在兼顧扶植電子商務產業發展與保護消費者權益的原則下，行政院於日前同意第三方支付儲值服務在國內開辦。為順利推動此業務，短期內將先以《電子票證發行管理條例》做為法源依據，准予金融與非金融機構（如網路平台業者）提供第三方支付網路儲值服務；長期規劃上，將研訂兼顧「產業發展」及「金流管理」之電子商務第三方支付服務管理專法，以協助國內電子商務平台業者跨國營運，擴大市場商機並加速產業創新發展。

The Executive Yuan has decided, under the principles of supporting the development of e-commerce and protecting the interests of consumers, to put third-party payment services online. The Executive Yuan reports that, using the Act Governing the Issuance of Electronic Stored Value Cards as the legal basis, financial and non-financial institutions (such as internet platform providers) will first be allowed to provide third-party payment services; in the longer term, a special law governing third-party e-commerce payments will be worked out to provide for both the development of the industry and cash-flow management so as to help domestic e-commerce platform providers engage in cross-border operations, expand market opportunities, and speed up the development of innovation in the industry.
