Press Release Summary: Software companies make more sales with Trialpay by giving customers thousands of ways to pay; payment option integrated into Avangate's e-commerce platform
Press Release Body: BOSTON - (Software Industry Conference 2008) - July 17, 2008 - Today at the Software Industry Conference (SIC), Avangate, a full-service provider for electronic software distribution and reseller management, announced that it has integrated the TrialPay payment option into its e-commerce platform, giving shoppers thousands of ways to pay for their preferred software through Avangate. TrialPay is the payment option that gives online shoppers the software they want, for free, simply by buying or trying something else from one of their favorite brands.
\"The way people pay for the software is changing\", said Alex Rampell, TrialPay\'s CEO. \"Customers are so accustomed to getting free software through OEM deals, new computer purchases and free or basic editions that they are much less willing to pay for software directly. TrialPay and Avangate have partnered to ensure that the Avangate cart remains best-in-breed by offering customers compelling ways to complete their transactions, which in turn earn software publishers significantly more revenue from their current traffic\".
TrialPay creates new revenue from the software publisher\'s current traffic by ensuring that every customer can find an offer that compels him to purchase. Using TrialPay, sellers in the Avangate network give away their product for free when shoppers complete one offer from blue-chip advertisers (e.g. send flowers or sign up for a DVD rental service). The Avangate seller is paid the full value of the free product-and often even more-using revenue from the advertiser. With TrialPay everyone wins: shoppers get a free product, merchants earn more revenue and advertisers acquire new customers.
\"Our partnership with TrialPay empowers software companies with the latest payment option available, helping them adapt to the rapidly changing online landscape and significantly increase sales from their current traffic and customer base\", said Carmen Sebe, CEO at Avangate. \"TrialPay provides customers with compelling ways to complete their purchases, and we are happy to add this unique tool to our e-commerce platform\".
Through this partnership, Avangate\'s sellers are encouraged to incorporate the TrialPay payment option in strategic places (direct-payment option on their Web site and through marketing campaigns, in-product and download interstitial messaging, uninstall prevention, etc.) to improve conversion rates and make more sales. Current Avangate merchants can learn more about this new partnership from within the Avangate control panel and more about TrialPay by visiting www.trialpay.com.
