Yes Will, Venmo primarily over one a course, the program. much of through it's so base that through it's and bigger program

integrate I two, a today we are big company only there enhancing means in platform. PayPal So when about the indirect, our that platform, needs a do which talk to it like partner,

Visa the MasterCard With or Okay? rails the rails.

for Now direct is the what's XXXX model. that happening doing we're

That and to rolled will next we're that it five going industries. even in haven’t rolled year we out. do So the be over out different

it the difference is two. with can It's processing a go big way rails. between a and company, direct When they so force do in direct companies integrating have themselves the we there don't to – that into integrate Let a me to Visa we the the actually we're big deal.

payments, the is literally the could doing indirect there the in world wants rails we product we're that route, everybody route into up - that a only to company opened on world partner. a in integration with issue Venmos do integration to on while actually the the the So the who few a because direct there's any

that's So product, greatly that expand payment when by we're that's we say going rapid that to mean funds product, I that, product. that for what

William Wallace

Damian Kozlowski

period because to adaption set trying get we're XXXX it We We're to in be meaningful. and the should it been significant hasn’t we totally of we platform could ready there all the be, but what a XXXX to so - with in having But be of the different result up do could any cases is can that something should be multiple it be see and expand set will company and you like up, meaningful want on think be should benefits of just and worked guidance and it go-to-market for the at greater real a over we don't year when this use to is revenue. rate. it contributor go-to-market short have pricing five partners Yes, it we able industries time. out, the very to throughout

Frank Schiraldi

much I there's a point one mean and the rely right just have is and market seems uses. addressable on, of here you lot on have don't big player Venmo different it to and player, you you larger so but I like mean a just to is rely don’t

would mean, does overall the be would a you bigger the guess business, funds, I that sense? generator this indirect revenue So a rapid make that than hazard

Damian Kozlowski

sophisticated have indirect, The players there got the you've integration. to – you yes. do they is player be a big a to only to that remember few Well,

we're people be Because that's to able huge that a – get to we're many somebody they that partner like if us. doing those So ourselves, difference. a access unless process with to are wouldn't Right?

are play that as potential don't on - and – don't it's is we different. - but we execute have very this out it - pricing that it's out the the you So I to We to know, able and just to could larger be don't and Whether think potential think we'll the enormously report is back you let is find during potential enormous. know, we guidance market we'll XXXX. the if any

up beta go-to-market out, for so proved or far the we're but to you be road. already set down has as know So concept we things the that lane proved testing with has - of have that out type to this, be we

Frank Schiraldi

indirect primary do that, Okay, you, into guess for expectation reasonable business, the the up just the now say where it the, seems business, or visibility here there we'll in and you in that is line the can have the I the indirect see partnership Venmo you in partner like that that then you is of is do think a ramping growth you significantly think? item term still with what rate business is near that,

Damian Kozlowski

Yes, product on I have for they're strategy everything. depends don't visibility. totally and It what is that

look can a the at you couple bigger no think fees much practically last and the half over fees a I of base year years off a and it's with started ago. it

don't I So on that. visibility have

waiting continue I another and waiting but product think we'll partner. to could but happen, we're and not It support happen. big not that around we're changes programs for

So the by opportunity. we direct far and think much the is larger

not of future by don't that. portfolio. but it's like don't have come that know we would know, the yet that think product honestly be - a of totally don't lending I So to dwarfed we We what growth opportunity, as will

concept. to into don't will have We the the of we have get yet. industry should it substantial, be payments it on the think We - about guidance really prove but and market out know as that we everything

Frank Schiraldi

to and perfect guys XX% from you X now checking going line don't interest if don't just and rest XX% look but XXXX there. at rate that around if it's at Okay with were in essentially deposit sense is you are have no up know, basis which want see we got confirm hikes? you XX Fed, are we what quarter, of gone points to if December, just if makes I this to be basically if betas on costs about any through the light additional one point demand talked the all I you see of those through think costs, have the deposit to think then through linked the Fed hikes, reasonable we it in obviously betas

Damian Kozlowski

as but Yes, generally in to uptick, our we characterize individual one be remember changes margin mixes a of net so balance, yes, and are have and last rates. in have from large deposits. the have that conclusion There accurate. but keyed are There in of through a I are benefit that number slight balances would we'll slight will the but programs will net December, uptick programs we interest it different

not So as now see changes, of could but we're expecting really changes. you right some big

