steffie · 10-15-2002, 08:33 PM

The awaited CCbill Email is here, I didn't see anything about Visa. So uhm, did it just go away? Or what??

Dear CCBill Webmaster -

Earlier this year we introduced you to Version 3.0 of the CCBill Webmaster Admin. The new system incorporated many new features and enhancements to the previous version and offered powerful stats, reports, admin functions, and a useful Subscription Forms Solution, considered the most customizable subscription form system available today.

Since the March 2002 Version 3.0 launch, CCBill has been working on developing additional features to make the system more powerful than ever for you to administer your CCBill Accounts. The latest set of system upgrades are being made available to you at no added cost and include improvements to the rebilling system, as well as the addition of several new revenue generation tools for you to maximize your potential online revenues. Please note: If you are not currently utilizing the new custom Subscription forms on the newest CCBill Admin system we urge you to set up your new subscription forms immediately at https://reports.ccbill.com/altindex.cgi in order to take advantage of the following new features:

NEW Pop Up Screens for Signup Upsales and Cancellation Discounts ? Available TODAY!
In an effort to help further maximize your potential revenue opportunities from membership sales, Version 3.0 has added a new Pop up features that enables you to capitalize on both your signup and cancellation activity through your sites. This added functionality provides you with powerful marketing capabilities, allowing you to up sell to new customers once they have successfully completed the signup process and/or to offer discounted rates to any existing members who are attempting to cancel their membership activity.

Both the signup and cancellation Pop-ups are opt-in functions and are fully customizable, allowing you the opportunity to effectively cross-promote your different websites to a captive audience of ready buyers, as well as a means to creatively recover lost membership sales before they have a chance to leave the site. Setting up these Pop ups is an easy process.

To access the Signup Upsale Popup:

Log on to the Webmaster Admin Version 3.0
Click the Tools link found on the yellow Menu Tab
Click the Custom Forms Tab
Click the Upsale Setup Menu Item to start the Form Upsale Wizard
Proceed through the Wizard
To access the Cancellation Discount Popup:

Log on to the Webmaster Admin Version 3.0
Click the Tools link found on the yellow Menu Tab
Click the Services Setup Tab
Click the Loyalty/Cancel Discounts Menu Item
Proceed to choose your desired Subaccount and Create New Discount
NEW Processing of Korean Debit Cards ? Available TODAY!
Before now, Korean traffic converted poorly, offering higher chargebacks and screened-out country traffic. But now, because of a strategic partnership with the Local Korean Banking Network, CCBill can accept a full line of Korean Debit Cards from Consumers originating from Korean IP?s. These local Korean Debit Cards (Korean KEB, Korean KOOKMIN, Korean LG, Korean BC, and Korean SAMSUNG) are issued by the local banks in Korea, and are not part of the Visa or MasterCard networks.

Best of all, the CCBill system handles these transactions for you invisibly. As the system reviews the bin numbers of your online customer?s credit card, all Korean Debit Card transactions are automatically sent to the Local Korean Bank Network for processing. And because most Korean nationals use these cards regularly, client conversions on Korean traffic should be impressive.

NEW Rebill 24 System ? Available Monday, October 21st!
We have improved the CCBill rebilling system to provide you with more accurate and detailed membership and accounting information. Previously, CCBill processed and reported on recurring sales on a daily basis. Regardless of when a member initially signed up, all rebills were recorded at the same time ? 1:00am - each day. This resulted in lag issues on the consumer side for their trial period and for Webmasters in accurately accounting for their rebills. For example, if a consumer joined a site at 10:00am, although they are granted immediate membership access upon approval of payment, the system would not record their membership until 1:00am the following morning. Effectively, this gave them 15 additional hours on their trial membership before the clock actually started ticking.

In an attempt to address these timing issues and provide for more accurate reporting, we developed the new Rebill 24 System. Rebill 24 will now process and report on your rebills on an hourly basis. With these detailed hourly reports, you will be able to more accurately manage your trial memberships and monitor your rebilling activity. This information is easily accessible 24x7 through the Scheduled Rebill Report.

To access the Scheduled Rebill Report:

Log on to the Webmaster Admin Version 3.0
Click the Reports link found on the yellow Menu Tab
Click the Analysis Tab
Click the Scheduled Rebills Menu Item to
Proceed to choose your desired Report Time Frame and Subaccount, then click Submit
The new report will contain the same valuable stats as the old Scheduled Rebill Report, however it will now offer you the ability to drill down by selected day, to view your detailed hourly activity for that day.

