Industry Insights

"An ingenuously simple and logical approach with the potential to ease risk-pressures..."
— David Taylor, Commerce Tomorrow
"You simply can not get a better way to protect credit card information on the internet than for it not to exist on the internet."
— Damien Croft, CEO ComCon
"While e-Path’s manual processing would be too labor-intensive for medium to high volume mainstream businesses, it is recognized for making real improvements in security and risk reduction ... offers a safe, low-cost alternative, I would suggest only for the entry-level or small-scale merchant market."
William Baltimore - 2020 ShopTalk Conference, Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas, U.S.A
"I can't see much point in this [e-Path] service. Where's the automation? OK, so its good news in the security department and cheaper but having to enter charges manually is not going to have everyone change away from their establishd online card processor. Nice idea, but not for me."
— Trevor - ZNet feedback
"This [e-Path] new direction gives online businesses the ability to seize control of their transaction processes for the purpose of reducing their own direct exposure to risk. A safer system offering reduced risk would give banks prime leverage to target their merchant services to the lucrative entry level virtual business market with renewed vigor."
— S. Johnston Jnr - Smith, Johnston and Boverich. Strategic Financials
"Coming out of Australia does not surprise me. Well established industry conventions don't seem to constrain the Australians. Their [e-Path's] kill-the-risks approach seems to be their backbone, is bold and commendable but their manual modus operandi will severely limit their appeal."
— Joseph Rosenberg - 2018 Internet Retailer Conference & Exhibition, Chicago, IL, USA
"What rock has e-Path been hiding under?"
— Julie McCabe - e-Commerce Talk Post
"This new manual gateway [e-Path] will only be an option for those likely to be doing small numbers of transactions and as such can not be considered a mainstream alternative to current live online processors. Not even close. The market for this type of manual service is microscopic."
— Samantha Goldburg - The Online Merchant
"Their non-permanent storage of credit card data nails a previously unattainable goal for online card handlers - a major achievement that should delight the card vendor companies. You will be hard pressed finding a safer method."
— Simon Metcalf - ComZone UK
"E-Path is no big deal. They have simply identified what causes risk and gone about eliminating it. Bright sparks change the world for the better all the time, like I said, no big deal."
— Shane Williams - MacSpeak
