With the company's increased focus on the scalability of its technology in preparation for the impending growth of e-commerce, customization revenue decreased from approximately 90% of total revenue in 1997(~4 Million) to approximately 10% of revenues in 1998....(~1.2 Million) So of the 1997 revenues ~500,000 of the 4.5 Million were e-comm related the remaining 90% were customization. InstaBuy also allows banks to enhance their relationships with customers on the Internet. InstaBuy accounted for almost 10% of CyberCash's revenue in 1998....(~1.2 Million) Not bad since it was first introduced on August 19th, 1998, which left only 4 full months of fiscal 98 to generate revenues...an those 4 months were about 240% of the 500k 12 month 1997 e-comm revenues. InstaBuy is worth watching....just went and signed up myself...it was easy....as it out-distanced PayNow. helped increase revenues from PayNow by almost 300% over the prior year and accounted for approximately 5% of CyberCash's revenue in 1998...(~600 Thousand)
