I got some money today!
But of course...when I tried to move it from the account into Redpass...it didn't load as usual. And now...if it's like the last 10 times in a row, it will be a week before someone answers my ticket and tells me they will "escalate" it with the bank. And then another 3 or 4 days before I ever get it. |
I finally got paid yesterday. 1/6 overdue payments... Fingers crossed the rest arrive while I jump ship

I recommend you do not do that. That is just shooting yourself in the foot. If the worst case scenario happens and Zombaio goes out of business and does not pay, then the worst thing which could happen is you do not get paid for those members at all and you tell them the truth about what happened to you and hopefully they re-join with another processor. If you just cancel your members, then you definitely do not get paid for those members at all, unless maybe some re-join with another processor after you burned them, assuming you can get your password file correct. The likely scenario is that Zombaio will pay you late. Would you rather get something later than expected or nothing ever? |

Stop the witch hunt. Everyone should want them to succeed. If they do, you do. Drag them down like GloBill and iBill, who does that help? No one. Chill. |

Sorry wrong reply

I got paid...

They owe me a mere $340 from earlier this month. Won't send me the damn wire. Luckily I use them for a dying site. So, my payouts trigger every 6 weeks or so. Of course I've made it a routine that when payout day hits, I open a ticket and begin hassling them for 4 weeks till I get my wire.
By the way here is a copy of the mass email they sent last weekend: Dear Zombaio Client, As I am sure you have noticed, we have been experiencing more problems than usual in paying out on time recently and many people have speculated (as they have done for years) that we are on the verge of going out of business. Whilst we understand that many of you have lost money when other processors have gone out of business in the past, and that you understandably get nervous when payments are late, we want to assure you that our problems are temporary and a knock on effect of issues our main acquirer had with their USD settlement and exchange bank which meant that their settlements to us were quite significantly delayed. We tried to keep things going as best as we could from our reserves during this period, but this caught us a little unaware, and it has taken time for us to straighten things out which I am pleased to say that we now have and we should be able to bring everybody''s settlements fully up to date during the course of next months. We will however need to make changes ongoing if we are to avoid falling back in this hole. When we first came to the market we tried to give both the best rates and the fastest payouts and we now know that unless you have a much greater share of the market than we do, and a faster settlement than our acquirers are able to give us, this is quite an impossible model to sustain. Consequently, we have decided to stop trying to be the cheapest AND the fastest and concentrate on being a reliable low cost processor which of course means we need to change our terms of business. Rather than just giving people the choice of accepting our new terms or finding a new processor, we have decided to come up with 3 different pricing/settlement models that we are confident we can deliver ongoing and that we hope at least one of which is workable for your business. The choices are as follows: 1. Monthly - settlement around 20th of the month for previous months transactions. 1.2% decrease in our normal fees and usual 5% rolling reserve. 2. Bi-Weekly settlement periods. Paid out around 20 days after period end. We will continue to offer existing rates and usual 5% rolling reserve. 3. Weekly settlements. Paid out around 20 days after period end. Normal rates increased by 3.5% and rolling reserve increased to 10% All of these options will continue to free of any annual card fees and it is our intention to switch to these new terms on 1st June. Your account will by default be changed to the monthly payouts option with your processing rate automatically reduced by 1.2% but if you prefer to change to the bi-weekly payouts option at your existing rates or our weekly payouts option at the premium rate with the increase in reserve, all you have to do is logon to ZOA after 1st June and make the switch in "change banking details". I very much regret that we have to make these changes, but I feel that going forward, it is important that you can count on Zombaio the way you used to be able to in the past. Our interest in this business is long term, and whilst I accept that we have made mistakes in the past, a lot of these have come from us trying to improve the service that we offer. We were the first processor to offer settlement to a prepaid card, and we were the first to offer EU payment by ACH. It has not been without problems of course, but we will keep working on these things until the problems disappear. In addition, we will shortly be adding some exciting new payment options for your customers. These include SEPA Debit, SOFORT banking and BitCoin. For CAM sites we will add a new API for card on file debits which we have been testing with very good results during the last few months. We will continue to try new ideas, but in the future, we will try to do so without impacting on the efficiency of our core operation. We really are sorry for any inconvenience and stress our unreliability recently has caused especially if you have reached out to Support or to me personally and not received the answer or action that you were looking for. I hope that you now understand a little better our situation and will give us a chance to earn back your trust over the coming months. If anything in this email is not clear or if you have any questions or comments, please let us know. Best regards, Tomas Anderson VP, Zombaio LLC |

