| Look to the future everyone! It is time we started getting paid at the speed of our internet: instantaneously. Canadian online financial services company Entertainment Systems Incorporated has a subsidiary named Citadel Commerce that has made known its new and enhanced Citadel Direct payment solution to support instant and low cost bank transfers for a range of nations. While using local bank transfers, the payment solution Citadel Direct allows customers to safely pay for purchased items. After logging into their very own internet banking system, customers may complete a transaction by simply transferring money into a Citadel run account. The new augmentations will give the customers an option to choose instant bank transfers or rapid bank transfers. The latter, rapid bank transfers, could take anywhere from minutes to hours to a day to go through. The customer will be able to manually enter their data with payments completed upon the receipt of funds into a Citadel bank account. The alternate choice of making payments is known as the instant bank transfer. Here the Citadel Company requires a proprietary payment assistant that can be downloaded onto the personal computer of the player. The payment assistant automatically completes required fields on an online banking system followed by the instantaneous credit of any payment. “We believe that instant and low cost local bank transfers for an international base of countries provides an extremely attractive alternative to credit card payments, which are expensive and expose both the merchant and the consumer to higher risk,” said Michael Meeks, President of Entertainment Systems Incorporated and Citadel Commerce. For those who were questioning the reliability of Citadel Commerce’s new Citadel Direct payment program a sense of ease should come with the knowledge that this is all white labeled. The payment assistant can handle foreign currencies and supports international treasury management functions. Payments made in Bulgaria, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Italy, Mexico, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Sweden, Spain and the United Kingdom are currently supported. All of these countries have experienced rapid integration by the program’s sophisticated back end support that put to rights a large network of international bank accounts. | | | | |
