ECNext clients can now offer customers the option to pay in local currencies including the euro, British sterling pound, Canadian dollar, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, Swiss franc, Hong Kong dollar and others. They can view their exact and final purchase prices on-screen in these local currencies, and the company will continue to settle and conduct business in dollars. E4X guarantees the purchase prices and exchange rates to both ECNext clients and their customers, so neither is exposed to currency rate fluctuations.
ECNext provides hosted e-commerce solutions with the complete range of services and technology needed for building, managing and growing a successful online business. ECNext clients are leading market research firms, financial analysts and business publishers who create and sell high-value business research and data. With ECNext's solution, these clients expand their customer base by cross-selling and up-selling new Web customers. The new E4X multi-currency ecommerce service is a valuable tool for attracting new international markets.
ECNext-powered commerce sites enable companies to expand their businesses by selling directly to that rapidly growing number of users who rely on web searches for critical business information needs. Web buyers are frequently project-driven and deadline-driven, and thus are highly motivated to purchase resources that meet their needs.
The ECNext solution ensures that self-service buyers searching the Web will quickly find and can immediately access and purchase our clients' information products. Currency conversion risks will not be an issue.
"With the exponential growth of the business of delivering content online, comes the ability for merchants to reach new markets. To compete in this global marketplace, it's imperative that merchants offer consumers a local shopping experience which includes the ability to make online purchases in the currency of the consumer's choice." said Yuval Tal, CEO of E4X, Inc. "ECNext is one of the forerunners in this thinking and we're pleased to enable them to provide their clients with this competitive differentiator."
"One of the most powerful aspects of selling business content on the Web is the ability to easily reach and serve buyers worldwide. Enabling our clients to offer their customers the ability to pay in home currencies gives them another powerful tool for reaching and serving the lucrative Web marketplace," said Chris Skudder, CEO of ECNext, Inc. "With E4X's quality multi-currency solution we provide another e-commerce benefit for our customers."
