CommerceGate, Partners Win XBIZ Strategic Alliance of the Year

BARCELONA — CommerceGate is celebrating its 2009 XBIZ Award for Strategic Alliance of the Year with its partners SegPay and DHD Media.

This is the first time CommerceGate has been nominated for this prestigious distinction and the company is honored.

“This award exemplifies to us the importance of our partnership and the need in our industry for a truly dynamic and global billing solution,” CommerceGate CEO Bjorn Skarlen said. “We want to thank all of our clients and XBIZ for the support that they have given us; we could not succeed without them.”

The combination and collaboration of the three strong and influential processing companies has lead to positive response from the adult community.

“We are fulfilling a need that the market has been missing for some time now,” Skarlen said. “Our alliance greatly enhances our ability to provide sophisticated and competitive solutions to our industry.”

CommerceGate, as well as DHD Media, also were honored with a nomination for Billing Company of The Year. This is the third time CommerceGate has been nominated in this category for an XBIZ Award.
