Effect of Covid-19 Pandemic [Text Block] | Note 16. COVID- 19 The ongoing COVID- 19 pandemic has had a notable impact on general economic conditions, including but not limited to the temporary closures of many businesses, “shelter in place” and other governmental regulations, reduced consumer spending due to both job losses and other effects attributable to the COVID- 19 pandemic. There remain many uncertainties as a result of the pandemic. As a result of the spread of COVID- 19, economic uncertainties could continue to impact our operations. Any potential incremental financial impact is unknown at this time. At this time, certain states are reducing mandated operating restrictions and efforts are underway to provide vaccinations to as many people as possible. During 2020 and 2021, government issued several rounds of COVID- 19 relief and stimulus payments and other programs to stimulate economic activity and facilitate an economic recovery. The Company's business was initially adversely affected as doctors offices, dental offices, veterinarian offices and non-bank consumer lending accounts were ordered closed in connection with curbing the spread of the pandemic. As these doctors, dental and veterinarian offices re-opened, these businesses quickly recovered and returned to levels higher than pre-COVID. Consumer lending merchants were adversely affected by COVID relief payments made during the pandemic and the pause placed on past due amounts owed. The level of activity for consumer lending merchants has not returned to pre-COVID levels. We received a gain during COVID in our prepaid business line, as we were able to work in conjunction with major cities across the U.S. to use our prepaid debit cards to facilitate the transfer of money via our debit cards from city foundations to the local residents in need of financial assistance. The impacts and recovery from the COVID- 19 pandemic are still a work in process. We were impacted in the magnitude of other payment processors as our customer base had limited exposure to retail facing businesses. With that framework, we will continue to monitor the overall impact on our operations and take necessary steps to ensure the safety of our employees and the well being of our customers.
