Moving forward, the beginning of the Footprint magazine will be featuring a letter from our executive director rather than a president’s letter. It has been a pleasure contributing to this column over the years and I am so excited to see what the next chapter holds. I am proud that our organization has stayed undeterred by the challenges that 2020 has brought.

  • Da MONETARY E DEXTER
    Hanno speso più di 1,5 milioni di dollari nella ricerca solo per scoprire qual è il posto migliore, nel corpo umano, per inserire il "bio-chip". Ed hanno trovato la FRONTE: sotto lo scalpo e sotto la parte posteriore della MANO, specificatamente.. LA MANO DESTRA. Faceva si che tutti, piccoli e grandi, ricchi e poveri, liberi e schiavi ricevessero un marchio sulla mano destra e sulla fronte; e che nessuno potesse comprare o vendere senza avere tale marchio, cioè il nome della bestia o il numero del suo nome. APOCALISSE 13: 16- 17 Un miliardo di Bio-chip vengono prodotti ogni anno (al momento) da MONDEX.Il valore del denaro potrebbe essere manipolato, rubato o cancellato dai terminali delle banche. Le carte di credito debbono essere rinnovate continuamente e il denaro reale potrebbe diventare poco sicuro nell'ambito del mercato generale. C'è solo una soluzione a questo problema, proposta da MOTOROLA: Fissare il Bio-chip nella mano destra o nella fronte, da dove non potrà essere rimosso, perché se venisse asportato chirurgicamente, la piccola capsula scoppierebbe e l'individuo sarebbe contaminato dalle sostanze chimiche contenute. Il sistema di posizionamento globale, GPS, poi, rivelerebbe la sua rimozione e avvertirebbe le autorith competenti. Notate che MONDEX vuole dire "il denaro sulla vostra mano". MON-DEX è una parola composta da MONETARY e DEXTER. Il Dizionario e l'Enciclopedia Webster definiscono così queste parole: MONETARY, appartenente al denaro; DEXTER, appartenente alla o posizionato sulla mano destra. Notate anche che il logo MONDEX contiene 3 anelli concatenati, un simbolo che si trova solo nel mondo dell'occultismo rnassonico.

  • A Study on Debit Cards
    Dr. Yellaswamy Ambati, International Journal of Research in Management, Economics and Commerce, ISSN 2250-057X, Impact Factor: 6.384, Volume 08 Issue 02, February 2018, Page 248-253 A Study on Debit Cards Dr. Yellaswamy Ambati (Lecturer in Commerce, TS Model Junior College, Jangaon, Warangal, Telangana State, India) Abstract: A Debit Card is a plastic payment card that can be used instead of cash when making purchases. It is also known as a bank card or check card. It is similar to a credit card, but unlike a credit card, the money comes directly from the user's bank account when performing a transaction. Some cards may carry a stored value with which a payment is made, while most relay a message to the cardholder's bank to withdraw funds from a payer's designated bank account. In some cases, the primary account number is assigned exclusively for use on the Internet and there is no physical card. In many countries, the use of debit cards has become so widespread that their volume has overtaken or entirely replaced cheques and, in some instances, cash transactions. The development of debit cards, unlike credit cards and charge cards, has generally been country specific resulting in a number of different systems around the world, which were often incompatible. Since the mid-2000s, a number of initiatives have allowed debit cards issued in one country to be used in other countries and allowed their use for internet and phone purchases. Keywords: Debit Card, Credit Card, ATM, Bank, Master Card I. INTRODUCTION Debit cards are a great way to get more financial freedom without the risk of falling into debt.

  • Preparing for the Migration to 8-Digit
    Dynamic Payment Solutions. Trusted Results. Preparing for the Migration to 8-Digit BIN Understanding how the 8-Digit BIN Migration will affect Visa issuers and helping credit unions prepare for the April 2022 deadline. What’s Happening. Basically, the payment industry is growing. 6-digit BINs are reaching a point of depletion. Before depletion occurs, 6-digit BINs will be migrated to 8-digit BINs. The International Organiza- tion for Standardization (ISO) has set forth a plan for migration with a completion date of April 2022. On April 2022, the Visa pool of approximately 100,000 six-digit issuing BINs will become 10,000,000 eight-digit issuing BINs. After April 2022, 6-digit BINs will not be available for assignment. However, existing 6-digit BINs will continue to be supported as they become 8-digit BINs. All of the following entities are impacted by the migration: • Issuers • Acquirers • Processors • Merchants Migration testing starts in 2019 and formal migration goes until April 2022, allowing for about 2 1/2 years for migration. Visa pro- cessing logic will be updated as well to handle 8-digit BINs. While VisaNet changes are expected to be small, Visa is allowing plenty of time for clients to implement higher impact changes. Member Access Processing Preparing for the Migration to 8-Digit BIN How Did We Get Here? A few years ago, 6-digit BINs were plenty to handle the processing of credit card pay- ments. Payment processors and issuers created systems around the 6-digit BIN. But with industry growth and especially the use of tokenization, 6-digit BINs are reaching a point of exhaustion.

  • A Brief History of Payments
    A Brief History of Payments October 2015 A Brief History of Payment Year Up to 1799 13th Century In Venice bills of exchange were developed as a legal device to allow international trade without the need to carry gold 14th Century First known reference to bills of exchange in English law as a means to carry funds abroad 17th Century Bills of exchange were being used for domestic as well as international payments. One of the earliest handwritten cheques known still to be in existence was drawn on Messrs Morris and Clayton, scriveners and bankers based in the City of London, and dated 16 February 1659. It was for £400 (about £43,000 today) made payable to a Mr Delboe and signed by Nicholas Vanacker . 1694 At the very first meeting of the Court of the Bank of England on 27 June 1694, it was decided that customers who deposited money would have the choice of three types of account. One of these allowed customers to draw notes on the Bank up to the extent of their deposits. 1727 The Royal Bank of Scotland invented the overdraft, one of the most important banking innovations. The bank allowed William Hog, a merchant, to take £1,000 - the equivalent of £63,664 today - more out of his account than 2015 Consulting Polymath he had in it. Source: Source: 1717 The Bank of England pioneered the use of printed forms, the first of which were produced in 1717 at Grocers’ Hall, London. The printed slips had scrollwork at the left-hand edge which could be cut through, leaving part on the cheque and part on the counterfoil – the real “check” – which is how the cheque got its name.
