EMAIL MONEY TRANSFERS (Beam Cash)
Send money to another person using email. Once you have transferred cash to your hyperWALLET from your Rochdale account, simply go to the “Beam Cash” tab in your Wallet and enter the recipient’s email address, the amount to send, and a message to the recipient. The cash will be transferred from your Wallet to the recipient’s Wallet and an email will be sent to the recipient informing them of the transfer. You can also require the recipient to answer a security question to accept the cash. The recipient must then log into their Wallet and accept or reject the cash to finalize the transaction. If the recipient doesn’t have a Wallet, hyperWALLET will hold the funds in a special account until the user signs up, and then transfer the cash. You as the sender can cancel the transfer at any time prior to the recipient’s acceptance of the cash.

EXCHANGE CURRENCIES
hyperWALLET is a multi-currency system supporting both Canadian and American dollars. Although only Canadian dollars can be transferred into hyperWALLET from a bank account at this time, once the funds are in the Wallet, Canadian dollars can be converted to American dollars and vice versa in real-time, based on the hyperWALLET exchange rate. American dollars can be used for any payment transaction performed with hyperWALLET such as email transfers, auction payments and transferring money into an American bank account.

WEB CHEQUE PAYMENTS
The hyperWALLET web cheque is a blank payment form similar to a real world cheque. You generate the HTML code with the Web Cheque Tool and add the code to your web site. This code will then display the hyperWALLET logo on the your web site. A buyer shopping on a web site accepting hyperWALLET payments decides they want to buy Grandma’s Homemade Strawberry Jam so they click on the hyperWALLET logo which will redirect them to the hyperWALLET web site. The user will login to hyperWALLET, or signup if necessary, enter the payment amount and details and confirm the payment. An email is sent to the web site vendor notifying them of the payment including any shipping or order details included with the payment by the buyer.
