The Security of InternetCash
At InternetCash we take security seriously. So seriously, in fact, that we decided to build a new Internet Payment Network offering digital signatures and PIN-protected transactions!
 
InternetCash is offering the only secure Pre-Paid Card in the world and, unique among all payment companies, is constructing a new grounds-up, proprietary Secure Internet Payment Network.
 
To that effect, our security, cryptography and electronic cash experts have designed and implemented a completely new payment infrastructure, with two goals in mind:
  • Security, privacy and convenience for the Internet consumer
  • Security and guaranteed payments for our merchants
In addition, we are implementing best security practices with hardware cryptographic devices, top-of-the-line firewalls, and intrusion and network detection systems.
 
The InternetCash™ Secure Pre-Paid Card
For the Pre-Paid InternetCash Card, our flagship product, we did not spare any expense to make it as secure as possible. Our goals:
  • The InternetCash card numbers are not stored in our database!
    -  We know it sounds strange, but it is true! Card numbers are generated on-the-fly using hardware cryptographic devices. And yes, this is military level security. No other pre-paid card is built this way.
  • Every InternetCash card number is digitally signed.
    -  Yes, your 20 digit InternetCash number contains a digital signature.
    -  Therefore nobody can guess or steal your card numbers!
  • Every purchase requires a PIN
    -  So even if you lose your card, nobody can steal your cash!

The InternetCash™ Payment Network
The InternetCash Payment Network is similar to the PIN-based ATM/Debit Networks that exist in the physical world, but it is even more secure: customers not only can enter a PIN for extra security, but in addition every payment is digitally signed.
 
The goals behind our payment network are:
  • Merchants do not see the customers' card numbers and PINs. This means that:
    -  For customers: your cards cannot be stolen and your PIN is always secure!
    -  For merchants: no credit card-like requirements for storing data, no fears of losing card numbers to hackers, no employee fraud.
  • Every transaction is PIN-protected
  • Every payment is Digitally Signed. Therefore:
    -  For customers: You know what you are charged. Merchants cannot change the amount on you or charge you twice!
    -  For merchants: Transactions are non-repudiable, i.e., No Charge-backs!
This Network offers true payment security, in contrast to today's credit card networks. This eliminates the fraud that occurs today with stolen credit card numbers. Witness the hundreds of thousands of stolen credit card numbers from sites as big as Western Union, Amazon.com (BiblioFind), EggHead and CDUniverse.
