Plurchase uses a neat idea to act as a proxy for shopping sites. They don't seem to be storing passwords before sending them off to the actual sites (which is good). I hope it takes off. Good luck!


Also, since all of your actions go through them, they attach their affiliate codes to every purchase. It's a better way of bringing in revenue than littering your site with ads of teeth falling out.
