    Pornstarbucks no longer support epassporte!!!

    I just go this mail:
    Hello,


    We are sorry to inform you that effective immediately, PSB will no longer be using ePassporte for Affiliate payments. This has come after other similar Payment services have had US account holder?s funds seized by the US government. Recently Neteller (which works identically to ePassporte) had all US account holders accounts frozen. The money in these accounts is inaccessible indefinitely. We feel the risk is high that ePassporte will incur similar issues. Therefore, we have made this decision to protect our valuable affiliates as well as ourselves.



    Please change your payment type to Check or wire transfer (over $1000).



    Please note that this decision is based solely on our OPINION of current online payment conditions and in no way should be taken as a negative representation of ePassporte.

    Please let us know if you have any questions.

    Thank you for your understanding,

    PSB Accounting

          Intresting,in latest time a lot of webmasters earn money on my advices.Looks like i become gold chicken hehe.

          In any case i posted this beacuse this is second sponsor which did this,first one was dukedollars so this means sonner or later all USA sponsors will pull out epassporte(except maybe AFF they dont give a damn about laws one way or another)

                  LionDollars is 100% European based and processed.

                  EPassporte payments are assured.

                            Seriously, if you are US based its only a matter of time. Banks are told to watch all wires to epass. If e pass would allow different methods to front load other than strictly bank wire, this wouldnt be an issue.

                              I am based in Australia.

                              LionDollars as ownership and corporate base and hosting and processing is in Europe.

                              European banks are not having the growing issues as American banks in moving money to EPassporte.

                              More and more American banks will pull the pin on transferring to EPassporte, taking more and more US based programs ability to use EPassporte as a payment method with it.

                                They can just as well cancel their bank account and keep all their money in a sock under their matrasses. Payment by check will become impossible soon.
                                This will come after they find out that simmilar banks to their bank have account holder’s funds frozen. Recently bofa (which works identically to their bank) had an adult webmasters' account frozen. The money in this account is inaccessible indefinitely. They'll find the risk is high that their bank will incur similar issues. Therefore, they will make this decision to protect their valuable affiliates as well as themselves.

                                      wow, when You begin pay in cash :D :D ?

                                      netteler what I know was manage payment from casinos thats why they are propably froze US acc.

                                      and what I know epass. dont support such payment, anyway if PSB feel that something is not ok with epass, should warn affiliates that they can take payment via epass on own risk but not disable this option,

                                      I think they lose many webmaster, especial overseas ;)

                                        Epass is a relatively high profile transactor for the gaming industry and has been for some time now.

                                            why don't you guys just make an offshore account, send money to that and from there to epassporte?

                                                Homeland security makes that an issue. Not as easy as people think.

                                                                                    Epassporte remains as a transactor for gaming sites and most likely processes more gaming transactions than anything in the adult entertainment biz.

                                                                                    Even more precarious is the scenario where motivators/owners of ePass are US citizens, tho they may be wrapped up with nominees/corps, they are sitting ducks and most probably contravening US domestic law.

                                                                                    There has been either simple intelligence gathering or operational briefing ongoing for several months now over money-movements re facilitators/transactors for the gaming industry - this may result in action or fade off into oblivion - who knows?

                                                                                              I would be totally annoying to go to the bank each week and cash in checks for $23 and $56. espcially when a form needs to be filled out. epassporte is nice and easy/.

                                                                                                Loosing some affiliates or getting kicked out of your bank. Do the math. Plus Any good affiliate who is loyal to the program will work with the program to find alternatives.
                                                                                                Sure it sucks for all of us, but when you have your bank vp calling you and asking you over and over about all these epassporte transactions, you realize pretty quickly that this issue is bigger than a few affiliates not being able to have their prefered method of payment honored.
