Just a thought, but have you thought about cutting out the "Middle Guys" and going direct to telcos? It can be quite a bitmore costly and time consuming to setup, but if its 5-10k per day an extra 5-10% of the premium charge in your pocket could make a big difference,maybe??

they provide the payment solutions they are not an ASP. So if you want to use them to sell XXX content / services thats fine, if you need chat services, games blah blah its not them :)

JT you met them, you and I have stood next to him at a bar a couple of times

Hi
Thanks chaps for your input.

Had a quick look at these firms, not sure they offer wghat my mate is after.

Basicly its a non website and non adult business.

He wants to take payments of around £10, and needs an email confermation withing 30 seconds.
