SNJ

What SNJ does

SNJ is a Kansas City, Missouri-based private billing services company founded in 2012 by Sheaneil Giles (Founder, Owner, and CEO). The firm provides an integrated billing services platform built for direct-to-consumer businesses, combining payment processing, customer validation and verification, fraud detection, and chargeback management into a single unified offering. The platform is positioned around reducing returns, stabilizing payment processing, and lifting month-over-month revenue for subscription and free-trial business models, with the company claiming clients see returns decline by up to 50% after migrating.

The underlying technology is a single consolidated billing platform rather than a modular, multi-product architecture — no discrete APIs, SDKs, or named sub-products are disclosed. Configurability and fraud-protection strategy tooling are cited as proprietary features, and the offering is delivered through dedicated, experience-matched client teams that design customized programs on a quote-based pricing model.

Commercially, SNJ operates a consultative, enterprise field-sales motion targeting direct-to-consumer companies, generating revenue through subscription/recurring billing services fees. The firm is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, investors, parent entities, acquisitions, partnerships, awards, or regulatory actions on record, and operates with an 11-50 employee headcount. Geographic reach and customer logos are not publicly disclosed.
