About Afshin Yazdian

Afshin Yazdian is the CEO of Kurv, a modern payments platform that evolved from a legacy "lifestyle business" called EMS. Kurv focuses on simplifying payments for small businesses by reducing friction, investing in human-centered service, and providing tools for sales, staff, and customers. Yazdian acquired and rebranded EMS as Kurv, and has since scaled applications and activations nearly tenfold in 18 months. Before leading Kurv, he held leadership roles at iPayment, Priority, and Paysafe, following an unconventional path from law.
