Alpari adds credit card payment facility

Fast, secure and low-cost account funding

 

LONDON, December 23, 2009 – Alpari (UK), one of the world’s fastest growing online Forex brokers, today adds a new credit card payment option for clients worldwide.

Through a high security online system, clients can safely transfer funds straight from their credit card into Alpari’s account in less than 60 seconds.

The new facility for credit cards uses 3D Secure, a widely accepted standard for online payments developed by credit card providers VISA and MasterCard. 3D Secure adds an extra layer of security to online credit card transactions.

Alpari will not charge a fee for credit card deposits over USD 3,000 or currency equivalent. For many traders, using this method will not only be quicker and easier but at a lower cost compared to a standard wire transfer.
