Praise and a Suggestion for GS Online

Your site is EXTREMELY useful and comprehensive. Very high praise for the knowledge you have gathered.

One suggestion is to have the date published for the articles right in the body of the article. I know that if you were to do a search, the two or three line descriptions that come up show the date, but once you click to get the full article the date is not on that screen.

Just a thought I wanted to share, but keep up the great work.

Thanks for your comments. We are looking into including the issue date with each article on GS Online.

Where to Submit Press Releases?

Please forgive me because I am new to The Green Sheet. I was curious if you have a general e-mail address in which we may be able to send over a press release, or do you have a resource that I may learn of in which The Green Sheet edition "captures" press releases? Thanks for your time.

Looking for the ISO List

Can you tell me if The Green Sheet has published a list of ISOs that sell merchant payment acceptance solutions? I am doing research and looking for 10 - 20 names of companies in this sector of the ISO business. Any help you can give me to point me in the right direction would be appreciated.

Thanks for your e-mail. Unfortunately, we do not publish the list you are looking for. There are countless independent sales organizations (ISOs) that sell merchant payment acceptance solutions. Try using our Fast Finder search capabilities on our Web site (www.greensheet.com/search.cgi) to narrow your search.

We do report on the top billion dollar bankcard acquirers (companies that acquire merchant accounts, process their payments, and sell payment processing services) every year in our GSQ acquiring report. You may view archived GSQs at www.greensheet.com/gsq/Secured-/gsqissues.html . We will publish the 2005 GSQ acquiring report this month.
