INTERSHOP: INTERSHOP and CyberCash announce ONESTOP Merchant Community
RELATED SYMBOLS: (CYCH)
APR 19, 1999, M2 Communications - INTERSHOP Communications, a leading
provider of electronic commerce software and CyberCash, Inc., the world
leader in e-commerce technologies and services, today announced ONESTOP
Merchant Community Builder. This integrated solution consisting of the
INTERSHOP 3 ePages and the CyberCash CashRegister payment service
enables Commerce Service Providers (CSP's) such as ISPs, portals,
online communities, financial institutions and other hosting businesses
to quickly deploy complete multi-store electronic commerce sites for
merchant communities.
The benefits of ONESTOP include a significantly shorter
time-to-market and quicker return on investment for Internet merchants,
and easier deployment of commerce-enabled websites for service
providers who target small and medium-sized businesses. INTERSHOP 3
ePages provides the complete e-commerce infrastructure including
storefront and back-office, while CyberCash's CashRegister service is
used for secure, real-time payment and credit card transactions over
the Internet, as well as merchant account set up.
"ONESTOP addresses the growing demand for rapid deployment and quick
ROI for e-commerce solutions," said Edward J. Callan, INTERSHOP's vice
president of marketing. "Reflecting the long-standing technology
partnership of INTERSHOP and CyberCash, ONESTOP makes it easier than
ever for CSPs to set up merchant communities with mature and complete
solutions for doing business on the Internet."
"INTERSHOP and CyberCash have worked together successfully to
stimulate the acceptance of electronic commerce worldwide," said Nancy
Goldberg, CyberCash senior vice president. "As a company committed to
simplifying and accelerating e-commerce, it was a natural step for
CyberCash to integrate its pioneering services with INTERSHOP's
world-class products to make it even easier for businesses that want to
get online with a fully functional and safe state-of-the-art commerce
web site."
Value-added Internet Service Provider, Concentric Network
Corporation, has integrated ONESTOP directly into their ConcentricHost
service, streamlining and simplifying the process of launching
e-commerce sites for small and medium-sized Internet merchants. Instead
of establishing separate relationships with Internet payment
processors, financial institutions and Internet hosting businesses,
merchants now can get set up with a fully integrated, tested and
documented solution in one simple step.
"These new ConcentricHost commerce services demonstrate our
commitment to serve small and medium-sized business customers with the
tools they need to quickly and easily grow their businesses on the
Web," said John Peters, executive vice president and general manager of
Concentric's network applications services division. "By integrating
hosting and payment technologies in ONESTOP INTERSHOP and CyberCash
provide a best-of-breed solution that satisfies the demand for a more
transparent and convenient process to deploy commerce solutions."
