SEATTLE–(BUSINESS WIRE)–doxo, the all-in-one web and mobile bill pay service, today announced it was named the gold winner of Seattle Business Magazine’s 2019 Tech Impact Awards in the Mobile category. doxo provides simple, secure, all-in-one bill pay to 50,000 billers across the country. With a mobile-first bill pay experience that makes it easier for consumers to stay on top of their bills each month, doxo helps reduce the hassle and anxiety of managing household spending. The Tech Impact Awards recognize companies in Washington State that are using technology to have a significant impact on business, industry, or society.
“The recognition from Seattle Business Magazine is a testament to doxo’s commitment to innovation, market leadership, and mission to repair the broken bill pay process and alleviate common frustrations felt by both consumers and billers,” said doxo CEO and co-founder, Steve Shivers. “The majority of bill payments we facilitate for our users each month originate from their mobile devices, so delivering a world-class, mobile-first user experience has been a priority for us. Taking home the gold in this category is especially validating and meaningful, and we’re honored to be selected and recognized by Seattle’s creative and ambitious community of innovators.”
During a ceremony at MoPOP in Seattle, doxo joined 29 other honorees who were celebrated for their achievements in Washington’s tech sector. Honorees were chosen by a panel of judges from a group of nominees in categories such as security, enterprise, entertainment, and SaaS. Several new categories were added this year to highlight achievement in the artificial intelligence, blockchain, education, health tech, mobile and tech services/consulting sectors.
“It’s well-known that more than 120 technology companies based elsewhere have opened offices here to take advantage of our thriving tech scene,” said Rob Smith, executive editor of Seattle Business Magazine. “The Tech Impact Awards recognize the sort of work that inspires even greater leaps forward.”
