Online Shopping Mall
Sell products or host stores with your own community shopping mall.
This is not a nationally shared mall, but one you can brand to your own
identity. As it is a mall, your mall, you can rent stores to community
members or even companies interested in targeting your particular community!
Stores can optionally use our credits-based currency system (described below)
giving members a single source of payment processing and putting you in total control of
currency flow.
Integrated credits-base e-commerce
Take advantage of our unique e-commerce credits system. It's
a way you can surcharge for premium areas in your online community. A
user can maintain an electronic wallet (in the form of 'credits' applied to his account)
and use this currency across all community services. Credits are
drawn down automatically from this account for any fee-based services used on the
system. For example, a customer can deduct an amount to place a classified ad or
download a special file from the File Libraries - all without having to pull out his
credit card each time.
Every service has built into it options for surcharging:
Charge for a special event chat with a celebrity, participation in a special forum, even
sending an email - the options are endless.
You can even reverse the process, and pay users for
participation!
Our cross-service credits-based accounting system is
extremely powerful and key for creating a profit-generating web community. Click here for details.
Credit Card and Online Check Processing
You can accept credit card payment across all services on your site. We've
partnered with FullEcom (www.fullecom.com), a leading provider of processing services both
in the U.S. and overseas, to provide you with a validated credit card transaction while
simultaneously giving your customer an encrypted secure, simple, and completed sales
transaction - all at a low cost.
Merchant Account Services
We've eliminated the hassle and big price
tag of applying for your own merchant account (the ability to accept credit cards) through
our relationships with fullecomm and their partners.
Fulfillment Services
We've also negotiated optional fulfillment
and distribution services for your products. Call for details.
