    Looks like FirstChoicePay is having serious issues

    This was just sent to all Crak Affiliates:

    Firstchoice Pay recently notified us about a problem they’re experiencing in regards to the loading of funds. In order to protect your funds & commissions, we’ve decided to temporarily deactivate Firstchoice Pay as a payment method at CrakRevenue.

    Is your payment method set to Firstchoice Pay?

    If so, we invite you to switch to another payment method as soon as possible. In the meantime, there are other payment methods to choose from: Paxum, Check and Wire.

    What does this mean for CR affs receiving money via Firstchoice Pay:

    No CrakRevenue commissions will be paid via Firstchoice Pay on March 15, 2018 (payday).

    We repeat — if you have Firstchoice Pay set as a payment option, you will not receive a payment from us March 15, 2018.

    This precaution is taken to protect your revenues from any additional unnecessary risk.

    Another communication will be sent if Firstchoice Pay later confirms that their services are back to normal.


    We’re sorry for any inconvenience this might cause.

    -The CrakRevenue Team

    +1 similar problems here.

    These companies are all having problems, they seem to change their banks more often than their underwear.

    Paxum, Firstchoicepay etc, they are running businesses that are at odds with the new international banking standards. Governments just dont like untraceable funds.

      Agree, and just being a client also put you at risk of getting kicked out from your own bank. Wiring large amount of money is getting more and more difficult, banks are going crazy and they don't care if its legal or not, all about a risk factor for them. It was so much easier to write/receive checks. I didn't care dealing with a lost one in the mail once every 2 years. At least my bank wouldn't call me all the time asking what is that money for.

                    We did a load to FirstChoicePay about a week ago, and it went through with no issues.

                    And, we haven't been informed by FCP of any load issues. Can someone from CrakRevenue reach out to me please? I'm curious why we haven't been informed. Any other affiliate programs been informed of this?

                          I'd be interested to know whether "loading funds" refers to:

                          - An affiliate program wiring funds to FCP to prepare for payouts

                          or

                          - An affiliate trying to transfer balance to their ATM card

                            Hi Ravo,

                            We began sending this message today. Sorry if you haven't received it yet! We have a lot of affiliates (xx,xxx) and I believe the notification is still being sent by the hour. Everyone should receive it before today's end.

                            Please let me know if there's anything else I can do for you Ravo!

                              I would withdrawal all funds if I were you guys.

                              I'm glad some programs have Paxum and Paypal as a payment options.

                                I think Ravo meant he hadn't heard anything from FCP. I'm assuming he has his affiliate program hat on and wanted to speak with a peer.

                                Can you elaborate on the problems?

                                      Yeah this is serious. I got my regular FCP payment yesterday though from another network. They must had pre loaded it before this happened.

                                          FCP have called in veteran financial whizz kid Chris Malick to handle the crisis - He has assured all concerned that the 'money is in motion'...

                                          Mr Malick also announced that the 'long awaited' sequel to his 'hit movie' will hit the screens soon - "Middle Men II, We Fucked Them Again" - is due for release when the check clears - He also mentions that he is welcoming investors.....

                                                - An affiliate program wiring funds to FCP to prepare for payouts

                                                or

                                                - An affiliate trying to transfer balance to their ATM card

                                                Can you elaborate on the problems?


                                                There was an issue loading funds from checking account to ATM cards about a week ago but Paxum got it resolved the same day so I guess FCP too as Paxum uses Choice Bank and Choice bank = FCP. As someone pointed out Crak is maybe just slow.

                                                        If I'm not wrong FCP is operated by Choice Bank, Paxum uses Choice Bank to issue and handle the cards.

                                                                Firstchoice Pay recently notified us about a problem they’re experiencing in regards to the loading of funds.
                                                                I'm not sure if they're referring to loading problems on the payee end (I don't use a payoneer/fc card but haven't heard of any of my contractors who do use them having issues)

                                                                If they're referring to loading of funds on the payer end (in this case crak) I haven't experienced anything like that at all. My last wire I sent on Wednesday was credited to my account the next day (yesterday/Thurdsay)

                                                                if it's a payer issue with wires being credited, I'm wondering if perhaps the issue may be that crak is sending wires of over 10k? I send mid to high xxxx regularly and have never had an issue. I would never send over 10k though, that's just asking for difficulties. even with contractors whom I pay directly via wire, if the amount is over 9.5k I send two wires just to be safe.

                                                                this is just my anecdotal experience but for me payoneer/fc is working perfectly and is crediting my wires faster these days than when I first started with them.

                                                                although I do prefer methods wherein I ca pay contractors using methods that take the funds directly from my bank account, I like the payoneer/fc service and it's def been an asset to my business. Hope it stays that way.

                                                                  And also, for some reason choice bank is only bank in world which can issue debit cards on international level, while you can find alternative for US and EU, nobody else can do for whole world. Kind like in adult processing where only verotel can proccess non eu/us clients. So if choice bank goes bananas, everyone goes bananas.

                                                                  Originally posted by JesseQuinn

                                                                    Can you elaborate on the problems?

                                                                    Now, I'm guessing that Crak is referring to the issue that both Paxum and FCP had with affiliate cards on March 1st. I can't find any indication of an issue with loading funds INTO FCP in order to make affiliate payments.
