Dow Jones Description
We are a value added provider of merchant payment processing services and related software products. We deliver credit card-based payment processing solutions primarily to small and medium-sized merchants who operate in a physical business environment, over the Internet, or wireless setting via cellular-based wireless devices. Our payment processing services enable merchants to process traditional card-present transactions where a cardholder physically presents a credit or debit card to a merchant at the point-of-sale, or a card-not-present transaction where a sale is made over the internet or by telephone, fax or by mail. We believe our experience and knowledge in providing payment processing services to small and medium-sized merchants gives us the ability to effectively evaluate and manage the payment processing needs and risks that are specific to small businesses. Our primary customer base consists of small and medium-sized retailers throughout the United States and other merchant transaction sales via the internet. We believe our target market is traditionally underserved by larger credit card processors. We market our products and services through an in-house sales force utilizing multiple methods of origination, including use of the internet, call generation through in-house telesales, and other marketing media. ...
