I'm not sure why epassporte does not see this, and proactively work to retain their current business.
Keyser, this is a pointed question:
What does management not understand about your service being a simple commodity?
I'll stick to the facts, and leave peoples' opinions and experiences out of this.
- The money kept in epassporte accounts is not FDIC insured.
- It yields no interest, but has all of the risk (and more) associated with a traditional money market account available via PayPal et al.
- There is a 5% fee to load the account.
- More than one bank regards it as an illegitimate service. Like gaming transactions, many banks deny epassporte transactions.

Epassporte has no unique value proposition. If another service comes along with: a trusted name backing it, lower transaction fees, higher (or any) interest, and good banking relationships - epassporte will simply vanish and be forgotten.
The adult business will leave you as quickly as they can migrate, and there's no room for you in mainstream.
