Show Notes

Welcome back to the second official interview in our Paycast Network at SEAA 2026 series! In this episode, host Chase Gunnell sits down with Mitch Buscemi from GR4VY to demystify payment orchestration infrastructure and explain how an agnostic cloud vault protects portfolios, optimizes checkout routing, and leverages a unified dashboard to streamline sub-merchant data for ISOs. After flawlessly nailing our local Miami trivia question, Mitch shares the brilliant "Shift+4" origin story behind the GR4VY name, passes along an unexpected city planning book recommendation, and closes out the interview by facing off in our signature "Sell Me This Duck" challenge—delivering a hilariously creative pitch on why a giant rubber duck is your ultimate bathtub "loophole insurance policy."
