April 10, 2002 CCAvenue introduces JCB Cards into its payments acceptance portfolio

April 10, 2002 "Convenience of Online payments" that is the motto CCAvenue has been working on. And now it has translated into yet another tie-up: this time with JCB cards, one of leaders in the payment card and services industry.
As consumers become savvy on the usage of credit cards, payment cards are rapidly gaining acceptance in markets across India. CCAvenue merchants having a special eye towards the asian market, CCAvenue has just opened its doors for its merchants focusing on cardholders from the Asian region with this most recent tie-up.
Now users of JCB cards can shop online through CCAvenue network of merchants; expanding their zero-nterest shopping horizons into cyberspace. "This is yet another feather in our cap as we go about our mission of opening up the cyber vistas to as many Indian merchants as possible!" said Mr Patel, CEO, Avenues!
