Something to keep in mind, Gary, is that credit cards expire after 
awhile. Most of the time, the expiration date is 2-4 years in the 
future, and when it expires, the bank sends you a new one. If Greg 
trusts you, and he gets the Groo card, he might be willing to send 
you the old card when it expires. (And of course you won't know the 
new expiration date).

If Greg wanted to "cheat" a little, and is generous, he could (after 
he gets his card) tell the bank it was "lost" and ask them to issue 
him a new one. Then the old one could be given away to a Groop 
member, as it would no longer be valid.

On the other hand, many banks do "branded" credit cards where they 
allow an organization to put their logo on that bank's credit cards, 
which are then offered to members of that organization. Maybe Sergio 
and Mark could get some US bank to do a "branded" Groo card?
