Suresh is also founder of Yantra Financial Technologies. He and his wife Suchitra Padmanabhan were featured in this NY Times Dealbook article last month.

Responding to the October 22 announcement by The Clearing House, Carol expresses her caution and hope for ways to accelerate replacement of today's system for credit push payments.
PoF 9 – Realtime Authorization and Messaging
Realtime, consumer-facing authorization of card payment transactions has been available for some time but few of us have it offered to us by our issuers.
