eBillme Lets Shoppers Pay for Online Goods at Offline Locations

eBillme, an online payment option that enables consumers and small businesses to use online banking to pay securely with cash, has introduced eBillme Walk-In, a new way for consumers to shop online and pay with cash, without having a credit card or bank account. The company has partnered with providers including MoneyGram International to assemble the largest network of U.S. based walk-in locations with the lowest transaction fee.

eBillme is targeting some of the 28 million Americans without a bank account and 44 million Americans considered "underbanked." eBillme President and CEO Marwan Forzley said in a press release, "Millions of consumers use the Internet to browse but aren't able to shop online because of limited credit and banking access. We want every consumer to be able to pay securely with cash and benefit from the eBillme platform, which includes a rewards program and buyer protection features giving consumers all the perks of credit cards without getting into debt or incurring extra fees. For merchants, eBillme Walk-In offers an opportunity to reach a new consumer market and increase sales."

Upon selecting eBillme Walk-In, online shoppers will be sent an eBill which can now be paid using online banking or by presenting the eBill to a participating location. A locator is available to show consumers the nearest walk-in location based on their address. Consumers can take their printed eBill to one of the over 75,000 walk-in locations across the U.S., including MoneyGram's nearly 40,000 agent locations. eBillme is offered by over 800 online merchants.
