SquareTrade, eBay's dispute-resolution partner, is introducing a comparison-shopping tool at the DEMOFall event this week. SquareTrade SideBar provides users with competitive pricing information as they shop online. It also alerts users to potential fraud and scams by warning them when they visit a dangerous web site.
SquareTrade Sidebar is an always-on application that acts as an online shopping assistant. It detects when users are shopping and automatically delivers relevant information such as pricing comparisons, availability, reviews and seller trust ratings. SquareTrade Sidebar displays a broad range of purchase options, from stores to auctions and classified ads.
The application is also the first comparison-shopping tool to incorporate anti-fraud and anti-phishing technology. This protection incorporates specialized databases shared by consortiums that include eBay, Microsoft and Visa. SquareTrade is a member of the Phish Report Network, the leading organization in tracking online fraud. Established in 1999, SquareTrade delivers merchant verification, post-purchase protections and online dispute resolution and works with eBay, Yahoo and thousands of online merchants.
SquareTrade SideBar is is available at no charge to consumers. For a beta version of the SquareTrade SideBar, go to www.squaretrade.com.
