ARS Discreet Card? - GoFuckYourself.com

I haven't kept up with all the changes at ARS. Is the Discreet Card still available to promote? Does anyone promote it, and if so how's it doing? Thanks

In the way that the company that issued it didn't seem to be serious and there were lots of bugs on their site and ( but i am not sure here ) even apparently some problems with the delivery of that card.
From what I know the idea was great but unfortunately a great idea is not enought for a good product.

What did the discreet card do?

Is that the same thing as duocash?

cath · 03-15-2004, 04:56 PM

It's a prepaid Mastercard. No credit check, no social security number, no statements mailed to your house, etc.

I use to deal directly with them when I use to work at ARS. They are good people and the product is a great idea, but they had that problem of not sending the cards when they were ordered and not answering questions when they were asked about it. I remember the above non-received card incident and its exactly like he said, he didnt get the card and it seemed like they didnt really care. Hit me up if you still want to do business with them and I can drop them a line for you.

You may also want to look at Duocash as an addiltional way to process transactions along with your credit card processor.

We enable pre-paid phone cards to be used, which means that we have nothing to do with VISA/MC and we are not subject to their regulations.

We are not looking to be a replacement for credit cards, but rather an anonymous, additional method to get customers who might otherwise not want, or be able, to give CC# to adult sites.
Our system also works very well for micropayments as there is no per transaction fee of 15 to 50 cents like CC transactions.

Perhaps you may want to take a look at Duocash

http://www.duocash.com/merchants.jsp

We are putting together some VERY large deals that will be implemented in the next 60 days or so that will put us all over the US and Canada, and we are in discussions to expand to Australia and the EU.

We are not in the business of selling phone cards. The problem with earlier business models has been distribution of proprietary cards. The retailers won?t stock the cards if the customers aren?t asking for them. The consumers aren?t aware of the cards if they aren?t on retailers shelves. It?s a chicken and egg type of issue.

In our case, we have done something different. We are taking a product that is ALREADY on the shelves, in distribution online, and in call centers. We are enabling the existing phone cards that are already on the market and being distributed, to be used by consumers to purchase digital content on the internet. This also avoids the issue of a single-use card that won?t be carried by retailers and distributors because of perception problems associated with a card that is specific to adult, gaming, etc?

You can contact me on my mobile or my email at any time for any questions you might have.

Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
