and neither is Firepay, or for that matter most any third party provider of internet payment services. Since they aren't banks, they are not FDIC insured to protect our funds.
They go belly up and we're screwed if we have funds in there.
So my question is: How much cash do you feel comfortable letting float in these uninsured companies that perform much like banks, but aren't?
Personally I plan on transferring a $1000.00 of it tomorrow. So I guess that means my comfort level is exceeded when I go over a thousand or so. Am I paranoid, or am I actually letting too much build up before transferring?
