Why Use
Alternatives?
“Of the 64% of online Europeans
that do own a credit card, more
than half will not use their card
to buy online!” (Forrester Research)
The Great Divide
Credit cards are the most popular
method of payment in the United
States. However, this is not the case in
the rest of the world and alternative
payment solutions have established
themselves in a variety of ways to
further monetize a merchants’ website.
From local postal derived payment
systems to sophisticated bank
programs, most countries have their
own domestic online payment and
clearing system that consumers are
using daily to make online payments.

It is important for merchants to
understand that credit cards are not the
primary payment method in the world.

While perceptions about money and
credit may cause some cultures to
spend differently, economic realities
also play a key role. Some countries
just haven't had the access to credit,
nor a sizable middle class to fuel its
use and as such non-credit card
payment schemes have flourished.

A study by
CyberSource Corp.
found that websites
providing four or more
payment methods
other than credit cards
had a sales conversion
rate 12 percent higher
than those offering just
one online payment
option in addition to
credit cards.

important role, but are not the only
reasons; what if you can’t read the
payment page and you don’t know
how much you’re paying because the
amount displayed is not in your local
currency? Furthermore, what if your
preferred and trusted payment method
is not offered? Not everybody has a
credit card, so payment processors in
numerous countries have recognized
the need to offer domestic payment
solutions to their consumers and have
developed alternative solutions to
satisfy the demand.

In other cases, security and local
requirements combined with the
advancement of technology are the
driver to implement alternative
payment methods. For example, all
debit cards issued in China, Japan,

More Options, Means More Sales
Why would you decrease your sales potential by limiting the ways
potential customers can pay for your products or services online?

Our Market

Service

Languages Improves Sales

Our customers are online merchants
from all geographic locations in all
categories and sizes. The merchant
underwriting process for alternative
solutions is different from typical credit
card merchant accounts, because the
risks associated with many alternative
solutions is minimized due to the lack
of chargebacks and payment reversal
options for consumers.

We are a dedicated team of people
that understand the business and we
have proven this to our customers for
more than decade. We strive to get
our merchants up and running in 48
hours or less and we provide customer
support 24/7 to our merchants and
their clients.

As part of our service offering, all of
our payment pages are automatically
displayed in the language of the user.
We use a GEO-IP feature that detects
where the enduser is located based on
their IP, and every step of the payment
process is then displayed in their
native language and backed by local
customer support phone numbers.

Our focus has also been on
consumers and although they are not
our direct customers, they are the
actual users of our systems and as
such we consider them part of our
target market. Consumers from all
over the world are familiar with our
products and services as they are
provided domestically by their trusted
service providers.
How We Market
A three tier approach has been
employed to cover all possible
marketing channels; we market
directly to merchants; we use
independent sales organizations; and
we incorporate our solutions into the
offering of other payment providers.
Competitiveness
Our services are straight forward and
our fees are competitive and are
similar to payment card transactions,
and we don’t believe in charging our
clients upfront fees.

More Options, Means More Sales
The success of your online business
depends on sales. Offering alternative
payment methods improves consumer
confidence, but the primary reason
why you should look at alternative
solutions to credit cards is simple; you
can increase your sales and revenues
by simply adding these options to your
existing platform.
In the United States, alternative
payment solutions, such as ACH, are
complementing the check-out pages
of merchants that offer traditional
credit card payment methods.
Alternative payments are not replacing
credit cards, they merely add more
options for consumers to select from.

Comprehensive and Supportive
The word solutions is used in
conjunction with alternative payments,
as they provide a complete set of
features, options and services that
often go far beyond facilitating a single
payment. Fraud scrubbing tools and a
variety of address, IP and account
verification services are included,
foreign currencies are automatically
posted at the appropriate exchange
rates and pages are shown in local
languages with local phone and email
contact information. Alternative
solutions also include extensive
reporting and fraud management
tools, while retaining simplified set-up
and management.

“Austin Morgan, a 24-year-old American teaching in Japan, who
blogs about how financial practices differ around the world at
foreignersfinances.com, says, "Living abroad has reminded me that
credit cards aren't as popular everywhere as they seem to be in
America," he says. “I rarely see credit cards used here.”

