 of participation in our STIP as well as a separate sales incentive plan. For 2023 and 2024, Mr. Silva’s target opportunity under the STIP and under the applicable sales incentive plan was 50% of his base salary. |

Plan Terms – 2024 Performance Metrics The 2024 STIP provided for a funding pool based on actual performance for the period beginning on January 1, 2024, and ending on December 31, 2024, as measured in two categories (the same as used in 2023):

| • |     | Adjusted EBITDA (40% weighting) |

| • |     | Revenue Net of Interchange Growth (60% weighting) |

Final payout determinations for our executive officers could have increased or decreased by up to 10% based on the CEO’s assessment of their individual performance (for executives other than himself) and recommendation to the Compensation Committee. Similarly, our CEO’s final payout could have increased or decreased by up to 10% based on the Compensation Committee’s assessment of his individual performance. Payments under the 2024 STIP could have ranged from 0% to 200% of an executive’s target annual cash incentive award, depending on the Company’s and the executive officer’s actual performance for the year. However, the aggregate of all 2024 STIP payments could not have exceeded the aggregate pool funded for payouts for all participants based on corporate performance. The Compensation Committee believes this plan design aligns with our strategy of driving profitable growth, which is critical to shareholders and long-term success. The 2024 performance goals for the two financial performance metrics are shown below.
