ST,

I'm not quite sure why you are bringing up PayPal on this thread but PayPal has several disadvantages to this market. One, being the time it takes a new user to get set up to use it which is 3-5 days minimum.

Epassporte works globally, instantly. It operates on the Visa network because it is a Visa card. There have been comparisons to paypal I think due to the peer-to-peer capability. But, in the case of peer-to-peer transactions, personal accounts only pay .25 cents to do a transfer of ANY amount wether it's .01 cent or 1 million dollars. PayPal, if I'm not mistaken, charges a minimum of .75 cents or 2.2% which ever is greater. Also, peer-to-peer with PayPal is not instantaneous but with epassporte it is.

Enough about PayPal. They have a decent product but epassporte is a better alternative for many reasons. It's cheaper, faster, and easier... not to mention global.
