    CCbill Visa Reg. Process and New Info

    I have returned from NY and have additional information from our Banks and Visa regarding the new IPSP rules.

    We will be sending an email on Wednesday to all CCbill Clients regarding the Registration process, but due to the questions posted ealier I have posted this.

    I will try to answer some of the basic question, with more details to follow in Wednesday email


    1. The new IPSP rules are worldwide, and will be in effect in every Visa region on Nov 15th.

    2. Visa stated that 80+% of all adult webmasters are located in the US. and they plan to enforce the Crossboarder issue vigorously on any US webmaster processing offshore.
    (This means if you are a US webmaster you must process your transactions in a US bank. If you are French you need to process your transactions in a EU bank)

    3. Visa expressed they are aware of claims from some of our competitors that they would be able to avoid New IPSP rules. Visa response this was absolutely not the case and these companies will be speaking with their acquiring banks shortly. In fact Visa was quite upset regarding this issue.

    4. On Wednesday CCbill will be starting U.S. webmaster registration.

    5. Registration Forms will be available late Wed. in your admin section.

    6. U.S. Webmasters will be give a choice of deducting the $750 registration over 1 to 3 pay periods prior to Nov 15th.

    7. The GOOD NEWS. CCbill will be offering a $750 Credit to current and New customers
    Here is how it works. You still have to pay the $750 up front. CCbill will be refunding your processing fees on new transactions ONLY (not rebills) for the next 9 months. Once you have reached the $750 processing credit your normal processing fees will begin again on your new transactions. Bottom line, continue to send new transactions and CCbill will pay the fee.

    7. Foreign Webmaster registration will begin on Oct 28th. in the Webmaster section

    8. We are working with Visa on the exact reporting info and fees for the different Visa Regions.

    9. We expect to be able to offer our foreign webmasters a solution in the EU region and Asia Pacific Regions. More details and Registration process will be available on the 28th

    10. We will know more later this week with Canada. We now feel there is a 50/50 chance that we will also be able to offer Canadian Webmasters a solution.


    This should answer most of the questions. If you have any others please feel free to post them

      I don't understand this - this is the move of a company that's afraid it's going to lose customers. Why would you fear this, since in the world according to the big 3, you've got us by the balls? "There's nowhere to run", etc?

      I just plain don't understand this. And if you tell me it's because you're such good people, I'll laugh in your face. ;>

                Word from Visa would be much more expected. This "he said, she said" bull shit is ridiculous.

                  who exactly qualifies as a US webmaster? must be resident of US? citizen of US? incorporated by a resident of the US?

                  Can you please explain this? The presence requirements are really vague

                  Also, I HIGHLY doubt that 80% of webmasters are from US. There's a TON of people from Europe and Canada.

                      Yikes:

                      3. Visa expressed they are aware of claims from some of our competitors that they would be able to avoid New IPSP rules. Visa response this was absolutely not the case and these companies will be speaking with their acquiring banks shortly. In fact Visa was quite upset regarding this issue.

                      There was a lot of talk on GFY about how other companies were going to skirt this issue. I can't wait to hear their response.....

                      And as for the statement that CCBill/IBill/Epoch has webmasters by the balls...... That's not true. You are free to take in money any way you can, including your own merchant account. Let me know how that works for you.

                        I had CCbill since 1999?2000?

                        I have about equal rebills with Verotel and with CCbill!!

                          As a ccbill customer, it sounds very fair Ron. So far it sounds like CCBill and Jettis have come through with sharing the costs. Where's Epoch?

                          As for the claim that Visa is upset with other processors claiming there's no need for a Visa fee, I'm curious what GloBill and AC Pay have to say.

                          Please enlighten us...

                                    Fair enough, competition is well and good - but look at it this way.. The big 3 maintain that we pretty much HAVE to go with them, that Globill and the rest are out to lunch and death lurks that way.. So why the incentive to stay? As far as they're concerned, you basically have no options.. Why would a CCbill customer suddenly switch to Epoch or IBill for instance? CCBill is the shining light of God compared to those two.

                                    Just seems out of place.

                                          So what defines a US Webmaster? Ibill is saying we are ok with an LLC and tax ID, what is CCBill's interpretation?

                                          Hopefully the Canadian thing will work out. Is this because there is a Canadian bank, or because Visa will overlook the rule for Canada because Visa Canada does not want the business?

                                            The answer is yes you will need to have a EU company unless they have US banking relationships to settle your transactions.

                                            Believe what you want, the bottom line is most people that had any rebills at all would have had to pay the $750 anyway to continue. I would just call it Great Marketing since we have not dropped in new daily sales since this all started.

                                              Not trying to imply anything here, I just think it's weird, as you are exactly right - why would anyone switch? We're forking over the $750, as we have way too much money still tied up in CCBill..

                                              Cheers,

                                                  It is because we are working with 3 different Canadian banks that are reconsidering their position. I will know more later this week

                                                      I am also worried about how having a non adult, non high risk merchant account thru moneris is gonna conflict with having a shitload of rebills in CCBill?

                                                      ahhh. Wish I had a lawyer who knew some solid facts.

                                                      Its good to see CCbill is at least attempting to find a solution.

I just feel that CCbill customers should be informed to the best of our ability with the information provided by the card associations. What each business man does with this information is their choice.

                                                                                        I wouldn't blame CCBill or any of the other credit card processing companies on this. Seems to me that Visa is still unable to answer CCBill's questions. I think Visa knows what it's doing here.

                                                                                                    Due to all the mechanisms it put in place many months ago, including major changes to its business model, opening international corporations and international merchant solutions in every appropriate jurisdiction, *Glo-Bill has once again passed muster and has the gold seal of approval. All my previous posts on this subject still stand.*

                                                                                                    I won't name any names but a number of our competitors have attempted to use our posts to this board to distort our position, as if we were thumbing our nose to the card associations or trying to "avoid" rules. Nothing could be further from the truth of course as we have gone overboard in order to work with, not against, all of the appropriate agencies. We have evidence where at least two of our competitors copied and then EDITED posts I made to this board and forwarded these distortions to various banks, to make it look like I was saying something very different than what I had said. In any case, based on the advice of other executives of Glo-Bill, I will no longer be posting details about our business model on this board. I would invite interested webmasters to simply email my staff directly.

                                                                                                    It is business as usual at Glo-Bill.

                                                                                                    Let's just say that there are many desparate companies out there who have chosen to play dirty pool against us. I liken them collectively to Willie E. Coyote. Every morning for the past several weeks they have gone to the ACME factory to pick up their blueprints. But time and time again, the anvil predictabley drops on their heads by the end of the day.

                                                                                                    In that regard, I will sign off my last post with an appropriate tongue-in-cheek comment:
