Y CombinatorDEBT COLLECTION
Licensing for debt collection.
Agencies and debt buyers face one of the messier license maps: state regimes, bonds, branch licenses, and in some places city-level licensing on top. Payna tracks all of it as one program.

How debt collection teams use Payna.
Apply. Get licensed.
Collection agency licenses across the states that require them, including city-level regimes layered on top, with surety bonds and branch licenses handled alongside the main applications.
Explore Apply →Seats. License individuals.
Some states license individual collectors as well as agencies. Where they do, Seats manages those individual licenses per person, beside the entity program.
Explore Seats →Maintain. Stay licensed.
Renewal cycles, bond continuations, and state exams, planned backward from every deadline. When a state or city changes its licensing rules, the change comes from Payna, not from a regulator letter.
Explore Maintain →API. Build on license data.
Creditors check agency licensure before placing accounts. Give them, and internal compliance teams, a live answer instead of a spreadsheet.

Covered in the state, exposed in the city.

The state layer
Agency licenses, surety bonds, branch registrations: the standard map, different in every state that has one.
- [2]
The city layer
New York City, Buffalo, and Yonkers license collection activity separately. A state license alone does not cover them.

One calendar
Payna tracks both layers as one program, so a city-level renewal is never a surprise.
DEBT COLLECTION LICENSING, IN PRACTICE
Notes from the people who file these.
- Debt collection licensing does not stop at the state line
Some cities license collection agencies on top of the state. That layer is invisible on a state-by-state map, which is why teams miss it.
