YNOT – The new year literally raced from the starting gate for alternative payment processor 2000Charge when the company’s business development manager, Raphael “The Flying Dutchman” Berkien, took on all comers at the YNOT Grand Prix in Las Vegas. One of the events sanctioned by AVN’s Interext Expo trade show, the race allowed a field of new challengers to challenge Berkien, who appears to be this year’s driver to beat.

Berkien battled more than 50 other drivers during the course of the evening. Perseverance, combined with a little luck, lead to his victory in the final shootout. Now he’s waiting to take on a new batch of hopefuls in Barcelona during The European Summit. The YNOT Grand Prix Barcelona, presented by 2000Charge, will kick off the summit March 5 at Indoor Karting Barcelona.

The summit will continue through March 8, and after he trounces other racers during the YNOT Grand Prix, 2000Charge will be on hand to showcase its alternative payment services, Berkien said.

2000Charge is a primary sponsor of the adult industry’s championship kart-racing series, now in its third season. This year’s four component events take place on two continents: two in Europe and two in the U.S. After Barcelona, the YNOT Grand Prix will visit The Phoenix Forum March 30, presented by JuicyAds. Then it’s back to Europe in the fall for another YGP presented by 2000Charge in Prague. Berkien will attempt to hang onto his title in all four places, and 2000Charge representatives will be available to discuss the company’s services and explain the latest payment-processing trends that could impact the online adult industry.

Headquartered in Los Angeles, 2000Charge Inc. has provided global financial processing solutions to internet merchants since 1999.
