3. Get your shit out of pay pal. If you think Im bullshitting you ask Joe over at the Gallery People. If your account remotely smells of pussy they will eventually shut it down. And it really doesnt matter if you have a email or letter from any high ranking PalPal exec. When you cant get to thousands of dollars you'll understand what I mean.
I disagree ...
ePassporte is a long way from replacing paypal ... I am gradually phasing over between the 2, but I'm not going to follow the 'sky is falling' idea that PayPal is going to ban accounts randomly because they smell pussy. I use mine for processing poster & merchandise sales on ImogenBailey.com, sending money, paying invoices ... even though I agree of the risk if you are processing adult transactions, I can't see anyone being able to drop paypal and replace it smoothly with ePassporte.

4. The success of ePassporte is going to come from webmasters like us giving the users a reason to get that card. I believe you can give them an incentive that will move them off a regular Visa and on to an ePassporte.
I agree ... I am looking at using it entirely within 6 months, provided they can improve the service to the standard of paypal ... But we have to be realistic, paypal has had a huge head start on the market, and I get the impression that ePassporte isn't really 'finished' yet ... as in, I don't think it was ready for the market ...

I will be supporting ePassporte in every way possible, can't wait to see what they come up with
