OrbitalPay Trumpets 2019 XBIZ Exec Awards Noms for Bryson, Campbell

LOS ANGELES — OrbitalPay is tub-thumping a pair of 2019 XBIZ Exec Awards — Online Industry nominations for Steve Bryson and Karen Campbell.

Bryson, the company’s founder and CEO, was nominated for Businessman of the Year.

He has helmed OrbitalPay and its parent company, Global Electronic Technology, “for over 30 years, processing payments for the largest adult companies in the world, in addition to thousands of mainstream merchants,” a rep said.

Campbell marks eleven years with OrbitalPay next year and was nominated as Brand Ambassador of the Year.

"On behalf of Karen and myself, a big ‘thank you’ to XBIZ and to the people in the industry who nominated us,” Bryson said. “We've been dong this for a long time, but it never gets old being recognized by our peers. See everyone in January at XBIZ 2019!"

Bryson is also focusing time and attention on The Never Forgotten Foundation, his nonprofit charity that “helps communities in need and feeds the homeless during the holidays,” the rep said. “This year, Bryson aims to provide over 100,000 meals to those in need in Southern California with his annual 'Never Forgotten Food Drive,' which concludes on Nov. 16.”

Friends and colleagues are invited to make a donation via the foundation’s website.
