Paysite Access Giftcards?

Has any program ever tried something like that? Giftcards for pornsite access? Say, 1 month access, 3 months access, one year access?

Since it is quite popular in the mainstream biz and you can find it from Amazon to BestBuy, I wonder if it'll pull in the adult biz...
The clientele would be most likely limited to good buddies buying those for each other, but maybe it'd be worthwhile...




Discuss...

Interesting idea, been talked about a bit already, I just don't see that it would make enough to be worth it to the adult industry.

I think the big program owners could make a killing off of this idea, especially since the giftcard could be used across all their sites. Any more opinions?

I really don't see people givng others gift cards to porn sites. Not on a big enough level to make it worthwhile, at least.

intresting idea.. but: people could also buy a month acces and make a gift card by themselves with the accescodes on it and cancel it after a month.

nochmal deutsch :D :

die leute könnten ja auch einfach nen zugang normal kaufen und sich ne eigene karte basteln die sie dem kumpel dann schenken.

The thing with porn is people like to keep their porn viewing descreet. Sex related stuff is rarely bought for someone else unless it's a gag gift or a very close partner. I don't see someone giving the gift of porn as being very popular. "Here you go Johnny. Merry x-mas I got you a pass to gay midget cum suckers 'cause I know you like that sort of thing. Enjoy"

It would make office x-mas parties more fun. Why not offer it?

Do the big sites give a special link page to their members where they can join their other sites on a free trial or big discount? Would someone sell me a link like that?

That's a sexual harassment suit waiting to happen.

"About 10 percent of the money on gift cards - about $5 billion this year - is never used, Andreoli said. "

A good read on gift cards in general
