Not sure if you're wrong or we're a special case then.  Visa is actually our

players' most popular card, and in fact (I'm told by the accountants and

techs) we're beta testing all kinds of SET gubbins for Visa in Switzerland.


Perhaps we're an exception because we've got a government license and the

transactions are paid straight into a Red Cross bank account.  We certainly

have a ridiculously low cost per transaction (on all cards) for that reason.
