Hi, from the agenda we had a strawman set of "features of a successful web payment". I think as a high-level statement of what we are doing as a group, this is a helpful thing to record and use in a document… [[[ - A fast and significant adoption of the technology (>100M+ in the first two years). - Level playing field (aka fair competition) for merchants, payment providers, customers, software vendors, and payment networks. - A great reduction in "stolen card" transaction fraud. - A great reduction in the amount of custom software that a merchant must write to integrate with new payment products. - Removal of the need for a merchant to hold on to sensitive customer data. - Greatly reduced payment provider switching costs for customers and merchants. ]]] >From the discussion on Monday morning I tried to extract things we should consider adding to that list: - Does not add (ideally reduces) the time required to make a payment - Enables value-added services to help payers - Requires as little new technology and as few standards as possible - Enables anyone to understand what they are doing (esp. its cost) when they make a payment to another person (or system or company or object) - Does not interfere with the ability to meet regulatory requirements - Enables people to "take their money out of the system" - Can be delegated to an "agent" (device, automated process, etc). cheers Chaals -- Charles McCathie Nevile - web standards - CTO Office, Yandex chaals@yandex-team.ru - - - Find more at http://yandex.com
