That seems like really low numbers. Ex-Twitter is (in theory) a multi-billion dollar company and Visa should be a "whale" of a client... $77.5k is nothing for advertising revenue. A drop in the expense budget. That's not even one software engineer. How does the company stay afloat if numbers look like that?
