position in the Ecommerce market.Ê Many of their customers
had shopping facilities but at the moment did not offer real-time
credit card transactions. Ocean Internet wanted to know whether
they should contact a third-party or develop their own credit
card gateway into the bank network.
THE SOLUTION
Network Overdrive complied a report
that surveyed the market and informed the Directors of the various
options available to the company.Network Overdrive was then
commissioned to further scope the effort involved Ocean building
their own gateway.
Based on this information Ocean decided that a third-party option
was more viable than a customised solution.

with the information to make an informed business decision that
saved them tens of thousands of dollars.
Network Overdrive skilled analysts continued to present the
real business case for any technology venture without any romantic
notions.
