Hmm...May I have one of those please?

mayor, epassporte is a horrible option for non US webmasters as i cant transfer the funds to my bank account. they have withdrawal fees and limits. i understand your reasoning, but i think you're inadvertedly penalizing your international affiliates, including myself :(

tony286 01-08-2007 03:21 PM

Im curious epassporte is a offshore company , pretty sure has no guarantee for deposits. So if they go ever go under will mayors money repay their affiliates deposits lost, considering they are pushing them to use this service?
Customer Service 101 your convenience doesn't matter your affiliates does.

bdld 01-08-2007 03:25 PM

can someone from MM go into my account and change my payout method to epass, im not getting the confirmation/verification email.

Actually already more than 80% of my affiliates are using epass because getting the money instantly is more convenient for them.


Rabbit, hit me up on ICQ I'll see if we can figure something out for you. I am not forcing epass on anyone. Just trying to make it more appealing.

Looks fine to me, I'll double check with NATS to see why it's still saying it needs verification.

Some would argue that charging a fee results in lower payouts. ;)

Not to miss a low blow, Sexbankroll doesn't charge fees on any payment that comes out of our office.

Props to you boys over at Mayors Money:thumbsup

Sarah_Jayne 01-08-2007 03:45 PM

at least they are offering a free option. In the last few weeks I have looked at at least three sponsors that are charing for every option including eppassporte.

I prefer direct deposit myself. Your bank statement serves as a hardcopy.

Only a handful of spnsors offer that so I have to settle for mostly checks.

I don't mess with wires because those fees add up when you're getting paid from like 20 different places.

I don't mess with epass either. I like to deal with only my bank.

tenderobject 01-08-2007 03:52 PM

i have a awful epass card can you guys give me a new card? :P is it possible to have two accts on epass (stupid question)

since epass just eat up those yearly fees without giving the clients new cards :(

nico-t 01-08-2007 03:56 PM

pretty ridiculous... cashing a check at the bank is about $15 here, so that would make it $20 total for everyone who wants a piece.. i use the epass payout at MM but still....

madawgz 01-08-2007 03:57 PM

that seems like a high fee to send a check out...

They charge you $15 a check even if you have a bank account?

Fuck that.

RawAlex 01-08-2007 03:59 PM

I am trying to figure out what an audit would look like with an epass card in the middle of the game. Ugly.

aico 01-08-2007 04:01 PM

I spend twice that in a day on Lattes.

When did this industry get filled up with so many crybabies??

You're allowed to talk shit about a company, then when the talk shit back about you have a tizzy fit? If you can't take what you dish out, then don't dish it out.

flashfire 01-08-2007 04:02 PM

paying for payments is bullshit...I would never pay unless its a special request or wire ect.

And I spend even more on bar tabs almost daily.

I look at it this way.

If I had to spend $5 for every sponsor check over the course of the year it would add up to $1000 - $1500 per year.

I figure 20 - 30 checks in all sizes from various sponsors monthly.

Granted that isn't alot of money annually a thousand dollars is still a thousand dollars.

Seriously though checks are rather dumb and I wish more sponsors would setup direct deposits.

Snake Doctor 01-08-2007 04:15 PM

Epass payments are fine as long as you offer wires to your whales.

If you make more than 4K a week with one sponsor epass is horrible because the withdrawal limit is $600 per day to your bank account. So basically you never get all of your money in the bank, in which case a check is preferable.

WiredGuy 01-08-2007 04:16 PM

I personally prefer checks so that it streamlines with my accountant, we don't typically take wires or other electronic payments. Still, $5/check isn't the end of the world.

Looking at it this way I can also see why the program in question opted to add the $5 fee.

They probably make a killing with all the checks they have to mail out :1orglaugh

What are the rules set for an affiliate to be accepted to your program?

Mayor 01-08-2007 04:26 PM

I am adding a "big check" option to meet half way. If you insist on getting a check and not being charged then select "Big Check" and set your min payout at $500 or $1000. If insist on being paid in smaller amounts you can do so but you'll be paying $5 for the small checks.

Or you can take epass payments at no fee.

there's not too many rules, its more of a case to case basis, enables us to really work with the affiliate and make more and more $$$ together, let's chat and do some biz together :)

That is a fair option.

How difficult is it to setup direct deposit options?

I'm just curious I know a few sponsors that have this and to me it seems like the best option.

spacedog 01-08-2007 04:29 PM

For those who replied that they prefer checks due to accounting, well, I suppose that you did not know that epass offers you monthly statements.


No.. I guess your accountant couldn't work with that.. :1orglaugh

Personally, I'd rather have 12 statements than a friggen shoebox full of check stubs

If you were sending me traffic I highly doubt you'd have any fee issues :)

Direct deposit is a far better option and we're working on it. We used to offer it when WTS was set up to do it but they stopped almost as soon as we got set up :(

Soon though.

Thats great.

I only wish that more sponsors were working on it. :)
