Greetings to the list... This is the first time I have posted here but some of you already know me as we are in the process of adding e-gold market maker facilities and debit cards to our payment processing system which is essentially designed for low-value international payments such as e-commerce, mail order and magazine subscriptions.
I would like to comment that the offshore debit card we offer, now in the final stages of beta testing and launching later this month, offers a number of facilities which should make integration into the international banking system easier and I will compare to the SR card mentioned below: > > As Michael said, you can extract your Standard Reserve funds at over > > 601,000 ATM's worldwide, and our ATM cards can be used at over 3 million > > POS units worldwide wherever the Mastercard/Cirrus/Maestro ATM or > > pin-based POS is used. The Fidex Maestro card is a Maestro/Cirrus debit card, with base currency of US dollars although it is not issued in the USA. It works in most ATMs worldwide and also in EFTPOS systems, both pin-based and where a signature is required. > > For $5 a transaction, up from $3.50. This includes a $195 account creation > fee and a $4/month fee. What is the currency purchase fee? At least, there > is no longer a annual fee on top of a monthly fee. > For Fidex debit cards there is a $20 account opening fee and a simple $12 per month maintenance fee. There is no transaction fee for POS transactions, and no currency conversion fee for USD transactions. Also there is no fee for loading e-gold (at e-gold's USD rate) on to the card which is possible via an on-line, fully automated interface. Clearing transactions from e-gold to the card unfortunately takes 24-48 hours which is the fault of the international banking system, not us! There is a transaction fee for cash withdrawals which varies depending on the network and location. > The card isn't linked directly to the account, is it? It is called a > stored value ATM card and can only hold $5,000. The Instant World account > has no account cap mentioned. Our cards have a cash withdrawal limit of $10,000 per day and a POS limit of $25,000 per day. There is no maximum or minimum balance. Finally we can also accept wire transfers in all major currencies which can be credited to the account at very favorable exchange rates, even negotiated individually for larger amounts. If anybody is interested in ordering one of these cards, they can do so now... please email me offline.
