I agree. There are already many businesses who do accept both e-gold and creditcards on their site. There is no reason why they would not be willing to accept reversible e-gold spends, once you have set up the system properly and made it easy for them to add on their site. > > Umm, once again. The way I saw it, the comments made by JP etc that "only 4 or 5 customers will come of this" is negative rubbish. I guarantee you thousands of users will try the system. As long as the marketing is done correctly, and any one who has some marketing knowledge can make this idea really work. > > I agree repudiable is best for many, but how many people (I guess in the tens of thousands) have been scammed within e-gold from people who closed up shop > eg games and HYIP's. These are a prime market for repudiable as the users are safe in the knowledge that they can stop payment if required - and keeps the merchant more honest! Clearly non repudiable is very convenient for the merchant, but all the risk is supposed to be taken by the customer. Repudiable is very safe and convenient for the customer, but all the risk comes on the merchant. Actually my system cuts it somewhere in the middle , because the "Lock Payment" button I give to the buyer, is an in between solution. It gives a protection to the buyer, but it does not leave the seller completely in the dark either. So, in fact, with my system both are taking some of the risk, and that's something which CC are not offering today.
