So I'm very excited. Confidence to act to me is all about trust. And the trust that I feel I have in all of our teams and departments and individuals that make up Samba gives me the confidence to believe that we're destined for great things in twenty twenty three. To me, confidence to act means be brave, share your ideas, kind of things, ask for feedback, don't be afraid of feedback, and just be willing to grow, and improve. Hey, team. What confidence to act means to me is having the courage to ask the hard questions, to take the risk and put yourself out there and speak up when you need to. And I get that confidence because I have faith in what we do and what we provide to our clients, and I've seen it. I've heard it. The impacts are real in there, so that alone gives me the confidence to act. Confidence act to me means just to go for it, just to do it. Put aside all of the the thoughts that come into your head of how is this gonna work, what's gonna happen, blah blah blah blah blah. You know, we have a great team. We have great resources. And to me, it literally just means making the decision to go. Sometimes the worst decision to make is to not act at all. And in this sense, set aside your worries, just make it My name is TJ Krecher. I am a customer success manager here within our larger success organization. And what gives me the confidence to act is knowing that I have the support and the confidence of my peers. And I know that if I fall, they'll be there to pick me up and it's what keeps me moving forward and it keeps me trying new things and pushing the boundaries of my role. Miss Jennifer Pope, and I'm a customer service representative. And what gives me the confidence to act is is knowing that I have a team behind me that can help me if I have any questions or if I need any assistance with anything. And I'm Nancy Luca. I'm a customer success manager for the workforce verticals team. And I actually looked it up confidence just to kinda get a little more information behind it. So the feeling of relief that one can rely on someone or something firm trust. And I think that's what we have been finding on our teams is that we if we have questions or if we have something that comes up that we need help with, we can turn to each other on our team and we can get help and we can reach out to team Samba if we have some questions, and they and they are also there to help us out. So that is where I I get my confidence to act. Thanks, guys. Andrea Snyder, customer success manager on the channel partner vertical. What gives me confidence to act is it it kind of comes internally. It comes from being a customer success manager to some of our largest and most strategic Samba accounts. Those customers trust in us They want us to be their trusted adviser. And knowing that gives me the confidence to act almost on their behalf. And then along with all of my three colleagues here, knowing that I have the support from my team, not only my direct team, but teams across the organization to collaborate with. This is Catherine Moore from the insurance vertical. Our team has a solid foundation of support and dependability. We equip each other to to support our customers showing strength in numbers.

Fifth Third, Priority and CSI deals put a premium on payments built into software

Fifth Third, Priority and CSI deals put a premium on payments built into software

Fifth Third led a strategic investment in Payload, Priority Commerce agreed to acquire IntelliPay, and CSI acquired Qolo in a series of summer transactions, PYMNTS reported. Together, the deals point to buyers valuing payments technology already integrated into the software customers use, not just standalone processing capacity. For operators, that means the entity holding payment data can change hands without the front-end software changing.

  • 01BCG puts software providers with integrated payments at 36% of small and midsize business acquiring revenue in 2024, heading to 45% by 2028, a benchmark for where merchant payment spend is shifting.
  • 02Finance and IT leaders at firms running property, practice management or utility billing software should check who actually owns the payment module in their contract, because that is the asset being bought.

System integrators decide whether factory tech pays off, Smart Industry argues

System integrators decide whether factory tech pays off, Smart Industry argues

Smart Industry's Sept. 9, 2026 piece argues plant technology creates no business value until system integrators fit it into existing operations and workflows. Its summer coverage on upskilling, institutional knowledge and a Deloitte and Manufacturing Institute technician report points the same way. The payoff sits in the integration budget.

  • 01Smart Industry's framing moves the buying question from which platform to license to who integrates it and how that engagement is scoped, which puts the system integrator line item at the center of the return rather than in implementation overhead.
  • 02Gartner figures cited by Quality Magazine show 24% of industrial enterprises using IoT have implemented digital twins and 42% plan to, suggesting most IoT-using plants still have digital twin integration work ahead.
  • 03The Deloitte and Manufacturing Institute report, as covered by Smart Industry, says AI can embed skills into workflows to address technician demand; the sharper question for a plant manager is whether that changes headcount or changes what each technician can cover.

ChatGPT test ads can invite users to chat with brands like Wayfair

ChatGPT test ads can invite users to chat with brands like Wayfair

OpenAI is now running ChatGPT ads that invite users to open a chat with the advertiser, with Wayfair among the first brands spotted using the format, Ad Age reports. Advertisers still receive only aggregated impressions and clicks. For retailers, the media buy now comes with a conversation to staff, while OpenAI's Plus, Pro, Business and Enterprise tiers stay ad-free.

  • 01Conversational ads, as the Wayfair format implies, shift a media buy into a staffing/automation question: something on the retailer’s side has to answer shoppers.
  • 02Advertisers get aggregated impressions and clicks only; the conversational intent that triggered the ad stays inside OpenAI, so attribution will be coarser than keyword-level search data.
  • 03Ads run only on ChatGPT's free and $8 Go tiers. Plus, Pro, Business and Enterprise plans are excluded, so licensed company workspaces should not see them if that policy holds.
