Paycom is simply offering paysites the ability to do cross-sales and this is a legitimate means of driving additional revenues. In fact, a lot of people (myself included) depend on this business model such that sponsors can continue paying the rates they do to webmasters.

If you truly hate cross-sales, then simply don't offer them. I wouldn't go on a rampage because a processor offers this legitimate ability to maximize revenues/profits.

Very well said. Cross sales are not mandatory...either the sponsor offering them or the customer taking them. Everyone has the option
