Today Holbi announces a new osCommerce payment module. Integrating the SECPay with 3D secure payment module on the merchant’s website shopping system allows to verify and authenticate the true identity of the shopper in real-time, thereby dramatically reducing their exposure to disputed transactions of this type.

3-D Secure is a credit card authentication program implemented by Visa and MasterCard to reduce fraudulent purchases by verifying purchaser identity during online transactions.

The benefits of implementing 3-D Secure include a reduction in disputed transactions and chargebacks and their resulting financial expense.

Customers do not like to wait and often leave the web site if it's pages are slow. But the more sales the web site generates, the more products appear in the product catalogue - the bigger the database becomes, and the slower becomes the web site. In order to solve these issues and to speed up osCommerce web sites, Holbi introduces this completely new service for osCommerce. From as slow as 8 seconds per page down to only 0.3 seconds (based on a real life example)!

Yet another hot summer this year seems to be finally over. But the hot season at Holbi continues. Our customers from all around the Globe have demonstrated a doubled interest in solutions and services provided by Holbi.

We have been also working on several new stunning solutions that we will announce later this year. But we'd like to start right now with announcing a fully featured Google Checkout API based payment module for osCommerce. Though the module is availalbe for purchase and download to every osCommerce store owner, it worth mentioning that only US citizens can currently apply for a Google Checkout Seller's Account.
