APP Webinar: Instant Reaction to Recent FTC Enforcement Action; Paddle.com and the "Merchant of Record” Model

Join us for an "instant reaction" discussion on the recent FTC enforcement action involving Paddle.com, including its implications for the “Merchant of Record” model. 

According to the FTC, Paddle.com opened merchant accounts claiming to be a “merchant of record” or software “reseller,” then used these accounts to process card payments on behalf of numerous, unrelated third-party merchants involved in computer repair scams. The FTC says that Paddle.com also enabled overseas schemes to access the credit card system and collect payments from U.S. consumers, all while evading detection by sponsor banks and card networks. Our panel of experts will examine the FTC’s allegations and discuss the implications and takeaways of the FTC’s criticisms, including on the "Merchant of Record"  model.
