Founded in 1996, Authorize.Net has seen dramatic growth in its merchant base over the past few years. While it took approximately eight years for the company to surpass 100,000 active merchants, achieving that milestone in August 2004, it took only slightly more than three additional years to double that number. "Authorize.Net owes much of its success to its partners and employees," stated Roy Banks, Authorize.Net president. "Our partners, particularly our resellers, have been loyal and dedicated in selling our products and services. They are an important part of our business and instrumental to the success we have enjoyed. We remain committed to serving them and helping them meet the payment management needs of their merchant customers. It is also important to credit the hard work and dedication of our employees. This is a tremendous achievement that has been accomplished through their combined efforts."
