What
is E-Gold?
e-gold
is an electronic currency (or "e-cash"), issued
by e-gold Ltd., a Nevis corporation, 100% backed at all times
by gold bullion in allocated storage. e-gold is integrated
into an account based payment system that empowers people
to use gold as money.
Specifically,
the e-gold payment system enables people to Spend specified
weights of gold (in a specified currency value, e.g. $USD)
to other e-gold accounts. Only the ownership changes - the
gold in the treasury grade vault stays put.
How
can you accept payments via E-Gold?
It
is very easy to set up your web site to accept payment via
E-Gold. You can either have your clients access a "Spend"
page or you can implement the e-gold Shopping Cart Interface.
e-gold
payments may also be made at the point of service via a web
enabled mobile phone.

N.B.
The fact that E-Gold is based on the gold index also means
that as the dollar falls and the value of gold rises the value
of the funds you hold with them will also increase..
PayPal
will even enable you to add payment options to emails for
subscriptions..
