11. Credit card processing for adult websites is a bit more complicated than most people in our industry understand. What is the most difficult problems you see facing credit card processing?

This is a very topical question given recent events.
The most difficult things to combat are those things we don't have control of, or may not be aware of until someone discovers the issue and points it out, as with what happened with a particular marketing company recently.
Epoch is more than a payment gateway, we are an information database and risk management service organization. Once a transaction makes it to our servers and we can store, track and monitor activity, we are in control and able to manage the situation. It's when something or someone hijacks the process before we gain control over the transaction that is an interesting dilemma. Never has it been more important to know who you are doing business with. There are ways to combat such problems but for obvious reasons I won't go into that here.
It amazes me how clever some people can be. If we could only bring the unscrupulous away from the dark side of the force it would be amazing to see what they could do.