Ponzi 101. Get what they owe you and move on to a more reputable processor :2 cents: |
It wouldn't bother me so much that its late, but what bothers me is that there is no definite date.
|
I got paid 1/4 of what im owed today
|
I got 2 payouts last week. It's the 2nd there and they said on the 1st you'd be able to change your payout dates and would be moved to monthly? What ever happened with that?
|
they're suppose to send 3 payments this month

These guys have clearly been insolvent for sometime. In some countries it is actually illegal to continue to trade when you are unable to settle your debts.
Given that only a fraction of their customer base will be gfy readers, and then given that losts of peeps will be too ashamed to actually voice their concerns, I would imagine that they need a considerable cash input to remain in business. So they plan to increase their margin to return to profitability, even if they manage that it will be a long long time before they fix their balance sheet. If ever. In short jump. They are fucked. |
Well, here I am again playing the "RedPass Did Not Load" game. :(
Fucking shit is really, really starting to piss me off. |

It's just unreal... 2 years ago I was processing through them and my money through them was growing very nicely. I can't fathom why they would destroy themselves like this. If they drove me off with this bullshit, you know they have driven every other person off too. No way they are going to have the incoming revenue to continue. It's just stupid on their part. |

You guys are making fun of him, but think of how hard some webmasters work to make their money, hours upon hours in front of their computers, and then someone pulls the rug from under their feet, and they don't get paid for their hard work.

But for fuck's sake, when you do what they have done you are doing the OPPOSITE of greed. This isn't just like Epassporte. That was nothing but a way to send money. This is a billing processor. A steady flow of revenue that was pretty damn big. To take people's money and use it on something else, fuck up your business, and end up ruined...that's like leaving tens of millions of dollars on the table. If they had stuck to their original business plan, they would have continued to grow. And by now they would be on of the biggest in the adult industry. And that revenue would have continued on for years and years. Look at CC Bill. They are greedy as fuck. But they are also smart. There is more money to be made over the long run than in doing something stupid like Zombaio has done. They committed suicide. |

Right now the situation doesnt look that bad.
Zombaio have sent me one week ago 2 out of the 6 late payouts, today I got another 2 payments and the last 2 have changed status from payout processed to payout cleared. Definetely zombaio got their shit together and they are working hard in order to fix the issue. |

Other than the the no Visa/MC fee, this company has no upside and plenty of down. Remember "Hope is not a strategy" |

No Zombaio payment in over 2 weeks. Anyone else getting their payments?
|
Welcome to Zombaio's new payment model they email you about, you will have to wait about 1 month before getting any payments, net 30-45 + this is for your payments that are already 2-3 weeks late.
Try to pay what they owe you last month, with this month's earnings , Ponzi 101 :thumbsup |

Don't worry you will eventually get some money and when you do Zombaio will have the nerve to say the payment is on time per the new terms...lol
Get away from these guys if and while you can. |
And one payment has shown up. Now only 4 more to catch up. Come on Zombaio, you can do it!

6 payouts on delay :(

Thanks for the promise to catch up on payment, Zombaio! Interestingly enough, they were paying me out faster before they said they were going to catch up on payments. |
I remember when Zombaio started I asked them in a thread here on GFY if they would allow their clients to move their members to another processor (ie ccbill or epoch) they said they would.
Did anyone try doing that ? I'm sure other processors would be happy to assist with such transits. |
