Software firm clicks on new way to charge on-line
Article Abstract:
Echarge Corp. of Seattle, WA, hopes to carve a niche in the on-line shopping market with an alternative on-line billing software. The software allows consumers to charge on-line shopping to 1-900 telephone numbers, giving consumers the added convenience of having one bill for their on-line time and purchases. The service also gives another way to shop on-line to consumers, who otherwise might have been turned away by unavailability of credit cards or unwillingness to give out their credit card numbers.