NEW Global Forms -- Beginning Monday, October 21st!
It has been estimated that 50% of all online sales will be sold outside the US by 2004. As a result, catering your website to a diverse International audience is extremely important to your long term success. To help you capitalize on the huge revenue potential of this global market, we are excited to introduce our new multilingual Global Forms Solution for your website. Now International consumers have the benefit of signing up for membership to your site in their native languages of French, German, Italian, Spanish, Korean or Japanese. The European and Asian markets, in particular, represent the fastest growing market of online consumers behind the United States. By providing your information in these native languages, you gain access to a significant market of online consumers.

With the addition of these translated forms, you can feature many different language versions easily and seamlessly from your Website without the additional cost of creating and maintaining multiple websites.
Global Forms provides for your signup and cancellation forms (for both credit cards and online-checks) as well as your Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy information in these native languages, making it easy and convenient for international customers to sign up for membership to your website and giving you access to a growing market of global consumers.

Implementing the new Global Forms is simple. A new language parameter has been added to the custom forms setup that now lets you select the various languages you would like to offer to your customers. Once set, the CCBill system will automatically pass these forms to your customers. If no additional languages are selected, the system will always default to English and customers will have the option of selecting their preferred language.

NEW CCBill Dial ? Available Monday, October 28th!
In order to provide you with additional processing options for your Website?s transactions, we have entered into a strategic partnership with Studio Opera GmbH (formerly Goodthinxx) to provide a secure dialer billing solution to your CCBill processed website. By providing a dialer option, CCBill now offers you the ability to more effectively capitalize on your European traffic and credit card declines for an optimum ecommerce sales environment.

Dialers have long served as an option to on-line credit card processing especially in Europe, because only about 22% of European on-line users have a credit card, and many are unwilling to share their billing information. Dialer solutions effectively allow on-line users to download and install software that will dial and connect to a website, then charge the user?s local telephone bill for their usage charges.

Now, visitors to your websites processed by CCBill can have the option to pay for their memberships by using either a credit card, online check, or if you wish, your visitors can now pay using the CCBill Dialer as a payment option. Using the Studio Opera GmbH system, the CCBill Dialer simply connects the online visitor to the Webmaster?s site, using a personalized link?and the Webmaster gets paid for every call that connects.

Setting up the CCBill Dialer option is extremely easy, and can be handled via the new CCBill Webmaster Admin System Version 3.0. The CCBill Dialer is backed by detailed reporting functions also found on the Admin System. This unique reporting system shows the Webmaster the exact value of each hit.

NEW NEW NEW - Beta Version of the CCBill Webmaster Admin Version 4.0 ? Available in Late October 2002!
The most impressive achievement from the hard working CCBill development team is the beta version release of the Company?s new Admin Version 4.0! This new system will offer you the most extensive assortment of Administrative and Reporting features to date, couple these features with a ground breaking, redesigned and extremely easy to use interface with an embedded applet function this may just be the most powerful and robust management tool available to processing clients today.

steffie · 10-15-2002, 08:34 PM

My point exactly. When I opened my email I told my hubby. Here is the CCbill announcement. I kept reading,, going wow, thats kewl, this is kewl. that's about time,, blah blah..

When I finished it I just looked at my hubby and said "MM, wonder what happend to the Visa thing? We already had to register with PSW and pay up on October 14th, their cutoff time"

I think its cool CCbill has now all those options, I used a backup biller for that for the past couple of years, however I really wanted to hear something regarding Visa. How much? When due? blah blah

Shoplifter · 10-15-2002, 08:55 PM

Wow! You can make up your lost Visa sales with Korean bank cards!!

I ought to be laughing, but after all I've been through in the past week I can't even crack a smile.

Well at least they're trying. About time we can take ATM cards...But Korea? It's the fraud and hacking capital of the world. Ask any asian niche webmaster about Korea lol..

Status Update

The email that you received today was just a scheduled release on the 15th of New Features on CCbill.

We will be sending another email on Wed detailing the Visa Registration process. You will also see these forms in your admin section towards the end of the day.

I will post on a new topic some of the details of my trip to NY and the information learned from Banks and Visa

Ron C
CEO, CCbill.com

steffie · 10-15-2002, 11:03 PM

Thanks Ron,,

I was wondering about that when I opened my email.. I do love those upsell things he he

Cheers,

Julian Kay · 10-15-2002, 11:16 PM

Steffie just read this email to me. All I could think the whole time she was reading it was...

I should bend her over her desk and do her from behind while she read it. That's as close as I'll get to screwing CCBill.

Rochard · 10-15-2002, 11:33 PM

Everyone..... CCBill doesn't write this stuff on the fly. Ron needs to consult with his management staff on what to say, then it goes to all of the sales reps for review, and then to CCBill's legal department. This stuff needs to be worded carefully to avoid fuckups. You don't send out an email to thousands of people without giving it serious thought..........
