I'm organizing a Xamarin Hack day next weekend and anyone is welcome to
come along. http://xamarinhackday.com/
If you haven't heard of Xamarin, it's a leading cross platform mobile
solution you can find out more here:
You can use the web version with automation, but that still blocks if
overused.

You also have the option of PinPayments, they've been amazing for us.

Hi Jez
Pin is a different model, with Pin you don't have a gateway account with
the bank and you don't pay those fees. Pin will do a standard bank transfer
into your account. The only little issue there's a 10 day delay on payment.
Overall I think Pin is underrated.

We used ANZ for banking and Pin Payments for a gateway. Pin was painless to
setup and they accept a multiple currencies.

Inexperienced entrepreneurs will always undervalue software engineering but

I think it's the case that Sydney has more inexperienced entrepreneurs than

Nobody is ragging on non-techs, a successful company is always a team

Reading between the lines what people are saying is that the marketing is

Yes, I also feel these GA emails are misleading. Nothing beats a good

The whole GA thing seems just too greedy to me, don't see how they're
