KEY QUOTES FROM WOLFE:
“On June 1 of last year, our development team put their heads down and by Jan. 11, we launched our payments network.”
“The payments network is moving about $1.3 billion a month over structured data rails. So we’ve just been focused on moving brokers onto the network, moving our factors onto it to get rid of all of the inefficiencies. And success for us long term is if we put our optical character recognition software out of business, then we win because we prefer to do it over structured data.”
“Double brokering has always been around. It’s just one of those things that we’re seeing more and more. We have a duty to stand in the middle of that. So factors need to watch out, we’re watching out for them [double brokers]. Brokers need to watch out, we’re watching out for them. Then our own carrier relationships, we need to watch out and so we’ve got the bank grade security to do it.”
