Here is the big picture......say webmaster x wants an afiliate program, wants to process cc's...wants someone to pay his webmasters....and handle fraud.....go with third party then.
Say webmaster y wants to make millions of dollars....wants to innovate...NOT REPLICATE....wants to impliment his/her own fraud control based on their specific needs......wants the abbility to serve his/her own customers based on their specific needs....also wants to customize their site to produce a completely unique signup process....wants to actually pay for a killer affilate program with referring urls and every other bell and whistle to boot....you do things right.
you put up with the merchant bank ripping you and your new business to shreds....this is called CYA....you know what it stands for.....you run your operation tight....I know I want all refunds to be approved by me...no one else....and if visa or MC comes a calling....Im damn sure that I can prove that mr or mrs customer approved that transcation....often times...people are just confused...you set them straight..keyword is YOU....id be way pisseed if some 10 buck an hour employee was making business decisions for me...based on some policy that was felt to be acceptable for everyone.
oh wait thats communism...lol
I know this much and other than that Im a dumbfuck...... I wish to control my business as how I see fit....I have no need for someone else setting standardized ploicies for how I run my biz.....It is up to me....and only me...to make sure that my customers never ever have a probelem...if they do...then I solve it before the report me to their cc comapny.
So, if you want a 18 yr old handling your customer service....and please someone from a third party tell me otherwise......then just go along being average.
ps...im a bit yegerred up
