Yahoo! PayDirect was the name of a person-to-person money transfer service by Yahoo! via HSBC, competing with Billpoint and PayPal. Yahoo launched PayDirect in March 2000 after purchasing Athas, a provider of electronic billing services. Athas' dotBank.com service allowed customers to make online bill payments and to exchange money with other customers. When Yahoo took over the site, the accounts were managed by international bank HSBC. In 2000, Yahoo extended the Yahoo PayDirect service to mobile phones, as part of its Yahoo Everywhere initiative. Yahoo PayDirect was initially launched with CIBC National Bank as the financial partner (based in Maitland Florida, and a subsidiary of CIBC - one of the major Canadian banks). The service was subsequently migrated to HSBC. The Yahoo PayDirect service was discontinued effective November 22, 2004, leaving only a web page ((biz.yahoo.com/paydirect )) showing "The PayDirect service and web site is closed and now unavailable." ==See also== *Billpoint *PayPal 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「PayDirect」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
