    Am I the only Company that never used...

    ePassporte?

    We've been paying by check and wires since 1995, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
    I like Chris and the gang, but it's good to say. We are in the Safe Zone.

    Sorry for all of you holding off to see what happens. I'm sure they will fix it and you will all get paid. If not, I can imagine the Lawsuit they will file against Visa or the Bank.

            we only used it when it was forced upon us by paycom back in the day as a payment option for customers. never for webmaster payouts despite probably over 1000 requests. the question is did the long time use result in more biz for those programs that did add them? tough math there. we are not happy about this stuff and wish our peers a speedy recovery.

                  We only use it to pay our affiliates that request it. I understand why foreign affiliates want to use the service. We still choose check, ACH or wire as our payment option when dealing with other companies.

                        I don't like epass at all. I don't like the way it's setup or the way you have to do stuff. I dunno, I can't really say much more than that.

                          Checks are so archaic. I can see how if you are like a normal dude living in the USA with your normal bank account and getting mail delivered to your house you like em, but if you have any kind of alternative arrangements checks are a huge pain in the ass

                          Checks and fax machines.

                                never used epass to pay affiliates, but its everyones personal choice if they wanted to use epass I hope that things get resolved favourabley especially for people who have money in epass, whether it be $1 or $millions

                                  I've always been annoyed at the few sponsors who did not offer check payments. Hopefully we'll see less of that from now on.

                                  You don't like my posts? Put me on ignore or fuck right off. I'll say what I want.

                                    I agree and I don't like wire transfers either. To much money!!

                                    I'm not going to pay $25 or even $35 or $40 for you to wire me my money and then the bank who charges me another $10 for incoming wire fees.

                                    I say give me a good old fashion check any day. It's free and although it may take a day or two longer to get my money .... but in the end, I have my money for sure and well, it didn't cost me anything to get it.

                                      now think about all the webmasters that prefer that payment method, and then all the big webmasters that will only use it. It definitely isnt 1996 anymore.

                                      Now take a deep breath and realize how many millions you left on the table.

                                              well I see this as disadvantage for your company

                                              Your competitors are able to pay me via epassporte and that's one of reasons why I'm with them, and not you

                                                Lots of people assuming the money in Epass is totally lost. If you have change in your wallet and just want to give it away Ill take it ;)


                                                when your money is on the roulette table, and the dealer just waved the hand, but the ball is still bouncing around the wheel....is it lost? or not? or....? thats where we're all at right now.

                                                some just have higher stakes

                                                  Now take a deep breath and realize how many millions you left on the table.

                                                    I think you've got to be ready to wait a long time to get whatever they owe you out.

                                                    If you understand that VISA just doesn't shut down programs without advanced warning for no reason one of the following seems likely to have happened:

                                                    - St. Kitts got notified by VISA of an impending closure for some term violation or at the behest of the FTC or another regulatory agency and didn't tell e-Passporte it was coming

                                                    - St. Kitts told e-Passporte and they've been running around behind the scenes trying to fix it without telling anyone and couldn't get it done

                                                    - VISA looked at the program and decided something so bad was going on that they had to close it down immediately to avoid a larger problem

                                                    I have a hard time believing that funds will be released if there's an investigation ongoing or if there's a huge problem with the program. It may take weeks or months to un-wind all of it.

                                                        Not really comparable. Wires require a high minimum and also a high fee. Whereas epass typically require a low or moderate minimum and very low fees, which several sponsors will cover for you.

                                                        Let's say you are promoting 10 different sponsors and make $200 a month with each. Using epass you'll get your full $2000. Using wires you probably won't get anything.

                                                                        I'm a lot more successful pushing traffic to 50-60 sponsors at a time, which results in a lot of $1-200 payouts...

                                                                        Also accessing the home bank account from other countries is possible, but for a long term solution the fees eat you alive. My story is a pretty unique one, but in an industry like this you're going to meet a lot of people who live outside the norm.
