Manx Telecom, the Isle of Man telecommunications company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of BT, will deploy Dublin-based firm Trintech's PayWare eHost secure payment gateway for it's new, hosted e-commerce initiative.

Manx Telecom is working closely with the Isle of Man government and local businesses to provide end-to-end, offshore eBusiness services.

Earlier this week it announced it had made the first data call over its 3G network on the Isle of Man. BT is using Manx Telecom as a testing ground for its own 3G strategy.
