in order to fight off competition.

indicator of how well its convincing users to

because it had attractive security policies and

successful business, the company was
acquired by eBay. Today this is good chance
and very important opportunity for making the
business even more successful in the future.
The security level of the service offered is

high, but like PayPal most of financial

companies need to improve their security
continuously in order to make accounts safer.
