I don't think I understand. Why would they go to the trouble to launch this API, make claims of being able to process payments, etc. if it is "useless"?

- spydum 11y agoYou have no idea of the plethora of CIO/CTO digital transformation initiatives being kicked off at fortune 100s.. Everybody needs an API, even if they serve no purpose. Oh yes, and agile too.
- us0r 11y agoI don't think they launched anything. I think its just shiny new pages. CyberSource has been around since 1994. It's not useless if you have a merchant account.
- rezrovs 11y agoThere are two classes of payments - consumer and business. This API is designed for business payments. Companies that process tens, if not hundreds of thousands of payments on a monthly basis. Think about the companies that sit behind businesses like Etsy or Uber - they need to take a lot of payments from customers and pay the supplier. Many of those payment companies are financial institutions themselves who probably already have some kind of connection to programs like Visa.
