Sponsor Payouts (epass, wire, etc.)
 

We're finishing up our Nats installation for Butterfly Bucks and we would like to know the preferred payment method for affiliates.

a. Epassporte
b. Wires
c. Checks (USA)
d. Checks (International)
e. I only like CCBill

I do like checks, and epass is ok. Epass just takes a little time to get cash out for the first time.

I only like CCBill! :thumbsup :banana

I like the fastest way - ePassporte. ATM's rule!!!

epass like my sig sponsor:

please add e-gold

but right now .. from the above Epass

Cheques are nice in large quantities, but epass is good if I'm not going to have thousands hanging around

The reason I like CCBill is so I don't have to fill out all my info for every sponsor I signup with. Some sponsors expect you to give out personal info accross a unecrypted connection too.

Epassporte over here too.

I like wire transfers into a foreign account.

epass or ccbill

epass is the only one i use.

for my big sponsors i prefer free wires.

Epassporte... and don't forget THIS

checks :thumbsup

i would prefer wires but never get wires because of the high fees, so i normally go with epass payouts

Do bi-weekly or monthly payouts to reduce your wire fees.

well, for ccbill i do a monthly wire

if sponsor is on nats can i do the same?

epass is the way to go as well as ccbill, always on time (-:

Epass is the best...

wire of course

Epassporte.

Epass owns.

I'll go with ePass anytime.

i love an old fashioned check

epassporte and wire

I prefer wire but epass is okay. :)

Thanks for your responses, I have an additonal poll here

Epassporte with NO Fees.

i like epass....

What about ACH? Why do i gotta pay $50 for a wire when you could just ACH me the money for free (US Banks only)

ePassporte rocks for me! :thumbsup

1. epass - good for smaller ammounts
2. wires - for $5k+
3. cheques (international) - big bank commision for cashing them... :(

Epass and wire

I prefer epass but obviously a program is going to want to offer its affiliates as many options as possible.

I like checks.

Also since you were ccbill, care to address this thread as well? I would like as many switchover programs as possible to answer.

I'm personally a fan of checks... Epass is too much like funny money to me :(

I choose epassporte

Someone mentioned e-gold.com. Any sponsors using that option?

we did epassporte , because most of our affiliates been asking for that ..

so that looks primary for us right at this time ...

Wires are a no-no for me for non-US sponsors. I'm in the US mid-west and local banks are most convenient for most of what I need from a bank. However they have to use correspondent banks to handle wires, which means fees of $40 for wires from outside the US.

EP is obviously going to be popular, since the majority of webmasters are small-time enough for withdrawal via ATM to be practical and appealing. However anyone who trusts large sums of money to a non-regulated institution fronting an offshore (similarly unregulated) bank, needs their heads looking at. If EP are to be believed, they have chosen to work with a bank which has the slowest processing times for outward transfers of any bank I have ever come across, which means that unless you have so little in EP you can spend it all by ATM or card charges, they are ultimately less convenient and more expensive than simply banking a check.

Since once in a very long while a check does go astray, I would prefer an electronic means of transfer. But right now, for me anyway, the options are not very appealing.
