During the first quarter of 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of a controlling interest in Loyalty Partner (March 1, 2011) for total consideration of $616 million ($585 million plus $31 million in cash acquired). In addition, the Company may acquire the remaining noncontrolling equity interest (NCI) over the next five years at a price based on business performance, which currently has an estimated fair value of $150 million.

Accertify is an online fraud solution provider, and Revolution Money, which was subsequently rebranded by the Company as Serve, is a provider of secure person-to-person payment services through an internet-based platform.
