Ikobo

As far as I can tell, Ikobo is processing adult in violation of the rules concerning credit card processing for adult sites. This is probably why they lost Mastercard earlier this year. I sent them an email asking about processing adult and I got this amusing reply which seems to indicate that they know perfectly well that they're not allowed to do it:

"After reviewing your website, we have approved the servicing of your account. You can now sign up and setup your account at your convenience. Please be certain to select fine arts as your industry type in your merchant profile and to use non-iKobo or generic buttons on your sites. Also, please do not post the iKobo logo or banners on your website. We look forward to helping you fulfill your merchant processing needs."

That is one of the funniest emails I've seen. It would be great to send another asking why they don't want you to use the logo
