Built on a Foundation for Exceptional Growth.
A Delaware company built around a foundational invention in offline mobile payments — and the federal action pursuing accountability for its misappropriation.
Pricecheck did not improve upon a working market;
it built the keystone that unlocked one.
A Hardware-Free Architecture for an Industry That Could Not Move.
In early 2016, the global mobile-payments industry was at a standstill. The dominant consumer-presented QR-code model required every merchant to integrate expensive 2D barcode scanners into their point-of-sale systems — a hardware dependency that excluded the hundreds of millions of micro-merchants who form the backbone of offline retail. The architecture was also insecure: the People's Bank of China had banned QR-code payments in 2014, freezing the entire market.
Pricecheck's answer was a new architecture. Conceived in January 2016, the system inverted the model: the merchant displays a single, unchanging printed QR code; the consumer scans it with their own phone, builds a digital cart, and completes payment within the application. The architecture eliminated the need for new merchant hardware, made the system infinitely scalable, and solved the exact problems that had stalled the industry.
On August 4, 2016, the architecture was disclosed under a five-year Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement governed by New York law. A U.S. provisional patent application was filed on July 17, 2017. The consumer iOS application launched on the App Store in November 2017; the merchant application launched in New York in February 2018.
A Single Decade, One Throughline.
Six moments mark the arc of the Company from invention to forthcoming federal action.
A Company With One Question to Answer.
Pricecheck Inc. operates today as a focused, single-purpose company. Its entire current activity is the preparation, financing, and prosecution of the forthcoming federal action, anticipated in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.
A 292-page Confidential Due Diligence Binder, dated May 18, 2026, captures the full evidentiary record and the underlying analysis. A Subordinated Bridge Financing Offering is currently open to verified accredited investors under Rule 506(c) of Regulation D, hard-capped at thirty-five units.
Temporarily Led By One.
Jordan Powell, J.D. is the founder, president, and sole current executive of Pricecheck Inc. An international lawyer by training, he holds a Juris Doctor from Fordham Law School with a concentration in International and Comparative Law, executive coursework in finance from Harvard Business School, and a Bachelor of Science from St. John's University, where he served as valedictorian to the Class of 2012.
He conceived the Pricecheck architecture in early 2016 before studying International and Comparative Internet Law at Sungkyunkwan University Law School in Seoul, where he began teaching himself to code — starting with the relational database programming that would, two years later, become the foundation of the Pricecheck point-of-sale system. He is the lead claimant in the forthcoming federal action.
