Ok then wish #1...a CheckFree Alliance with SETCO.

From that IBM press....

SET Secure Electronic Transaction LLC (commonly referred to as SETCo) was established by Visa and MasterCard in December 1997 as a legal entity to manage and promote the global adoption of SET. American Express Company [NYSE:AXP - news] and JCB Company Ltd are joining as charter members of SETCo and will become co-owners

Reasons...

1) Integrion and CheckFree are Partners

2) Then OFX and Gold are to Merge to one standard.

3) Integrion hooks up Visa and CheckFree...thereby getting SET and OFX/GOLD to talk to and work with eachother seamlessly.

4) The next logical step is for MasterCard, American Express to Follow the VISA/Integrion lead and let the banks regain some control internally of their Branded Card processing. Which would play right into their vested interest to deal again with CheckFree.

So 2 guesses in addition to American Express would be MasterCard and every merchant involved in SETCO.
