This announcement comes at an exciting time for Cardata. Last year, Cardata secured a $100M growth investment from Wavecrest Growth Partners with a co-investment from MassMutual Ventures. The capital has allowed Cardata to make significant strides in product and go-to-market, the results of which are already becoming evident, with Cardata's employee mobile tracking application reviews now outperforming other providers on the Apple and Google Play stores. Arriving as CEO, Haywood will look to supercharge Cardata's growth trajectory.

"I am very excited to join Cardata," said Haywood. "While I was considering signing on, I was impressed by how much potential there was in the market, and the excellent technology that was already in place. Mostly though, I saw a team of great people that are passionate about solving customer problems. Cardata has an amazing opportunity to grow, innovate and create even more impact for its customers, and I can't wait to be a part of it."
