Risk Management of Online Payment Service Student:Jeng,Tzuo-Shiu Advisor: PhD. Yi-Kun Li PhD. Yang-Cheng Lu Abstracts This study explored the risk control of Internet payment industry Online payment service providers, and its cooperation with banking industry as a more ideal manner before the establishment of relevant special law.
With the increasing popularity of Internet, e-commerce has seen an significant growth in Taiwan. In fact, online payment has long been a worldwide trend. In 1998, third-party payment service is established in the United States and in 2004 China followed suit. Therefore, a “third-party payment method” should be immediately established in Taiwan. In addition, when promoting the third-party payment services, functions like pre-pay recharges synchronized with abovementioned countries and cross border transactions should be provided, so that the online payment service in Taiwan can catch up with the global pace within three to five years.
The research provides constructive recommendations based upon the analysis of different international laws and regulations, and online literatures related to online payment, as well as an analysis of the regulation and strategy of online payment risk management; finally the recommendations are also drawn upon my personal experience of practicing “abundance of treasurer” acquirer bank and online payment risk management in S bank.
In Taiwan, where civil law system is adopted, electronic remittance payment services are exclusive to banks, which means if third party payment service providers wish to operate “value-based”recharge business, related legislations must be enacted. Furthermore, based on the planning process of cross-strait policies, competent authorities should start working with third party payment service providers in China to build a platform for B2B, B2C e-payment services. By doing that, purchasing commodities from Taiwan will be made more convenient for mainlanders, which enables a more effective marketing in the Chinese market. With a more convenient online payment services for businesses and the general public, we can open up more e-commerce opportunities for enterprises in Taiwan.
Considering “the development of e-commerce”, “third-party payment in transit security funds”, “full cash flow payment instruments”, “consumer protection”, “tax, information security, supervision measures” and other issues, it is recommended as a more ideal way for banks to work with third party payment service providers before the competent authorities set up the rules for the game, which is, a package of measures to improve the current regulations and licensing.
