KK, what's the story on Visa in January?

Nice posts Redeye. There are minor things here or there that you may not be fully informed on, or have gotten slightly wrong, but with the situation as complex and fluid as it is, NO ONE is in a position to know everything that is going on in each VISA region (and with individual acquirers for that matter). Within the various regions other processing solutions open and close on an everchanging basis...as regards to MCC 5967, and it's been REALLY nuts every since the ETA show last Sept. when the IPSP regs were rolled out by Martin Elliots people in Seattle.

Sometimes it gives me really bad headaches trying to keep up. I still work as a broker to assist merchants in finding accounts (mostly offshore...and BTW, there is ONE acquirer in the EU that is writing new IPSP business), but I have recently moved to DUOCASH....in looking at alternate billing systems, they were the ones that excited me the most. (someone actually started a thread about DUOCASH yesterday).

If you're going to be at internext in Jan, I would be interested in comparing some notes over a drink sometime....

BTW, Just to match what you say about the VISA rules. I've actually seen them.....leafed through them.....they look like a set of encyclopedia!

Cheers!
