Financial terms were not disclosed.

“The LinkExchange brand is already trusted by over 250,000 Web site owners that use LinkExchange products and services to promote and enhance their online properties every day,” said Mark Bozzini, CEO of LinkExchange. “Providing this audience with the tools they need to sell products and services from their Web sites is a natural extension of our business and the business of our customers.”

CyberCash and Cardservice International are strategic partners of Merchant Planet and work together to reduce the cost and confusion of setting up an online business, accepting credit cards online and creating a seamless experience for the user.
