The Fund Pro/Latin America enables basic users – who pay nothing to enter
the site – to search the site’s article and performance database.
However, much of this content is viewable only by preferred users, who pay
an annual fee to access all articles and performance data.
This restricted content is summarized for basic users, giving them an idea about the contents – for example, the date, word count, author, language - and an option to purchase and download instantly using the “pay per view” feature of the site. Users in essence pay (using their credit card) to view only the information that is most important to them.
When you reach an article of interest, click on the shopping cart to add the article to place it on a list to be purchased. At this point you may “check out” and pay for the article or keep browsing the site, adding other articles to your list.
Please note that when your credit card information is authorized, you will automatically be granted permanent access to the purchased articles, as long as you sign in with the same user name.
Certain “premium research” available only in hard copy format, as well as access to conferences and other events can be purchased by both basic and preferred users directly on the site, without having to pick up the telephone or send emails.
Financial transactions using credit cards on fundpro.com are extremely safe. They are conducted using 40-bit secure socket layer (SSL) encryption, provided by Verisign Inc. That means that all information sent to this site, if in an SSL session, is encrypted, protecting against disclosure to third parties.
According to Verisign, 95% of all secure Web sites worldwide use VeriSign Secure Server IDs to authenticate themselves and to enable SSL encryption to protect sensitive data and transactions.
