Dan Price

Raised in rural Idaho, Dan Price founded Gravity Payments from his SPU dorm room at just 19-years-old. Although music was his passion growing up, Dan's lifelong mission became apparent upon witnessing thousands of hard-working small business owners being overcharged and under-served by their credit card processors. Dan built his Seattle-based credit card processing company on the values of honesty and transparency instilled upon him during his rural upbringing. These simple values have set Dan and his company apart from others in the industry, making Gravity the most trusted name in payments. Dan's 2015 decision to raise his company's minimum salary to $70,000 has captured headlines and inspired millions around the world. His life goal is to be a small speck in the revolution where business ceases to be about financial engineering and greed, and instead focuses on purpose and serving others. Dan's leadership and entrepreneurship have earned him many accolades and awards, notably Entrepreneur Magazine's "Entrepreneur of 2014" and the 2010 SBA "National Young Entrepreneur of the Year" awarded to him by President Obama.
