Message from our CEO

In memory and honor of our beloved grandmothers
Tamara Fedorovna Butchenko and Müzeyyen Beykan Pamukcuzade

Müzeyyen Beykan Pamukcuzade, my beloved grandma, was born in Istanbul, Turkey in 1916 to a Crimean immigrant family that had just moved to Istanbul after the Russian-Ottoman war.
Back in Bachchesaray, they were furniture manufacturers and cotton traders. The furniture trade business owned by her family back in Bahchesaray, Crimea was commissioned by the Ottoman Sultan to produce the gold woven black silk veil that covered the house built by Prophet Abraham in the middle of Kaba, Mecca.
She lived through WWI and the invasion of Istanbul, and attended St. Georg's Austrian Catholic College learning German. She was very disciplined and strict, yet open minded, swam every summer, was very competitive, and weaved table cloths that could cover tables for 20, cooked amazing food, believed in God, prayed five times a day, and fasted during Ramadan up until the age of 95, but never wore a headscarf and always supported the secular Republic of Turkey.
My grandmother passed away in 2013 from intestinal cancer at the age of 95. I didn't have a chance to say goodbye as I was at Gamescom with Benoit, and Vova's brother, Vanya, trying to grow Paymentwall.

Tamara Fedorovna Butchenko was born in Kryukov (currently Kremenchuk), Ukrainian SSR. She was like a mom to Vova and Vanya after their mom passed away in a tragic accident.
She was a strong Soviet woman, and worked as a phthisiology doctor for 54 years until her 80s, treating people from tuberculosis. She loved her work and didn’t want to leave it until she wasn’t able to work. For the last 20 or so years, she was working in the clinic of KPI, treating students from all over Ukraine, and from different parts of the world coming to study in USSR and then to Ukraine.
As a student, she helped in the reconstruction of Hreshatyk after the WWII. She was very organized, disciplined, a patriot and loyal to the well being of the Ukrainian and Russian ideals.
Every Veterans’ Day, she visited the tombs of the fallen soldiers who defended the independence and future of the country, with Vova accompanying her. She went through 3 phases of cancer treatments and she never gave up, until 2013, when she fell to lung cancer, leaving behind a legacy and memories of how a person can love her country so much. Vova and Vanya spent the last days of her life with her, taking shifts between Paymentwall and the hospital.
