    Don't use Epassporte...

    They make you load your account with $50 off your credit card (of course they take $5 of that), and then when I called them to find out how to get that money back, I was told if I wanted a check for that amount, I would be charged a $50 fee. Or I could buy an ATM card for $35 to get my money back.

    Just seems like a waste of money if you could just use something like Storm Pay for free. With my code of course: http://www.stormpay.com/?73921

                                  I'm not saying it's the end of the world, I'm saying WHY use a site that forces you to spend $50 when you can use something else?

                                      Since they're a start-up it's probably administrative overhead to make it worth it for them to setup the account. Weeds out the hundreds/thousands of dormant accounts that'd be created on Paypal type systems.

                                          Epassporte is not in the check writing business. They are in the business of worldwide acceptance, shopping anonymity, and Peer-to-Peer money transfers (with more features coming soon). Why would you open an account unless you planned to use it?

                                          If you don't want the account, spend your balance online with your Virtual Visa and that will be the end of it.

                                              $50 is the minimum load amount. It does not cost $50 to get a card. The load fee is $5 per hundred so if you really want to get the most for your money you should load $100.

                                              The minimum was set to $50 for a reason. Remember that EP is also a form of payment for surfers who have no other options. So, you want there to be enough funds on the card to guarantee a conversion if the surfer does not cancel. With most trial/conversion models the $45 balance on a $50 load would cover that.

                                              And yes, Jact has a point. Who needs to open accounts that will never be used. There "is" indeed a cost to issue the Epassporte Virtual Visa as well as the Visa Electron Card. For webmasters who use EP as a means of paying affiliates, content, etc... they can get a commercial account and avoid the load fees altogether. It's a lot cheaper, faster, and easier to do a P2P than send a check to someone. That's the webmaster/sponsor advantage.

                                                          $35 dollars for a card that gives you access to your cash isn't bad when you consider that it's less than the cost of two wires -or- for some countries the penalties/fees they incur to cash a check. Most affiliates pay a $2 check processing fee anyway so it really makes no difference and saves a lot of time too. Worth it wouldn't you agree?

                                                          The transfer to bank accounts from epassporte is coming soon (no date yet) but I don't yet know anything about cost. Epassporte has kept their fees lower than competitors with like features so I think they will be fair and reasonable.

                                                              Although they rip a hole in my ass for the incoming payments.



                                                              P.S. why do people like the person who started this thread use services without reating the terms first?

                                                                  Paypal's fees are damn cheap, they only pad their transaction fees by roughly 0.8% while other IPSPs pad theirs by up to 13%. From what I saw of Epassporte's fees (While very confusing -- Located in their ToS) still seem fairly reasonable. However I'd want to be sure I could get my businesses money to my business instead of having to spend it at an ATM.

                                                                      There are some similarities with epassporte and PayPal but each have there own merits.
                                                                      Loading funds onto your epassporte account is free to commercial account holders.

                                                                      It seems that the two biggest questions for epassporte are:

                                                                      1) When can I move funds from EP to my bank account?
                                                                      -and-
                                                                      2) When will I be able to load my personal account by any other means than credit card or P2P?

                                                                      The answer to each is already in the works.

Can you take a moment to explain publically the difference between a corporate account and a business account? I haven't looked at the new site but the old site really didn't outline the difference in why we'd need one or the other?

                                                                                                  Both accounts share the following:

                                                                                                  1) They are funded by wire transfer.

                                                                                                  2) They can issue Virtual and Electron Visa accounts to anyone they choose to pay.

                                                                                                  3) API's are available for creation of accounts, upgrading to Electron status, and disbursing payments to various affilaite accounts.


                                                                                                  A commercial account holder model would be a Sponsor program which pays it's affiliates with EP. The sponsor would use their account to create Virtual account for their affiliates and use those account to move money to them. The affiliate has control of their account in all other aspects and can reload their accounts with a credit card, and make and receive P2P transactions.

                                                                                                  A corporate account example might be a corporation who wants to provide account to employees but still be able to control what happens to the funds and be able to monitor spending. In other words, the commercial account can look into all affiliate accounts and see their balances, move balances back to the master account, block an account, monitor spending, etc.....

                                                                                                  It's really a matter of the level of control you have over affiliate accounts.

                                                                                                      Okay so I'm assuming I need a commercial account. Am I required to wire a opening balance? Am I required to maintain a balance of any kind? Can I open one without calling sales yet?

                                                                                                                          The new site looks really good I think. A great improvement in look and funtionality! https://www.epassporte.com
                                                                                                                          The design looks much better! But I'd definitely get rid of the irritating sound effects! Also, if you're going to use https it would be sensible to make all page elements secure otherwise IE issues a warning on each an every page.

                                                                                                                          The difference between a corporate and commercial account are easily explained. The difference is subtle but significant.

                                                                                                                          Both accounts share the following:

                                                                                                                          1) They are funded by wire transfer.

                                                                                                                          2) They can issue Virtual and Electron Visa accounts to anyone they choose to pay.

                                                                                                                          3) API's are available for creation of accounts, upgrading to Electron status, and disbursing payments to various affilaite accounts.


                                                                                                                          A commercial account holder model would be a Sponsor program which pays it's affiliates with EP. The sponsor would use their account to create Virtual account for their affiliates and use those account to move money to them. The affiliate has control of their account in all other aspects and can reload their accounts with a credit card, and make and receive P2P transactions.

