I have NEVER stated that it is to fund redpass, however it happends because with redpass, the cawen/zombaio portfolio too large to run without reserves. What happens is the Cawen (the new processing company) became a legal financial institution and does now have full principal memberships with MasterCard for issuing and acquiring. So the 5% reserve is for the Cawen portfolio (where zombaio is a part), again, not to fund redpass.
It's not a loan, its not steeling, its a reserve. You have that with all other direct merchant accounts or ipsp's. We need to be able to adopt changes, the HR processing is not what it was a few years ago.

Ok, thank you for clarifying. The reason #2 was brought up (I think) was because it sounded exactly like you said the 5% was being used to help fund repass. That's how I understood it also.
Anyway, I'll post back in a few days as to whether or not we've received our payouts.
