Wont all the site urls and per-merchant tracking be able to be thrown out the window here? Woah wait a min.... even the Visa registrations? Is this even still part of the whole IPSP/Visa Registration/high-risk merchant stuff? Will we be required to register and pay the Visa registration fees when using ePassporte?

I don't follow your logic here. Epassporte is a Visa card. Yes you can get a Virtual Visa account instantly online and yes it is integrated to work seemlessly with Epoch's services, but other than that it's really a Visa card, same as any other (with a few extra perks such as peer-to-peer money transfers). I really don't see how any of this changes the equation in terms of Visa regulations, URL registration, etc.. etc..
Epassporte is payment method just like MasterCard, JCB, Discover, or any other Visa card. The difference for the industry is the ability to issue these cards globally to those surfers who's regular credit card's are not accepted by the current billing models. Blocked countries, fraud DB's, ..all those transactions that are currently not-acceptable now have an opportunity to be taken. We've worked on this for 2 years with experts in the transaction field all over the world. It is a well designed prodcut which just happens to address the online entertainment communities needs very well.
What we want is for everyone to send us their denied transactions. If you're already an Epoch client you're covered. If not, you should have us as a back-up and send us every denied credit card order you have. A pre-funded card guarantees a sign-up and the conversions will rock. You'll get paid the same as any other creidt card sign-up, so, a lot of those coutries your using with a dialer should now go to epassporte.
