For those who complain about $2 ePass fees by sponsors ...
 

Found this on a sponsor site today. Gee, $2 for ePass or TEN BUCKS for a check????

Pick Payment Type:</td>

Check ($10)</option>
Create ePassporte for me ($5)</option>
ePassporte ($2)</option>
Fethard ($2)</option>
Wire Transfer ($30)</option>

payments should be free... go figure

yea payments should be free to epass and electrical payment sources, otherwise they should cost jsut shipping or labour fees.

wire transfer doesnt cost $30 does it ?

That's bullshit, I don't see ANY reason why a check should cost $10... unless it's some Russian sponsor or something, and they are unable to send checks themselves...

I don't know but epassporte costs more that $2 if you ask me.

The basic idea stays the same for me: $$/click.
I'd rather pay a 100 dollar fee to recieve my money from a sponsor that pays me $20 pps and converts 1/50 than getting a free payment from a program that pays $50 pps and converts 1/400.

I can see charging for wires if under a designated amount (ie: $500), but for checks or epass, no way.

It costs me $.25 to pay our affiliates with epass.

I like this from Sapphic Cash
Check - $250 Minimum ($0)
Check - No Minimum ($3)
Epassporte - $100 Minimum ($0)
Epassporte - No Minimum ($3)
International Wire - $1000 Minimum ($25)
US Wire/ACH - $1000 Minimum ($10)

I think thats a fair way to do it.
Even if I don't meet the $100/$250 minimum I can still get my money for a small fee. If I use the program regularly I'll still get my money for free.
I wish more sponsors would do it like this, I have a lot of sponsors I dropped with $10-90 in my account.

That's why we don't charge a thing for epass/check/wire

At leats they are honest about it at the join process. Sometimes it's hidden, and you find out that

they don't pay 60% but 60%-15% billing so actually only 45% and then you even have to cover the 10USD check fee as well

I can see a 1$ fee for epass, and maybe a 3$ feel for a check. But nothing more. and a wire should be what the bank costs, which is 15$

I have free incomming and out going wires at my bank.
International wires are 15$

i love epassporte payments

Why should there be a fee if a check is over $250? Whether they write me a check for $2 or $2,000, the costs to them are the same.

Well... considering our accounting/fraud control staff is paid about $8,000 a month I can see why some people would charge...

We only charge for wire fees currently...
