Being based in Europe and travelling back and forth all the timeEpassporte sure enough offered great convenience. Still, for what it's worth, they did good to me by transferring my full balance out to my debit card issued by a bank in Europe. So except for a simple currency conversion, no loss here.

Biggest issue now would be the usability, the easiness of getting money via Epass is hard to replace. Especially small payments of $100, $200 or even $500. When the ability to load your Epass account via VISA card disappeared that was inconvenient, but could be worked around. As far as I'm concered it still worked for me to get money out, but what now?

Where to go, who to trust and what to use? All sponsors will be scared, looking at each other, waiting for a new industry standard to emerge. No small program want to invest or adapt their program for a specific solution before one or more of the really big ones go ahead and announce what they will use and support.

The industry is waiting, who will step up, take charge and lead the way?
