"I have received all of my merchant information and I wanted to thank you for making this a simple, pleasant process.  It truly is as easy as you make it seem on your web site.  I was expecting a lot of unmentioned fees and complicated credit card processing procedures.  I used the ARU for the first time this morning.  I was, quite honestly, shocked at the simplicity of the process.  All I had to do was put in a few numbers and my authorization code was provided.  Thank you once again for your professionalism, honesty and "easy to use" system."
- C. LaPinta
