URGENT! Help me take credit cards!

Hi,

Contact Netbilling. They will help you out.

Netbilling is the one who put me in touch with Card Service Int'l. Those bastards at Card Service then cut Netbilling out of the deal and screwed me out of my $500 application fee after rejecting me. They stopped taking my calls and I never heard from them again. Netbilling had said that the only option they had for me was Card Service, so I don't see them as an option unless something has changed.

In December last year, I ended up going with Small Merchant Services (third party biller) and have been satisfied with their service, but they just emailed me yesterday to say their processing bank has been acquired by another bank and is shutting down all accounts effective immediately. Lovely how they never give you any notice at all and just yank the rug out from under you, and always at the worst possible time (April-May are traditionally very bad sales-wise for my business). So now, after five months, I'm back in the market again for a low cost, high quality solution to process credit cards.

I sell physical goods only, but due to the nature of my product (violent death fetish/horror erotica, but no hardcore or illegal content), CCBill and Ibill won't handle me; I've spoken to both in the past. I must have a stable and reliable third party biller or offshore merchant account that won't rape me financially (not just in set-up fees but all fees) that pays in USD. I have a very low chargeback rate and have run credit card transactions responsibly since May 1997.

Any help would be appreciated, and quickly, because I am "dead in the water" sales-wise until I get credit card processing again. Thanks in advance for your help!

Anybody know anything about Financial Credit Merchant Services in Tempe, AZ?

Erortichorror, I can help you with a third party or merchant account solution. I can go over the different programs that we offer. Feel free to email me at [email protected] or call me at 517-540-9547.

Thanks, C&S; I'll email you.

Meanwhile, I'm still shopping around for the best and most economical solution to my problem, does anyone else have any leads for me? Everyone I've spoken to says GFY is the best place for this kind of help and advice, so I'd really appreciate getting some more replies.

By the way, my site is http://www.erotichorror.com

I'm also looking toward getting into electronic delivery of my exclusive content and would appreciate any advice on how to go about hiring the right people to get a pay site up and running in the next few months, and what kind of set up fees are involved.

SCSoffshore does not process for adult account, do they? Are you selling memberships? Please ICQ me at: 117496436 or call me at: 661-252-2456

Why don't you just get a merchant account with your local bank, that usually only takes opening a business checking account... Then use authorizenet.com as the CC gateway to your banks merchant account?

Why would you use Authorize.net's crappy system when you can use Netbilling or another good gateway?

Z

It sounded like Netbilling didn't work out for him. What other gateways would you suggest?

Are you an established adult site or new in the market? Humboldt Merchant Services is taking on established adult business as we speak.

Must be -
-2 years in business
-$100K+ in monthly processing
-under 1% ChargeBacks

If you meet these let me know. I have a suggestion or two for you as to what gateways to use also. These gateways I work with are designed specifically for the adult market and will help you manage your business and keep you CB's under 1%.

Rates etc:
4.00%
$0.30 per transaction
$10 statement fee
$2500 V/MC High Risk Registratin fee
$145 application fee (fully refundable)

Call or email so we can discuss in more detail.

Here it is the credit card processor taking over the internet.
ONLY 10% IN PROCESSING FEE!

Se my sig!

Anybody else have any advice or merchant account options?

Let me update my earlier response.... as long as you meet the processing requirements of Humboldt Merchant Services...
I can get you a rate of 2.40% on your tangible products sale.

Let me know if I can help

I can help you out with this. I need to know more about your product line and processing volume though. If everything checks out, I can probably get you a better deal than both of the above offers. If you are still looking for information you can contact me via email at [email protected] or on ICQ at 309485289

Have a good one.
