Abstract

[The WebMoney Transfer platform launched in 1998. It is a Russian Company and leading digital currency online payment system. The various WebMoney currencies were developed to match the payment needs of identified groups and users with pre-existing needs for this payment product. WebMoney Transfer developed a Passport User Identification system with levels of access that allows for users without verification and also fully verified users. WebMoney has never allowed investments or HYIP schemes. The verification system helps identify potential misuse of the currency. WebMoney customer demand has also created thousands of independent exchange agents around the world, along with prepaid cards and cash-in kiosks that exchange cash for WebMoney funding. The company’s operation has discouraged exploitation of the system and prevented Ponzi schemes. In 2016, WebMoney Transfer is still a digital currency leader around the world.]
