  • Revenue was approximately $134 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2023, up 9% compared to $123 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was principally driven by higher transaction volume.
  • Revenue was approximately $223 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $227 thousand for the prior-year period. The slight decrease was principally driven by an adjustment in our revenue related to a processor.
