Under the partnership, AsiaPay will promote and distribute Softforum's XecurePay ACS products in Greater China and Asia, including ACS Server, Enrolment Server, ACS Manager, WAP Extension and SMS Extension.
With the increasing use of Internet and continued growth of eCommerce payment, leading credit card companies have jointly developed and implemented a new online payment security protocol standard -- 3-D secure.

Softforum XecurePay has proven itself a great success amongst banks in Korea and an increasing number of major banks in Asia.
