Enough is enough, time for a thread. In the last two days another 3 of my CCBill sponsors changed from CCBill only to MPA3/NATS...giving me a good reason to drop them. Well, I probably won't, but I'm really close to doing a big cleanup.
Why ? Shouldn't I be happy about possibly more income ?
NO ! Nubiles and FTV stayed with CCBill, so it's not a necessary step to change to your own interface, even if a program grows. It's annoying to replace linkcodes and I rarely saw any big improvements after a change like this. 20-30% more signups ? In your dreams maybe !
I often pick CCBill for a reason: I trust them, it's convenient to merge accounts, I don't get even more checks and I can check my stats in one place.
Lately, the trend to change from CCBill to cascading billing seems to increase again and I'm so fucking tired of this game. Yes, I know my old linkcodes still work, but I'll have to enter my data again, check even more stats, etc.
I know some people will start praising MPA3/NATS, it's fine for me when I signup for a program running it's own interface from the beginning....but especially in niches I don't have loads of traffic for, I prefer CCBill. Ever had the idea that someone may prefer your program to others for this reason only ?
Enough whining, but for me the extra sales I may make this way don't don't make up for the inconvenience caused.
