With Neovia’s Netbanx, merchants can accept online payment via VISA, Maestro, Diners, American Express, Carte Bleue, Carta Si and JCB debit or credit cards. The gateway also supports non-card local payment types including Giropay, ELV, DirectPay24, Ukash, iDeal, Neteller and direct bank payments. The online parcel delivery service readyparcels.com is one of the online merchants which have already integrated PayPal via Neovia’s Netbanx payments gateway.
Neovias payment suite includes the Netbanx international payments gateway, the Neteller e-wallet and Net+ cards. Netbanx allows merchants to accept card and non-card payments via multiple channels such as online, contact centres, mail order and automated phone systems. Most recently, Neovia has won a contract from VirWoX, the Austrian virtual currency exchange, for online payments processing.
In 2002, eBays online payments subsidiary was accused of violating the USA Patriot Act by processing Internet gambling transactions and it was withdrawn for the online gaming market by its parent company until 2006. PayPal has changed its long-time policy against processing online gambling payments, beginning in the UK market, by making its payment processing services available once again for online gambling payments transfer in the UK. The company enables gamers to send and receive money on the internet without disclosing financial details, via their credit cards, bank accounts or account balances.
Editors notes: The interesting thing is that both companies have a “history” of falling under the threat of US legal prosecution. Since 2006, PayPal has taken cautious steps when selecting its partners among gambling operators. Until now. Does PayPal plan a change in strategy and thus stage a comeback into the online gaming market?
