Another question arises why can't sponsors pay funds directly into your bank account? It surely won't be more expensive or administratively complex than processing a cheque or doing an epass transfer. Am I missing something here?

I believe I saw somewhere on my card or so that they are located on the Netherlands Antilles. I dont know if they are regulated by the Dutch central bank since the Antilles have a different currency.
Here's whats on the card:
This card is issued by "St. Kitts-Nevis-Anguilla National Bank Limited" ("Bank") pursuant to a license from Visa International and under a co-branding agreement between ePassporte N.V. and the bank.
So Epassporte is on the Netherlands Antilles and their underlying bank is somewhere else (US?).
