This company boasted of so many clients but couldn't show any as an example because they were all "pre-launch". Seemed like a big pyramid scheme that no one bought in to.

The company encourages its 600 CLT representatives to make personal connections with callers, and to send flowers, cookies, or thank-you cards.

curious, do they encourage this on the company dime or is the CLT expected to pay out of pocket for these 'personal connections'?

Serious question- does the team then negotiate new terms after the weekend for those that do want to stay on-board? Who holds the 98.4% in the meantime?

Really fascinating that Visa is a partnere here when they already own Cybersource, which is a key player in the enterprise e-commerce payment space. The $5b valuation is higher than what Visa paid to acquire Cybersource ($2b) in 2010.

Would be great to see the additional features from Cybersource (tax calculation, address verification, fraud management) available with the ease of integration that Stripe provides.

How soon until Amazon buys the entire chain in order to get a distribution presence across the country?
