Tony Allen is responsible for Recurly’s technology strategy and building a team focused on customers, collaboration, and continuous improvement to billing for thousands of companies across the United States and around the world.
Based in San Francisco, Tony brings more than 20 years of experience leading technology organizations on executive teams at Fortune 500 companies like PayPal and Verisign, and at early-stage startups like Signio, Inc. At PayPal, he led a number of critical business initiatives, including scaling the Venmo platform for billions of credit card payments and guiding PayPal’s effort to expand its reach with Marketplaces. Tony’s background has given him ample experience with the challenges and requirements of both building and scaling technology organizations that develop highly secure and reliable platforms, including the subscription management software for building recurring revenue growth.
When he’s not guiding the impact of technology on the billing automation platform, Tony enjoys spending time mountain biking, hiking, and exploring the Bay Area and beyond with his wife and three sons.
