Epoch Introduces epassporte Visa Debit Card
>> EpochPress Release
Jan. 9, 2003
LOS ANGELES ? Over the past several months, Epoch has been working toward
the launch of a new product called epassporte that, the company says, will
change the way business is done on the Internet.
What is it?
It is a Visa card. It is a PLUS ATM Card. It is the answer to billing for
previously blocked transactions. epassporte has an unlimited number of
potential applications. One of which is a solution for processing high-risk
and previously blocked transactions that might not otherwise be accepted
due to scrubbing. It is also an anonymous way for people to buy adult
entertainment online, without the charges appearing on their regular credit
card statement. epassporte also includes peer-to-peer payment
functionality, which has virtually limitless applications.
How Does It Work?
Epassporte is a Visa debit card. It functions just like any other Visa card
for online transactions and can be obtained in real-time in virtually
seconds from epassporte's homepage. The online use of epassporte is
accomplished with the epassporte Virtual Visa, meaning the card number,
expiration date, and CVV2 number are obtained at the moment that the
epassporte account is loaded. The epassporte Virtual Visa may be loaded
from any Visa or MasterCard. Once the epassporte account is loaded with
stored value, the epassporte Virtual Visa is created instantly, online and
ready to use for purchases. And of course Epoch has seamlessly integrated
this entire process into its systems.
Why?
Why use epassporte? If you are a surfer and live in a country whose
transactions have been blocked, now you can purchase online using a
pre-funded debit card from epassporte. Since the surfers' credit card is
being charged using a special code to load the Virtual Visa, it is
extremelly difficult to charge back. Additionally, the epassporte Virtual
Visa provides anonymity for the surfer because all online purchases will
appear only in the epassporte electronic account statement and never on a
mailed card statement.
Webmaster Applications
Epassporte is much more than a tool for billing. It is also a peer-to-peer
payment mechanism. Now you can move funds to any other epassporte account
holder around the world at any time with the click of a button. It costs
less than the price of a stamp to transfer funds from one account holder to
another with no minimum or maximum limits. This means no more wire fees; no
more checks to write, stamp and mail; no more Federal Express or UPS
charges to send payments to your affiliates; no waiting for the check to
arrive; and foreign Webmasters will have no further problems with receiving
funds in a timely manner and without unnecessary consequences or additional
costs.
Show Me The Money!
"Epassporte is a Virtual Visa and I don't do all my shopping online. I want
cash"!
No problem. The epassporte Visa Electron card is the plastic companion to
the Virtual Visa account. It arrives to your address in about 10 days. Use
your epassporte VISA Electron card to get cash at ATMs bearing the PLUS
and/or VISA logo or to make purchases at PIN-based merchants anywhere Visa
is accepted. One account, two numbers. Use epassporte online or around the
corner ? all over the world.
Pay your affiliates, your hosting provider, your talent, or anyone that you
normally send payments to. No other payment method is this easy and convenient.
