Benefits of epass? - GoFuckYourself.com

CYF · 07-28-2009, 09:30 PM

I've been using paypal for years and years, never used epassporte before.

What are the benefits or differences?

Can you dispute payments like with paypal? What happens if someone doesn't deliver after you pay?

I was looking at the site, and it looks like you can get a Visa debit card with the account, which is kind of neat. There seem to be a lot of fees though; fees to add funds, fees for the card, $35 per year for the account. There aren't really a whole lot of fees with paypal, I get fees for receiving money (I have a premiere account) or for sending a masspay.

How do these compare?

Can I get by with only using paypal on GFY or should I get epass as well?

Advantage is epass will not shut down your account when they find out you are using it for adult transactions

not nearly as secure as paypal and you have almost 0 chance of getting any stolen/disputed money back.

only thing that sucks about epass vs paypal is the reverse transaction

A lot of industry folk use EPASS to make payments, or buy shit from you.

Instant cash withdrawal. I love EPASS. $30 per year is better than getting dinged on receiving money, especially when you're constantly getting money shipped in ;).

Good point. I noticed that there's no fees to receive money, and only 30 cents to send money. I've only missed out on one deal on here where the person didn't take paypal, so I think it'd be a good idea to sign up for epass eventually.

When I sign up do I have to load it off a debit card right away, or does anyone know if I can to a paypal/epass swap with someone and avoid the $5 fee to load?

Paypal seems to be accepted tons of places online, is epass the same?

Yep, epass is accepted by lots of places as well. And it works with adult. And tons of affiliate programs pay via epass. Epass is definitely my choice!
