But I will say this. It's a very hard business to get into, because any payment system robust enough to be useful to the adult business will get hammered on very very hard indeed by an amazing assortment of criminals and shady characters, trying to take advantage of it (and you) in various ways.

The security systems necessary to fend them off (while keeping the system useful to your customers) are not just expensive, they are very difficult to design and maintain.

I'm not really impressed by the way Epassporte has addressed these problems over the years. But I do comprehend that the problems are very big and very, very difficult.
