- Managing Director -
PayPal
While Hoffman worked at Socialnet, he was also a member of the board when founding PayPal, an electronic money transfer service. In January 2000 he left socialnet and became a full -time manager of PayPal.
All Blue, which Hoffman had hired at PayPal, said: "PayPal had to fight for every market advantage that it had, and Reid became a specialist in asserting himself in this extremely competitive environment." He was responsible for all external relationships of PayPal, such as the payment infrastructure (Visa, Mastercard, Ach, Wellsfargo), business expansion (eBay, intuit and others), management as well as for legal matters.
Peter Thiel, Hoffman's supervisor at PayPal, said: "He was the senior fireman at PayPal. This reduces his position, however, because it blazed a lot of fires at that time." At the time when PayPal was taken over by ebay for US $ 1.5 billion in 2002, he was the leading managing director of PayPal.
