October 1, 2015 Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover liability shift for POS terminals.

October 1, 2016 MasterCard liability shift for ATMs.

October 1, 2017 Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover liability shift for pay-at-pump gas stations, as well as for Visa and AmEx at ATMs.

This liability shift is putting pressure on merchants to comply with new EMV security standards or risk being held liable for all fraudulent transactions.

GoCoin arrives at just the right time, offering merchants tokenized security so they no longer have to view or store credit card information, thus eliminating security risks and liability.

MerchantsTop Tier Brands

Merchant adoption steady • Users need encouragement

Page 8: Inside Bitcoins San Diego Keynote 12/15/2015

“I believe merchants have been widely disappointed by the number of transactions they see in bitcoin. Most merchants have taken a passive approach to integrating bitcoin as a payment method, instead of strategically testing and optimizing checkout flows to encourage consumer adoption.”

Bitcoin’s lack of use in commerce is not just a “chicken and egg” problem

Steve Beauregard, CEO of GoCoin Sources: Pantera Capital, ZepChain, CoinDesk (http://www.coindesk.com/is-bitcoins-merchant-appeal-fading/)

Consumer Adoption: The Long Pole in the Tent

Merchants generally welcome Bitcoin adoption Lack of consumer adoption is the fundamental problem

Consumers need compelling reasons to use the volatile and still relatively hard to acquire Bitcoin over alternatives

How do we make mainstream consumers care about Blockchain currencies?

It took 30 years for credit cards to be used by 50% of households.

Mass adoption occurred in the late '80s when credit card companies began offering

rewards and points programs. Sources: First data White Paper

Rewards have also  become a popular  feature. About 76% of credit card holders  Receive rewards on at least one card,  with 51% saying the Rewards have a strong impact on  usage. All told, 58% of all credit cards  earn rewards.
