I am employed as a part-time contractor for PayNet, Inc. which provided proprietary data used for some of the analysis in this article. However, the extent of the financial support paid by PayNet was significantly less than $5,000 as of the previous twelve months. In addition, PayNet did not have the right to review the paper prior to its circulation.
