  • Publication number: 20170255926
    Abstract: A stored value design and distribution portal includes a computer-executable service that exposes a sponsor portal interface for receiving user supplied information for customizing a stored value card from a sponsor of the stored value card, and generates a stored value card design using the user supplied information in which the stored value card design is stored in a repository. Once generated, the service then publishes, using one or more second portal interfaces, the stored value card design for purchase as a stored value card by a consumer from the repository, and transmits the stored value card to the consumer.

  • Patent number: 8780571
    Abstract: An interposer lead provides a connection between an integrated circuit and a circuit board. The interposer lead includes a first leg for interfacing with the circuit board. The interposer lead also includes a second leg disposed generally parallel to the first leg for interfacing with an IC electrical lead extending from the integrated circuit. A connecting portion operatively connects the first leg and the second leg. The interposer lead further includes a lip extending non-parallel from the second leg for limiting movement of the IC electrical lead on the second leg.
