base growth, acquirer onboarding targets, and measurable transaction volume expansion.
Requirements
- Proven enterprise-level business development experience with the ability to engage and negotiate with C-suite stakeholders and manage complex, multi-party partnerships.
- Strong existing network within PSPs, acquirers, payment processors, or financial institutions in the target region.
- Demonstrated ability to operate in regulated environments and navigate compliance and reputational considerations when structuring partnerships.
- Commercially mature, resilient, and execution-driven, with the ability to build momentum in high-growth, expansion-focused environments rather than relying on established infrastructure.
- Strong analytical mindset with the ability to interpret merchant performance data and translate insights into scalable partnership strategies.
- Fluency in English is required to be able to coordinate with overseas partners and stakeholders. Additional languages would be an advantage.
