Marker Trax hires Jennifer Galloway as Vice President and Deputy Counsel

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Cashless payments trailblazer Marker Trax has added Jennifer Galloway to the team as its vice president and deputy counsel.

Reporting directly to Chief Legal Officer Mark Hemmerle, Galloway comes on board to help guide the company’s financial compliance and legal strategies, increasingly critical areas of focus as the digital innovator continues expanding into more markets around the country.

Supporting continued strategic growth while ensuring adherence to the highest regulatory standards, Galloway brings a strong track record of successfully managing large-scale compliance initiatives for fintech leaders including Elevate, and advising law firms like Bradley Arant Boult Cummings LLP and others.

“Jennifer has a deep understanding of consumer financial law, and is a proven leader in regulatory compliance,” Hemmerle said. “She’s able to intuitively interpret complex regulatory requirements and translate them into actionable business strategies, key to our continued evolution. She’s the ideal addition to help us advance our position as standard-bearers in the cashless space.”

Galloway brings more than 15 years of experience in consumer financial law, regulatory compliance, and business law, with a focus on the financial services sector. Most recently, she served as assistant general counsel at Elevate, where she oversaw compliance for the company’s consumer lending products and provided guidance on various state and federal regulations. Before that, she was banking and financial services counsel at Bradley Arant Boult Cummings LLP, advising traditional and fintech lenders on compliance management systems and regulatory preparedness. She also holds a law degree and master of business administration degree from Stetson University College of Law and a degree in economics from the University of Georgia.

Galloway will be pivotal in reinforcing the company’s legal infrastructure. Her appointment comes at a time when Marker Trax is celebrating several key milestones, including a significant reinvestment from early investor Euronet Worldwide Inc., and being selected to lead a panel discussion at this year’s Global Gaming Expo.

“Jennifer joins us as a critical time in navigating new opportunities in the cashless payments space,” said Charlie Skinner, president of Marker Trax. “She’s an expert in building effective compliance programs and fostering relationships with key stakeholders. We’re leaders in this space, and building the best team is a big reason why.”
