The Estonian Kroon to be replaced by Euro on January 1, 2011
Hi members,
We just wanted to let all of you know that as of January 1, 2011, the Estonian Kroon will be replaced by the Euro. Yes, that's right -- the Estonian Kroon will be no more.
You can read a little more about it in the Wall Street Journal
And if you have A LOT of time on your hands, don't forget to pay your respects to the Kroon by reading this obituary by Fredrik Erixon, Director and co-founder of the European Centre for International Political Economy.
Best of luck to our Estonian members in the adoption of the Euro.

Re: AlertPay.com UUDISED
Lõpuks ometi viis Alertpay vastavusse ka Eesti teenustasude lehe.
Üleminek Eurole muutis kontosisesed teenustasud ja teenustasuvaba deposiidi summad tiba väiksemaks. See vahe ei ole märgatav, kuid siiski.. Enne võeti Pro ja Business konto omanikel iga kontosisese laekumise eest teenustasu 2,50 % + 3,95 EEK. Nüüdsest 2,50 % + €0,25 EUR (3,92 EEK). Deponeerimine oli enne teenustasuta al. 800 EEK. Nüüdsest on see tasuta al. €50,00 EUR (782,33 EEK).
Ka raha välja võtmine panka või krediitkaardile muutub odavamaks juhul, kui AlertPay kontol on raha EUR-ides, sest vahelt kaovad valuutavahetuse teenustasud, mida enne võeti kroonidesse konverteerimisel: hetkekurss (wholesale exchange rate) + AlertPay enda konverteerimistasu 2,5%.
Siin on uued teenustasud:

AlertPay launches 3-D Secure for safer online credit card payments
We are proud to launch a brand new feature this week: 3-D Secure for all payments made by Visa or MasterCard.
Under the name "Verified by Visa" or "MasterCard SecureCode", 3-D Secure is an XML-based protocol designed as an extra layer of security for online credit/debit card transactions. It allows participating financial institutions identify who is making the payment and whether or not they are the authorized credit card holder.
The intention behind the creation of this feature is to enhance security when making payments online.
This is a screen shot of what the screen looks like when you are asked for your 3-D Secure password/code:
How it works with AlertPay
When using the Send Money or Email Invoice features, making a payment through checkout or responding to a money request, the sender or receiver will be asked to enter their 3-D Secure password or security code. If they do not yet have a code/password, they will be prompted to enroll in the program to create one.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Not everyone with a Visa or MasterCard will be asked to enter a 3-D Secure password/code; only people with cards from participating banks will be asked for a password/code.
Another important thing to note is that this is a security measure imposed by the various participating financial institutions and not by AlertPay, so if you require any assistance with your 3-D Secure password/code, you will have to contact your card issuer.
Benefits
- Merchants benefit from the reduction of "unauthorized transaction" chargebacks.
- Buyers and credit card holders benefit from the decreased risk of other people using their card to commit fraud.
We have implemented this feature as part of our unfaltering commitment to online security and customer confidence. We hope that this enhances your online experience with us and your merchant(s).

Can anyone in the eligible countries order a USD card? Yes ! The card is in USD currency and it can be used anywhere in the world.

AlertPay's New Resolution Center
Have you ever not received what you paid for? Have you ever had a problem with an online seller not delivering what they promised? AlertPay is here to help!
We are pleased to announce the launch of our Resolution Center, a new member's area designated to resolving disputes between shoppers and merchants, where our members can file, respond to and resolve disputes. A dedicated team of Resolutions Specialists are also on hand to moderate those disputes members cannot resolve on their own.
Why file a dispute?
* You did not receive your product or service.
* You received something different than what you paid for.
* Delivery of your product/service was significantly delayed.
We are committed to creating a safe and trustworthy environment for all of our members. Opening a dispute through our Resolution Center will allow both parties involved to communicate directly and reach a solution they can both agree on. The Resolution Center is there to protect the customer from fraudulent sellers and protect the seller from false allegations of fraud.
A purchase is a purchase!
Did you know that 85% of online purchases are services? Did you also know that PayPal does not allow transaction disputes on purchased services?
A problem can equally arise when you purchase a product OR a service. If your purchase was not delivered or rendered by the merchant as stated at the time of your transaction, then you can file a dispute. At AlertPay, we are committed to a fair, transparent and equally accessible dispute resolution process for all of our members!
It is easy to manage your disputes:
* Direct communication between both parties.
* Real-time updates on the status of your dispute.
* Full record of all past communications and disputes.
You can manage multiple disputes and track every step of the process - from the moment you file a dispute to the instant it is resolved.
Rest assured - you are being heard!
The Resolution Center is also supported by a dedicated team of Resolutions Specialists who will moderate the disputes members cannot resolve on their own. Please visit alertpay.com/en/ResolutionCenter.aspx to learn more about the Resolution Center and the terms and conditions for filing a dispute.
Shop safely online
While we do what we can to protect you and your purchases, you can prevent any problems from arising in the first place by conducting your own due diligence. For more information, check back here next week for a feature on safe online shopping!
