Dear StormPay Member,
This notice contains information concerning the following subjects.

New Fee Structure (Effective May 1, 2004)
StormPay Online Auctions (Coming this week)

Please read this entire newsletter as it contains important information concerning your StormPay account.

New Fee Structure:

On May 1, 2004, StormPay's fee structure will Change. Our new fee structure will allow purchasers to pay face value of the price set on the vendors website rather than charging a 9.9% premium as we have done in the past. On May 1, 2004, Purchasers who use the StormPay system will no longer pay a fee to deposit funds into their StormPay account.

What does this mean to our valued vendors? We believe the new fee structure will mean increased sales and decreased chargebacks. Most chargebacks are a result of the purchaser not fully understanding the 9.9% added fee to their transaction.

With our new fee structure, customers pay exactly the price that appears on the website/auction where the purchase is made, resulting in less confusion and less chargebacks to our vendors.

StormPay Inc. will also zero the fees for withdrawals (check and direct deposit), as well as reduce the fees for Internation wire withdrawal to only $15 to match U.S. wire withdrawal fees.

Vendors- Please take the next two weeks to adjust your "Buy Buttons" prices to cover the new fee structure. We understand the inconvenience of having to adjust your pricing, but are sure you will reap the benefit of the new fee structure in a very short time.

So? They don't accept adult transactions.

when i joined they said they accepted all types of transactions

Well yea, as long as you're not processing any adult transactions........

Thank me later.

They "Updated" their policy/terms of useage several monthes ago just as Paypal did. Then they launched "BeaverPay" for adult LMAO as if anyone would use that......then changed it's name to "AllResell"

I wouldn't recommend using any of their services

:2 cents:

Ditto. I wouldn't either.

I think StormPay just cancelled adult subscriptions. We still offer them as one of the payment methods in our adult content store.

However, I agree with other posts here and I do not like them myself so much. Epassporte and Moneybookers are more efficient

Right from Stormpay's TOS:

"12.) You may not use StormPay to send or receive payments for any "adult" or "sexually oriented" materials or services."

You be the judge.

I'd recommend Epassporte or MoneyBookers. Stay away from Paypal for adult as well.
