Micros from MasterCard co-creator

The co-creator of MasterCard has created a micropayment system that support amounts down to $0.02.
1. You put money in your Cashets account from your online account such as PayPal or Yahoo!PayDirect. Then you can buy anything from a penny to $5.00 with Cashets.

2. Fill in our short sign-up form with your email and password and tell us the source of your funds.

3. Your account is immediately opened.

4. There are no minimum fees, no transfer fees... no fees for a Cashets account.

5. To purchase online, simply click on the Cashets logo, enter your email and password. The money is transferred immediately from your account to the seller's. You can dispute any transaction if you are dissatisfied. To see a sample purchase, click here for a demonstration.

6. You can be a seller. If you have a webpage, put Cashets logos on your page and sell. Sellers pay a transaction fee of 1%, with a one penny minumum.
