User Feedback:

We use the Clear Commerce Payment engine which clears through the Verifone gateway or the EPS switch. We put a partnership together with TELUS and HP when we upgraded to the new systems. We have built all of our own payment applications through the Clear Commerce engine including our e-philanthropy solutions/donation management, recurring batching, etax receipting, e-invoicing etc., etc.
Internationally there are a few Verifone gates in Britain, Italy, Turkey, Greece, Spain, working on France, etc., These are also working on the switch to EPS. Barclay's bank in UK has there own engine. SPI is working on their own payment engine as well. -- Catherine Clarke, Strategic Profits

User Feedback:

Our company, Keycorp Limited, provides payment gateway products and services on a global basis. We currently have our Nobil product deployed with the CIBC bank in Canada and with CariCard in the Caribbean. In Australia, our product is currently in use by 3 out of the 4 major banks and we are in discussion with several large companies on further local deployments. We also have a wholly owned subsidiary, Camtech Limited in Australia, which operates a payment bureau service enabling merchants to become rapidly Internet enabled for payments. You can find references to our Nobil product off our Keycorp home page at www.keycorp.net or at www.Nobil.com (this site is a little old and is currently under review as we have significantly upgraded the product with features and functionality since then). You can also have a look at the CIBC payments system demo page at http://www.cibc.nobil.com/demo.htm.
