There are very few places where you have a question you feel is unsolvable and someone else in that community will say, "I'm dealing with that now, and here’s my take on it."

Being part of the MRC is fantastic, because you have a network of people that you can reach out to in safety and in security, and those people will be coming to you, asking you questions, and that sense of sharing in a safe environment...that’s been so important for all of us.  For anybody out there that is not part of this community, if you’re a payments and fraud professional, you need to be part of it. It’s only when you become part of it that you really see the value.

The MRC community has provided me with an army of people that I can rely on to give me an answer to just about any question. You can lean on those connections and that network to really build your solutions, build your strategy...and evolve.

The MRC is a forum where merchants can collaborate with each other, can talk to all the solution providers, and touch base with all the different payments stakeholders. It’s a great collaboration opportunity.
