Sponsor banks are members of credit and debit card associations that create the necessary links between payment processors, merchants, and credit and debit card companies to enable payment processing. Bank sponsorship is a critical partnership in each country for any payment processor and the partnership with Peoples represents another significant milestone on the pathway to the full commercialization of LedgerPay, a Quisitive product. Additionally, the process of attaining bank sponsorship includes extensive due diligence that has certified Quisitive’s financial status, business strategy, background checks, and more to ensure that Quisitive is a reputable payment processor and key participant in the global financial system. The achievement of bank sponsorship in Canada further validates the Company’s preparedness as it approaches the general availability of LedgerPay.
