LOS ANGELES—The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) has named Cosmo Payment as its newest corporate sponsor.
A nonprofit organization supported by its members and sponsors for more than 29 years, ASACP is dedicated to enhancing and promoting online child safety by encouraging corporate and parental responsibility. As a corporate sponsor, Cosmo Payment joins a wide range of organizations that have helped fund the organization over the years.
With a tagline of “the industry’s best way to pay and get paid,” Cosmo Payment offers payout solutions designed to help online businesses send funds to a global network of companies and creators. The company offers corporate payout tools, with recipient-focused debit cards available in both virtual and physical formats. Cosmo Payment also offers batch and API-based mass payments with multi-currency support, local bank transfers, and crypto payouts, along with customized onboarding processes tailored for distributed teams.
Cosmo Payment collaborates with issuing and processing partners within relevant regulatory frameworks and prioritizes adherence to standard compliance practices, including KYC/AML screening and data security measures. For recipients, a card-focused approach can reduce the time from payment approval to funds being available compared to traditional cross-border transfers. For payers, centralized dashboards and automated tools enable large-scale, recurring payouts, customizable controls, and reporting tools, among other benefits.
“An essential and well-overdue development, Cosmo Payment is proud to not only support ASACP in its ongoing efforts dedicated to online child protection, but also the industries that require the tools and support to ensure child protection throughout,” said Cosmo Payment CEO Anthony Nocella. “Together, we are building stronger, safer, and more responsible frameworks for the entire community.”
For its part, the association welcomes Cosmo Payment to its family of respected industry leaders known for their significant contributions to corporate responsibility, ethical business practices, and for implementing measures that improve child safety.
“With the global regulatory framework in flux, companies such as Cosmo Payment must take a more active role in protecting minors and other vulnerable users from accidental exposure to age-restricted materials online,” ASACP’s Executive Director, Tim Henning, explained. “With so many profound changes underway, it is crucial that an informed and united industry helps lead the way.”
ASACP utilizes the support it receives to improve online child safety, while promoting the rights of consenting adults, by encouraging effective age verification, parental education, and stakeholder responsibility.
These efforts include providing a free set of child protection resources for parents, Best Practices tailored to specific adult market segments, and a comprehensive Code of Ethics for all website and mobile app publishers.
Among ASACP’s most notable achievements are its RTA (Restricted To Adults) meta-labeling system, which prevents children from accessing adult-oriented web pages and apps, and its CSAM Reporting Tipline, which has received and processed 1.6 million reports since its inception and remains a vital global resource.
“ASACP uses the support it receives from industry leaders such as Cosmo Payments to make our services and tools freely available to parents and the broader community,” Henning added. “These resources help empower families, companies, and content creators of all sizes to prevent minors from accessing age-restricted content.”
“On behalf of the association and the children we protect, we are truly grateful for the continued support we receive,” Henning concluded. “With your help, we are all making a difference.”
