>>> They already signed up most banks, and as far as billers they are leading the pack

There's something like 12,000 banks in the USA. They still have some work to do. --- 2,000,000 million billers, too!

>>>Update that weak web site of their's.

> I think they will get a better ROI through a stock buy back.

Would you want a company to handle your payments over the internet that has a average to below average web site?

> Benny(IMHO, and not to mention DELL, Intel, and others that have large buyback programs)

The difference between these companies and CKFR is that they all make boatloads of money. They need the shares to pay stock options that employees exercise. These guys did not have buy back programs 10-15 years ago. No, they pumped all their money (and then some) back into their organizations. It's all about growth.

- I understand where everyone is coming from. The old supply and demand model, etc... But, look at a couple of smaller companies that announced buy backs this year and took a nose dives (ABF and BTC).