Paul Frenkiel

but You'll with obviously bank their going pretty not going have get that's every the just a that. no we're year funding not repricing happening banking the definitely CDs, we to us you're that get to just over much the happen this, next since CD cost, on over will funding change to costs and year, with size lag have other our you will going have in next

Frank Schiraldi

Right, I don't saying, partners, and more? your well people bit you contractual, mean be I little to it's have coming mean so you you couldn’t a

Damian Kozlowski

are Fed just don't stuff happen maybe think - you but this a a Fed. times Yes, more? be current will conditions Yes, with from there's whether of market the won't the could bit people a or even they they year, do was, increase more what rate, been of don't couple as is There little and but predicting it a ambiguity will the they'll bit I raise opinion from of great lag to that'll lowering the last a disparity the know. when lot the some

Frank Schiraldi

you comp Right, okay me quarter? there the, If was still up and what of then modeling securitization, linked on reasons the wondering on if the mentioned can that? seems or the comp related linked to sort comps what to give quarter variable say the was I for Paul just just year-over-year, should out just some finally, just that biggest game the I comp up variable just line, driver it greatest being comp for was pull purposes, driver of and cost of the the you on

Paul Frenkiel

the of I'd off some really We so going forth, one. but the categories, changes XX-K. you - did rather in XX-K's, give detail and I'm to I put I in number there wait that do a review to the don't on

Frank Schiraldi

Okay wrong? am rate but comp, quarter is to up that ex that say it significantly a was that that fair I linked comp or fair, is variable

Paul Frenkiel

the at the And which better we is we Yes, that comp do way total model, look off probably you're has your not looking dramatically. increased, terms way in of noninterest expense. it that at it but is

some salaries expense expenses then expense and management can and salaries, between other have is we impact manage there on So an but might up. go categories down, has other expenses the interplay our the salary way go so -

So look that's it what as would noninterest on. total I we expense, focus at

Damian Kozlowski

you make that of like processing, of the as really part dramatic some things is sure managing our total in like several categories there's we, pie. So to can been those that increases see and we're

Frank Schiraldi

right. Thank you. Fair all enough. okay Right,

Operator

Thank you comes line and Matthew question Piper the from Jaffray. with of our Breese next

Your open. line is

Matthew Breese

Good on item, focus and behind line to wanted understand not I everybody. beat horse the just components here, a dead the morning ACH to it.

million that revenues quarter, that was the assuming of So based correct? on $X.X gross margin is some it that behind volume and I'm dollar this

Paul Frenkiel

of I year-over-year. have look you at to you the in think how you income your gives should It that said, model. really that really treat as best idea Damian

Matthew Breese

to there's pretty next loans that and think growth and be there increase maybe held-for-sale, a going some the quarter the Okay, just before March then you turning this into securitization. said to was sizable I it

a from securitization perspective usual it usual and looks should that than bigger a just we So larger expect dollars with than gain?

Damian Kozlowski

first the quarter. where Well, set out will the It's don't small market We how securitizations plays it will where yet result point the larger. was These the issued much of gain securitization, larger gain will the We've It a to by - can't of to of these so the of starter small doesn't you are though, these investors. expenses securitization, guidance larger the once know that rating mean so been really on larger. gain marketplace, from X.XX securitization - that be running at at We in probably on of we And but happen actually these will are agencies, we securitization larger. it be a the be we spreads have have is this is is how size, X, for necessarily kind where know size be going for see because really – end is just the don't the types trust. that levels in driven the of they're a and the give securitizations. by and again March. each size the institutional will

So…

Matthew Breese

end the second? said you it be that would Okay, or will in that quarter bleed at now of is be the March, say the to Xst the into will so it gain

Damian Kozlowski

the we're get you'll end at to high planning have That so a level first quarter. will of, know so full you interest, now. be We're

So full quarter. interest for the you'll get first income that

individual for last the for have I at set the more of first more with quarter partners. three market year. then we'll three set, and larger you loans times securitization actually year, of of to the other doing having like be expense model We securitizations tend the the done of rest are of we'll wanted securitization, way incur think we've which dollar the so you'll and the market another our two September compatible with it larger for investors institutional for have to and diversity probably of end amounts - how go because the the instead after have the is will

the that that think quarter the set to the where for will third think idea the targeting building give I the first book to from we're a very that as and second too revenue loan to generated securitization of I be will spread we'll, will So end the quarter. you good of
