Processors don't know more than we - VISA issue - Non US Webmaster - Funny - GoFuckYourself.com

Non US webmasters need to have this according to
the processors support team and remember they all have
the same rules and papers from VISA.

Ibill

No problem, International banking relations so just pay
the fee of 750 and it's ok!

CCbill and Paycom

You need to have a US registered company / Tax ID.
Even though they also have INT banking rel.
Pay the fee and everything should be ok as they understand it
right now.

Websitebilling

I read this in another post. You must have a US company /TAX ID.
You must have an address/office where there is actually working
someone for you in the US. And even more stuff.
They can do this for you for $3000 per month LOL
Then pay the FEE 750 and it's ok.

This is funny.
Even funnier is that I use all 3 of the biggest processors
and I'm not from US. So I figure I stick with Ibill offcourse.
But then again, maybe they are wrong and the other P right.
The I can be shut down by visa. Hmmm.

SO I think I'll go with CCBill and have Ibill as backup.
All I have to do is fill in an online form and fax some dociments,
pay about 3-400 dollars and I'm set with the TAX ID issue.
Is there time ?!

What if Websitebilling is right ?!

Here's a TIP:
European Webmasters:
There are european processors out there.
E-mail your members - tell them to cancel if the joined by
visa and rejoin with your new processor.
Keep the old processor for your affiliates so they get revenue
of sales from mastercard and checks until they have time to
switch program with you!! That is if you don't run your own and
can add them by yourself without they even know about it.

Like me :-)
But I will still get that Tax ID cause I really like my current
processors. But I will also get me an european processor
just in case those American VISA people comes up with
more rules no processors or sponsored merchants can understand !!

Hope it goes well for all of you, it always does if you
work on it !!

Websitebilling told me the following about this issu:

"We have a sister company and a merchant account in the EU, so you will
still be able to process with us. The fees that they describe are
inflated by there own greed. The fee will actually be $500 registration
and $250 each year after that. "

I think that $3000 thing is made up.
