jPOS Created Here

That's the desktop where the world's best payment systems infrastructure gets created. I'm grateful to play a role in the world Alejandro has created.

In other news, it looks like we'll top 5,000 store locations today - or, by latest, next Tuesday - at our flagship OLS.Switch installation. It's been a long time getting those 1,800 new stores on-boarded, but our client got some serious momentum over the last couple of months. The last store gets converted on Friday, May 30th.
