Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Ecommpay is a verified, established payment service provider (PSP) with significant operational scale (FCA regulated, principal member of Visa/Mastercard, ~€40M+ annual revenue). However, the submission quality was poor, featuring hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product', 'everyone') and confusing metrics ('75000000 marketcap' for a private company). External data indicates a recent 20% revenue decline due to strategic pivots, though the company remains far larger than the calibration baseline. The score reflects a mature business (~600s) penalized slightly for a low-effort submission and recent growth stagnation.
