ClickandBuy’s vast network of merchants, users and payments are another reason to consider ClickandBuy. With over 40 different payment methods covering Europe, the United States and Mexico, ClickandBuy instantly provides digital content providers with a new audience that they have never reached before. A case in point is the billing of digital content to a phone bill. Through phone billing, merchants reach people who would rather not bill content to a credit or debit card. Not only does ClickandBuy offer the traditional payment methods of credit, debit and ACH, but through phone billing, it also provides merchants with the ability to reach over 100 million online users through agreements with 1,400 telcos. ClickandBuy has received three major venture capital investments in the past year. Just recently, Intel Capital invested an undisclosed amount of money. The partnership between ClickandBuy and Intel will enable ClickandBuy to expand into new markets as well as allow Intel to use ClickandBuy on various Intel products. In 2006 ClickandBuy received $23 million in venture funding and Deutsche Telekom (DT) bought a 10 percent stake in ClickandBuy in August 2006. Part of the DT investment is the opportunity to take payments through the 17,000 Hot Spots of T-Online globally. Many well-known providers, such as Apple iTunes, T-Online, Electronic Arts, iVillage, Univision, and Skype use ClickandBuy.
