PARIS, February 16, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Oxatis, the leading E-Commerce Solution provider in Europe, partners up with Moneybookers, one of Europe's largest online payment systems with more than 80 payment options in over 200 countries!

As part of its expansion across Europe, Oxatis has forged a partnership with Moneybookers which provides merchants with a secure and hassle-free way of accepting payments, and has recently been named the fastest growing private equity-backed company in the UK based on profits.

Moneybookers offers every Oxatis merchant a simple interface for directly accepting more than 80 different payment options including credit cards, local debit cards and instant bank transfers. Moreover, Moneybookers allows Oxatis merchants to benefit from its end customer base of more than ten million Moneybookers eWallet customers.

With Oxatis, merchants will be able to easily configure both the Moneybookers direct payment gateway as well as the Moneybookers eWallet without a separate technical integration and via just a single interface for all payment options.

Nikolai Riesenkampff, co-CEO at Moneybookers, says, There is a proven correlation between the number of payment options and increased customer conversion rates which allows for higher revenues. State of the art shops offer various preferred payment methods and choose eWallets to benefit from additional marketing opportunities to their customer base. Moneybookers now enables every Oxatis merchant to accept all relevant payment options directly and to integrate the Moneybookers eWallet, and so maximise their revenue.

Moneybookers doesn't charge any setup costs or monthly minimum fees. Advanced security and risk checks are free of charge. Merchants don't need to be PCI-certified as Moneybookers processes all payment data as a PCI-certified payment provider in a highly secure environment.

Hervé Bourdon, VP Marketing at Oxatis, says, We are very pleased to welcome Moneybookers to our partner portfolio. Our goal remains making it as easy as possible for more and more companies to succeed in E-Commerce. Oxatis merchants now have access to one of the best and easiest payment solutions out there. Their customers, as well as their bank accounts, will thank them for this addition.
