HOME/ABOUT

Operator first, consultant second.

1://STORY

We run what we recommend.

Wes Allen & Co is a consulting firm and venture studio run from Miami. Finance, brand, payments, software — the firm advises on the same disciplines it operates every day.

We hold real positions: 50% of Ireland Pay and 100% of Kairos Card Services. Payments companies with live merchants, daily settlement, and numbers that don't forgive guessing.

That changes the advice. Consultants who observe an industry sell theory. We sell what already worked — because when it doesn't, we pay for it first.