                                                                                                                          A corporate account example might be a corporation who wants to provide account to employees but still be able to control what happens to the funds and be able to monitor spending. In other words, the commercial account can look into all affiliate accounts and see their balances, move balances back to the master account, block an account, monitor spending, etc.....

                                                                                                                          It's really a matter of the level of control you have over affiliate accounts.
                                                                                                                          I'd like to receive recurring business-to-business payments. Is that possible? And if so which account would I need?

                                                                                                                              Okay so I'm assuming I need a commercial account. Am I required to wire a opening balance? Am I required to maintain a balance of any kind? Can I open one without calling sales yet?
                                                                                                                              You need to contact sales. Try [email protected] or [email protected] to open a Commercial Account. There is some documentation required to meet the "Know Your Customer" rules. After the docs are signed you will need to then wire USD500 to open the account. These are your funds and not a fee. There is no fee to open the account.

                                                                                                                              The balance required is USD25.00, I beleive (I could be wrong on this one, but not by much).

                                                                                                                                  Thanks for the thoughts on the site. The sound bugs me too.

                                                                                                                                  The recurring is an upgrade happening soon. However, you can get B2B now. With a Commercial Account you can generate a file that we can execute for you, on whatever schedule you want, or you can use the API and do it yourself. So in reality you can effect a recurring charge, but not in the manner we all think of it - auto pilot - yet.

                                                                                                                                  Hope that answers your questions.

We would be happy to meet with anyone there to answer questions and to make deals.

Try [email protected] or [email protected] to open a Commercial Account. There is some documentation required to meet the "Know Your Customer" rules. After the docs are signed you will need to then wire USD500 to open the account. These are your funds and not a fee. There is no fee to open the account.

                                                                                                                                      The balance required is USD25.00, I beleive (I could be wrong on this one, but not by much).
                                                                                                                                      So this $500 transfer that's our funds.. How long do they have to stay within the Epassporte account? Is there a limitation on what can be done with them? Can I send it to you then take it back save for a $25 balance?

It's a minimum funding requirement. Just like when you open a checking account in a bank you have to start with a minimum load/deposit. You can write a check out for the whole thing the same day.

                                                                                                                                                      Seriously though, I can understand the $500 load, (Any bank I've dealt with in the last 15 years hasn't required me to deposit anything though, sooooo!) but anyhow. If I open a commercial account, can I get one of those Visa Electron card things on that account to withdraw a portion of the $500 load? Or do I need to get one personally and transfer a portion of it to that card (Loading it with $50 and paying $35 for the card! ) or how would it work?

                                                                                                                                                      You've 75% sold me on the whole Epassporte thing, which was a hard sale so I'm sure you'll go far with it

We'll put a little epassporte logo by your listing or something.

Can I get the electron card setup before my load goes through?

If a sponsor pays ONLY through epassporte *cough* spotbrokers *cough* theres no way to get your money besides paying 35$ for a ATM card and 2$ per withdraw. (No I don't want to spend my money I want to put my money in the bank)

Paypal is one big clusterfuck most days and other than them there isn't another of these setups that I would trust with a dime of my money. Especially not the ones that are MLM schemes, those are the LAST people I would trust. I like the fact that even before I agreed to do marketing for ePassporte I could pick up the phone and call someone I know, email them, whatever, and get an answer immediately to questions or concerns I had. And an answer from someone that I know well.

Can I get the electron card setup before my load goes through?

                                                                                                                                                                                  Good stuff. Right on.

                                                                                                                                                                                  If you're going to get a Commercial account, you should go ahead and get the agreement. Write to [email protected] and he'll send one out to you.

                                                                                                                                                                                  We can't initiate the account until you return the agreement with your wire, but, the Electron Card shows up pretty quickly. You being in Canada and all should get it in about 6-7 business days.

                                                                                                                                                                                  Keep in touch with me via email if you need any help.

Paypal was so successful because even a moron could figure it out... People are impatient -- nobody wants to dick around with long pages of instructions and wierd terminology.

                                                                                                                                                                                          Once something like Stormpay works out a nice simple and clean and fast interface to process adult website memberships, it will be hell on wheels... Also the MLM percentage is kindof small -- really I think MLM's are cool as shit, but they only give you .125% of the money... Better than nothing I suppose, but if they raised it I'd push it more... If your downline transfers $100,000, you only make $125... Hopefully it will be very popular so I can get at least $100,000 in my downline each month...

Paypal was so successful because even a moron could figure it out... People are impatient -- nobody wants to dick around with long pages of instructions and wierd terminology.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  Once something like Stormpay works out a nice simple and clean and fast interface to process adult website memberships, it will be hell on wheels... Also the MLM percentage is kindof small -- really I think MLM's are cool as shit, but they only give you .125% of the money... Better than nothing I suppose, but if they raised it I'd push it more... If your downline transfers $100,000, you only make $125... Hopefully it will be very popular so I can get at least $100,000 in my downline each month...

                                                                                                                                                                                                  ePassporte will have a simple, single tier reseller setup in place shortly, it's in programming now. When it will be done I can't say specifically but it's going to be along the same lines of how P**p** does there.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  MLMs make money for one small group of people -- those that started the company.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  Of course thats if they make it thru the FTC investigations and all the other pitfalls of an MLM first.
