Visa

You actually have to do the structuring, the normalization, et cetera, to actually kind of extract value from it.

But essentially, we're getting data directly from sources like Visa, MasterCard, Amex, the issuing banks, et cetera.

I'll also say that there's two categories that a lot of people don't really think about.

One obviously is debit cards.

The other category are what are called ADCs or alternative debit cards.

And these are things like gift cards that you would purchase at Best Buy or your local grocery store, et cetera.

That's basically a $100 Visa gift card, et cetera.

The reason that's important is because a lot of the unbanked, a lot of the debanked, a lot of lower income portions of our population, they actually use ADCs in place of cash to actually transact in our economy.

Gift card recipients are forced to take the frustrating steps of A, having to activate the card, B, carrying around an extra card in your wallet, C, trying to remember how much is left on the card, D, avoid losing the card, and then E, when you actually try to use it, you find out that not every merchant will accept it.

Recently, a friend gave my wife and me a very generous $250 Visa gift card as a thank you for something we had helped them out with.

Nice.

Generic.

Smart.

I had a friend that they figured out you could go get Visa gift cards.

And you could, like a $20 Visa gift card, and you could give the bartender the Visa gift card.

Because they don't charge it until you're done.

You know what I mean? Yes.

And they would just give the bartender the Visa gift card, run their tab up, and there's no name on it.

And then you just leave.

I love

But he's gonna get some prizes.
