Such automatic settlement - intended to
ensure that a customer's credit card is only debited when purchased goods
are shipped -- should encourage
online shopping in the burgeoning Asian e-commerce market by increasing security and efficiency for both merchants and buyers.
"Our joint merchant settlement solution with Federal Express should have a
far reaching impact on e-commerce in the Asia Pacific region," said Gregory
Pek, president and CEO of First Ecom.com. Pek said that the firms planned to create bundled
e-commerce services combining online
payments from First Ecom.com with FedEx's shipping services, delivering a unique
solution to the region.
The automated system will combine First Ecom.com's global
payment processing gateway and FedEx's state-of-the-art bar code tracking
system and is intended to give merchants a single multi-currency solution to
track and record delivery and payment of goods sold.
When developed and deployed the merchant settlement system will enable
merchants to automatically apply for transaction settlement upon shipment of
goods by FedEx, eliminates the need for
complex tracking and offering a real-time
solution.
