St. Paul, MN - April 18, 2003 - iProduction this week became a VeriSign Payment Services partner and can now integrate Payflow Pro™, the leading digital commerce solution, into the iProduction Internet Publishing System™. Through this partnership, iProduction clients can administer digital commerce, site content, customer or subscriber accounts, and e-mail deployment using a single, browser-operated system.

"Our partnership with VeriSign Payment Services is huge," said iProduction President Steve Laliberte. "We can now give our clients soup-to-nuts online shopping and payment systems on any scale. Our clients will get more of what they really want out of the Web: speed, control, and the lowest possible cost."

Payflow Pro™ integration enables iProduction system users to accept all major credit cards, debit cards, branded merchant cards, electronic checks, and other payment instruments. The entire purchasing process is fully branded using existing site templates and appears completely seamless to the buyer. Daily receipts are deposited directly into the seller's merchant account, and online sales reports are designed to be more easily reconciled against bank statements.
