Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from WebMoney!

As 2016 comes to an end, the global settlement system WebMoney Transfer would like to say a big thank you to each and every one of our users and wish you all Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year filled with many new ideas, business opportunities and successful projects.

It was a great and eventful year for WebMoney – we launched a number of new services and continuously improved their interfaces, and perhaps, the biggest highlight of all our newly introduced payment methods was the launch of a payment acceptance in Bitcoin, which has become available not only for X-purses but also directly for Z, R and U purses. As a result, it brought new business opportunities and potential clients to merchants and, on the other hand, buyers, even those who have not yet joined our vibrant WebMoney community, can now use Bitcoin to pay for products and services in authorised WebMoney shops. Project authors on WebMoney Funding can also benefit from using this option which allows them to start fundraising in Bitcoin.

We have significantly updated mobile clients for all platforms. The business network WebMoney Events has been fully renewed and relaunched, the WebMoney Files and WebMoney Video services have also been significantly modified and improved and, finally, we have launched our own worldwide hotel and travel booking service.

We hope our continuous improvements and innovations will help you in reaching your goals and support you in your personal and business endeavours.

We wish you wonderful festivities. Merry Christmas and a very prosperous New Year!

Fundraising on WebMoney Funding is now available in Bitcoin

The fundraising platform WebMoney Funding from now on will allow its users to accept transfers made in Bitcoin (BTC). This option will automatically become available to all projects owners. Funds will be received into a user`s internal account on the Funding platform with an option of withdrawing funds to their X-purse later.

WebMoney Funding allows fundraising using a number of different channels, such as crowdfunding, charitable projects, website support, and collective purchases as well as organising events. Projects from the "Crowdfunding", "Collective purchases" and "Events" menus are displayed in the public catalogue, while widgets for supporting the resource can be placed on a project owner`s website. Project deions from the "Charity projects" and "A call for help" menus are available via a link, which the project owners can share on external resources and social networks.

In addition to Bitcoin, fund transfers can also be made with the WebMoney bank cards, online banking and via electronic payment systems. The WebMoney Funding service does not charge an agent fee for creating a project.

Full reconstruction of the business network WebMoney Events

The business network WebMoney Events has been significantly redesigned and a number of fundamentally new functions, which simplify the implementation and delivery of collective tasks have been added.

The events.wmtransfer.com network is already used by over 9 million users for managing projects, setting and implementation of tasks, working with personal and business pages, and for connecting with business partners.

The new version has a significantly improved search function. You can search by using various filters: by groups, events, contacts, tasks, messages, documents or you can use the search option “Everywhere”.

From now on, you won`t miss invitations to join new groups, contact requests or mentions of your profile in discussions, because all notifications are collected in one place at the top of the screen.

It will be more convenient to add files using the drag-and-drop function, and all files within the group are listed in a separate panel on the right hand side.

Business pages have also undergone a number of improvements. You can change a page design by uploading the required cover and can immediately start raising funds in support of your project. This tool is especially useful if you do not have your own website.

The fundraising option for projects in the Events is now directly connected with the WebMoney Funding Service. A project on the Funding service together with widgets are now created automatically upon selection of the “Fundraising” option for financing within a business page. At the same time, the fundraising block will appear on the business page.

Is it now even more convenient to use WebMoney Events not only from a desktop, but also from a mobile device thanks to the improved website adaptability.

WebMoney expands a list of purses for accepting payments in Bitcoin

Sellers receiving payments via merchant.webmoney can now accept payments in Bitcoin (BTC) not only to X-purses but also to Z, R and U-purses from clients who are not WebMoney members.

Previously, an authorised WebMoney Transfer shop had to create a separate X-purse but now it would be sufficient to enable the acceptance of payments in Bitcoin by adjusting settings for an existing purse on the Merchant WebMoney service.

The new option will allow sellers to increase their number of potential clients without going into too many details of operations with BTC, funds will be automatically received on the usual WebMoney purse.

The new version of WebMoney Keeper WinPro 3.9.9.7

WebMoney has released a new version of Keeper WinPro 3.9.9.7 with added new features and an improved communication interface.

It is now a lot easier to find the required contact by their avatars uploaded in the Contacts menu of the WebMoney Events business network. The BL of your contacts within the system are now displayed in the list and can be distinguished by different colours depending on the creditworthiness of the user as follows: a creditworthiness below 1000 WMZ is marked with red, orange is used when the creditworthiness of the user is below 10 000 WMZ, green – below 100 000 WMZ and blue when the creditworthiness is above 10 000 WMZ respectively. For easy operation within the system for users from Belarus, we have taken into account all issues arising from the denomination of WMB.

Users of the Windows 7 version and above won’t need to switch between the chat windows while communicating with a few different users simultaneously because WebMoney Keeper WinPro 3.9.9.7 supports multiple chat tabs in the same window. You can use the combinations of fast keys: `ctrl+tab` (forward) and `ctrl+shift+tab`(back) to navigate in between chat tabs within the same window. In the case of tabs not fitting within the window, you can scroll through the tabs with a mouse.

In addition, it is now even easier to use the WebMoney Video service, because missed calls are now listed in the incoming calls under a separate icon.