  • 4. Why Use Alternatives? “Of the 64% of online Europeans that do own a credit card, more than half will not use their card to buy online!” (Forrester Research) The Great Divide Credit cards are the most popular method of payment in the United States. However, this is not the case in the rest of the world and alternative payment solutions have established themselves in a variety of ways to further monetize a merchants’ website. From local postal derived payment systems to sophisticated bank programs, most countries have their own domestic online payment and clearing system that consumers are using daily to make online payments. It is important for merchants to understand that credit cards are not the primary payment method in the world. While perceptions about money and credit may cause some cultures to spend differently, economic realities also play a key role. Some countries just haven't had the access to credit, nor a sizable middle class to fuel its use and as such non-credit card payment schemes have flourished. A study by CyberSource Corp. found that websites providing four or more payment methods other than credit cards had a sales conversion rate 12 percent higher than those offering just one online payment option in addition to credit cards. important role, but are not the only reasons; what if you can’t read the payment page and you don’t know how much you’re paying because the amount displayed is not in your local currency? Furthermore, what if your preferred and trusted payment method is not offered? Not everybody has a credit card, so payment processors in numerous countries have recognized the need to offer domestic payment solutions to their consumers and have developed alternative solutions to satisfy the demand. In other cases, security and local requirements combined with the advancement of technology are the driver to implement alternative payment methods. For example, all debit cards issued in China, Japan, Cultural differences also fosters Korea and many other Asian Pacific different payment habits. In Germany countries do not work on the for example, with over 65 million traditional credit card networks.

  • 5. More Options, Means More Sales Why would you decrease your sales potential by limiting the ways potential customers can pay for your products or services online? Our Market Service Languages Improves Sales Our customers are online merchants from all geographic locations in all categories and sizes. The merchant underwriting process for alternative solutions is different from typical credit card merchant accounts, because the risks associated with many alternative solutions is minimized due to the lack of chargebacks and payment reversal options for consumers. We are a dedicated team of people that understand the business and we have proven this to our customers for more than decade. We strive to get our merchants up and running in 48 hours or less and we provide customer support 24/7 to our merchants and their clients. As part of our service offering, all of our payment pages are automatically displayed in the language of the user. We use a GEO-IP feature that detects where the enduser is located based on their IP, and every step of the payment process is then displayed in their native language and backed by local customer support phone numbers. Our focus has also been on consumers and although they are not our direct customers, they are the actual users of our systems and as such we consider them part of our target market. Consumers from all over the world are familiar with our products and services as they are provided domestically by their trusted service providers. How We Market A three tier approach has been employed to cover all possible marketing channels; we market directly to merchants; we use independent sales organizations; and we incorporate our solutions into the offering of other payment providers. Competitiveness Our services are straight forward and our fees are competitive and are similar to payment card transactions, and we don’t believe in charging our clients upfront fees. ©2013 - 2000Charge, Inc. All Rights Reserved. More Options, Means More Sales The success of your online business depends on sales. Offering alternative payment methods improves consumer confidence, but the primary reason why you should look at alternative solutions to credit cards is simple; you can increase your sales and revenues by simply adding these options to your existing platform. In the United States, alternative payment solutions, such as ACH, are complementing the check-out pages of merchants that offer traditional credit card payment methods. Alternative payments are not replacing credit cards, they merely add more options for consumers to select from. Comprehensive and Supportive The word solutions is used in conjunction with alternative payments, as they provide a complete set of features, options and services that often go far beyond facilitating a single payment. Fraud scrubbing tools and a variety of address, IP and account verification services are included, foreign currencies are automatically posted at the appropriate exchange rates and pages are shown in local languages with local phone and email contact information. Alternative solutions also include extensive reporting and fraud management tools, while retaining simplified set-up and management. “Austin Morgan, a 24-year-old American teaching in Japan, who blogs about how financial practices differ around the world at foreignersfinances.com, says, "Living abroad has reminded me that credit cards aren't as popular everywhere as they seem to be in America," he says. “I rarely see credit cards used here.” Business Case - Page 5
