Currently San Francisco. Est. Chicago.
Hi, I'm Abbas. I'm a researcher in San Francisco, and I trained as an anthropologist before I ever worked on a payments product.
I'm a Principal Product Researcher at Visa, working on stablecoins, agentic commerce, and card benefits. I answer the questions teams need to make better decisions, and in parallel I build the systems that keep evidence on the table before anyone has to ask.
You can browse the case studies I'm able to share, or catch a talk. If something here sparks a thought, write to hi@abbasjaffer.com.
