iShopUSA is American Companies` Solution To International E-Commerce

Low Dollar and Weak Economy Boosts Cross-Border Trade

Torrance, CA (June 26, 2008) – iShopUSA
(“iShop”) offers intelligent, international e-commerce solutions to U.S. retailers. Driven by booming cross-border business and the struggling U.S. dollar, iShop is serving the global shopping community by offering access to online merchants that sell everything from apparel and accessories, to home décor, sporting goods, electronics and more.

Multi-million dollar accounts including one of the country’s largest pet supplies store, Petco, work with iShop to capitalize on the increasing demand for international checkout and shipping capabilities. Catering to more than 200 countries worldwide and armed services personnel, iShop completes the regulations and compliance paperwork required for international trade. Additionally, iShop boasts the quickest integration time. Shipping from their fulfillment center in California, it facilitates door to door service to the consumer.

“We are witnessing exponential growth with a new market of international customers who have money to spend and a strong desire for competitively priced U.S. products,” said Nick Tobey, iShopUSA President. “Items that are difficult to find abroad attract a substantial untapped customer base for American merchants, and iShop’s efficient hands-on approach to fulfilling orders allows a company to go global within a week.”

Foreign economies have created lucrative opportunities for U.S. companies – an estimated $133 billion in international e-commerce sales is projected for 2008[1]. Providing merchants a profitable operating model that addresses the growing demand for U.S. products, iShop offers total landed cost quotes, foreign currency calculation, international payment processing, fraud screening, international shipping and reverse logistics on behalf of its clients.

The international customer is given a seamless shopping experience by integrating iShop’s cart-to-cart technology into a retailer’s e-commerce site. Easy purchasing steps are of prime importance to foreigners who posses varying internet capabilities and downloading times in their individual countries. Users simply browse through the retailer’s website and choose the “International Checkout” button to be connected to iShop’s interface, which offers the same, clear-cut options as a domestic transaction.

Landed cost calculations such as duties and taxes, and the ability to use local international forms of payment, are automatically presented to the shopper in a single, concise console. Committed to providing quality customer care, multi-lingual agents are on hand to answer any questions or requests. If a user should issue a chargeback, iShop assumes all costs on behalf of the merchant. Moreover, iShop screens international orders and absorbs the risk of fraud, ensuring that the retailer never comes out of pocket for any refunds or faulty purchases.

iShopUSA is the international Web solution for U.S. retailers. Handling everything from point of sale to doorstep delivery, iShop bears the risks associated with international e-commerce so that the client does not have to. Merchants are paid in real time with a U.S.A. credit card and are guaranteed funds. Companies including Petco.com, ramseyoutdoor.com, halloweenexpress.com, designerlinensoutlet.com, eyesave.com and iboats.com have expanded their e-commerce capabilities with iShop to benefit from the boom in international online sales.
