Wazzamba, a unique online virtual world offering players the chance to win real world travel prizes, has partnered with GlobalCollect for processing all its online payments across the world.
By using the single interface Merchant Link solution, Wazzamba has full control over the check out pages while gaining access to GlobalCollect's unrivalled portfolio of payment methods - the current agreement covers international and local credit and debit cards. In addition, GlobalCollect applies Fraud Screening services to all card transactions to detect suspicious patterns and minimize fraudulent transactions.
The Wazzamba virtual world combines exploration with skill-based casual games to provide a rich and rewarding experience while offering players the chance to win real world travel prizes. Wazzamba lets casual gamers explore more than 30 destinations visiting some of the world's greatest cities and landmarks and at the same time being able to earn points to win actual travel prizes from DreamTrips and GetAway Trips(TM) every week.
Rocco Pellegrinelli, CEO of Wazzamba, said: "We chose GlobalCollect because they provide a best-of-breed solution that covers all of our international payment needs. As a company that awards valuable prizes to its members, it is critical that we have a partner that Wazzamba, and our customers, can trust."

I'm sure that this innovative concept of combining skill games, answering trivia questions and winning real life travel prizes will score very well with players all over the world."
