Suddenly corporate powers don't seem as strong. It's amazing how vulnerable something man made is.
- thecoffman 16y agoI'm assuming thats a coincidence. I cannot imagine Visa's payment processing infrastructure is coupled to its web infrastructure in any way. That would be monumentally bone headed.
- goldenthunder 16y agoIndeed, as I remember setting some payment stuff up at my parents business a while back-- you can get a gateway setup that uses their web interface to process transactions. That was a while back, but maybe they have legacy systems. Either way, they are loosing money one way or another =/
- cosmicray 16y agoA Taco Bell I frequent uses a VPN back to the franchisee to aggregate the card payments. Wouldn't surprise me if that's getting messed with as well.
