Interesting story about the pitfalls of ECommerce payments.

As one of the few acquirers (The others are Barclays and KCB, soon to be
followed by Chase Bank) this doesn't auger well for online card payments in
the country. 

 

Fortunately for us we have other payment gateways we can use. 

 

I'm curious to know what impact this will have on eCommerce in the country.
Anyone can share insights?
