Orleatha Smith co-founded InclusivePay in 2018, building the company's merchant placement program for CBD, hemp, and alternative health businesses from the ground up. She spent two years working directly with acquiring banks, underwriters, and high-risk merchants navigating payment processing challenges across the CBD and cannabis space. InclusivePay has since placed 500+ merchants and processed over $6M for a single topical CBD client with zero account freezes. Orleatha is also co-founder of Sip Herbals and a Shark Tank alumna.
