    The ink for the signature is so pricy!

    Btw. CCBill charges less than 1$!

              Well I did get this email, I also remember someone else charging the same because I just recently changed to checks.

                Yes, $7.00 is too much but I had one sponsor charge me $12.00. Needless to say, I dropped that sponsor.

                  Looks like it might be a way to try to gently force you to use the electronic pay providers? Some have "kickback" programs for referring customers.

                  It makes you wonder what's next. Perhaps they will take their bandwidth costs and divide it evenly among the number of affiliates in the program and charge them each their fair share per month? Thankfully affiliates still have plenty of choices and don't have to do business with such programs.

                    No one should charge you a dime to cut a check period.

                    You are doing them a great service. They should kiss your ass.

                            We don't charge for checks, wires, or Paxum payments because seems greedy to charge affiliates to get their money.

                              It's kind of ironic that direct deposit is listed as costing more money than a paper check.

                              When direct deposit was introduced all those years ago, the entire selling point of it was that it SAVED MONEY for the company and bank by not needing any paper.

                                $7 seems kind of too high.

                                            $2 seems reasonable.....$3 max, any more then that is just skimming.

                                                How does anyone justify $7 for a check. $1 I can understand but not $7.

                                                    If you're only charging $1-$3 then you could as a program just as well leave it and not charge.

                                                    What's more important, cutting the checks @ $2 and giving the affiliate the feeling "ok, they don't charge much but they did charge me" or charging nothing and giving the affiliate the feeling "swell program, going to promote it more, at least they do not charge me for cutting checks"

                                                    sometimes the little things in life have a huge consequence

                                                          It depends. $7.00 isn't just for the check in my opinion because it helps to pay for things such as accountants, accounting services, accounting software, bank fees, affiliate / payee support, lost check recovery, sales and financial reporting software and technical support assoicated with that software, etc.

                                                            I remember Gamma always took a couple bucks off my checks, which at the time was the only sponsor I can remember charging for "check processing". But now it is much more commonplace.

                                                            At SellHealth we never charge a dime for checks sent by regular mail. We also deliver checks by Fedex for free for payments over $1,000, and charge a reasonable $20 for checks below $1,000.

                                                              Caught on the news today a bank charging $2 to check your balance via ATM.. at their own ATM. Another who charges $6 a month if you DONT use your debit card that month. Another charging $8.95 monthly service fee for an account titled "Totally Free Checking".

                                                              These sort of "bill stuffing" is going to get smacked down hopefully. Or be forced to itemize (how much exactly of my check that you charge me to receive the money you owe me is to pay the employee pressing the button? lets see it on the stub)

                                                              Not exactly on-topic, but close enough for jazz.

                                                                                We never charge to re-send a check....

                                                                                Also, we will get ACH payments setup soon and will not charge for this either.

Another who charges $6 a month if you DONT use your debit card that month. Another charging $8.95 monthly service fee for an account titled "Totally Free Checking".

                                                                                  These sort of "bill stuffing" is going to get smacked down hopefully. Or be forced to itemize (how much exactly of my check that you charge me to receive the money you owe me is to pay the employee pressing the button? lets see it on the stub)

                                                                                  Not exactly on-topic, but close enough for jazz.

Changing a sponsor because they charge $5 more to send a check just seems stupid imo. What if the cheaper one makes you wait 2+ days longer to get your check? Or on average converts just 1 less sale per period. Is the fuss over the $5 check fee really worth it?

                                                                                        To me it is all ridiculous.

                                                                                        I seems most revshare/affiliate programs are offering BIG bonuses if you send them 100+ sign ups per month (How many people actually make these?) or $75 PPS specials where you need to generate at minimum $250+ in sales first before they will send you anything plus you need to send them an email notifying them you participated in the special $75 PPS within a specified time frame and finally you have to wait to see if any sales generated don't look fraudulent to them.

                                                                                        On top of all that they nickel and dime their affiliates to have a check sent to them for $0.44 cents. $1 at most if overseas.

                                                                                        I'm sorry but I'm in the same business as all of you and it appears to me that that a lot of the revshare/affiliate programs out there are just as deceiving as some websites are to their consumers in regards to billing practices

                                                                                        Join today for $1.95 and get free access to 100 other sites.. In small "quotes".. $49.95 will be billed to your account if you don't cancel within 30 seconds. (Exaggeration)

                                                                                        Same thing is going on with $7 charges for revshare/affiliate checks and the misleading advertising on the consumer end.. It is all wrong in my opinion..

                                                                                                Go with what sponsor makes the most profit from your traffic. Changing a sponsor because they charge $5 more to send a check just seems stupid imo. What if the cheaper one makes you wait 2+ days longer to get your check? Or on average converts just 1 less sale per period. Is the fuss over the $5 check fee really worth it?
                                                                                                Well most of sponsors dont charge anything for checks anyway.Usually high fee are applied from non usa sponsors.
