Aramex plans online shopping card

Abu Dhabi: Courier firm Aramex International has been appointed as the Middle East distributor of an online shopping card launched by maktoob.com. Aramex will deliver the CashU cards from all its outlets in the Middle East. CashU cards allow consumers to buy anything on online with no risk. Buyers do not have to disclose income details to obtain a CashU card. The pre-paid cards come in three denominations -- $10 (500 CashU's), $20 (1,000 CashU's) or $30 (1,500 CashU's). Shoppers can buy stuff directly from websites that accept cashU's. The required number of cashU's is then accordingly deducted from the user's card balance. For sites that don't use the cashU system, the customer can submit details of the product. This service is offered to the customer at no extra cost.
