What do you think about mobile SMS pay?
 

Hi,

In Europe (UK, Netherlands and Spain) it is quite hot: Pay for sex with a mobile phone by sending a reversed billed SMS.

It looks perfect for the visitor: no software download, no CC details, just 1 SMS for 1 hour access.....

But, nobody of you use it! Why?

I think more people would use it if a major 3rd party biller started supporting it like CCbill, epoch, ibill, jettis, etc. Most people don't even know it exists at the moment.

Problem with SMS is that it can take 60-90 days
before you get paid. Can you wait this long for your $$

SMS billing would be great for a finnish porn site, as like 95% of people here have cellphones. Unfortunately if one wants SMS billing they have to make contracts with all operators. Which sucks. I've looken into it a lot.. but so far no luck.

assuming it is secure, rock solid, i think its a great idea, especially if great services like paypal are going to be taken away from us

Outpayment by the network operators is solid as a rock, but till now it takes a while before we receive the money. We're working on a solution to cover this period. At short notice we're able to pay revenues at weekly basis..... Could this interesting for you?

of course, but i think id need a huge fucking company to back it, not some d00d off of GFY, u dig? =)

paypal needs to get on this stuff

What's the criteria: a huge company, waiting till they see the light or a tiny company, paying on a weekly basis? There are customers, 90.000.00, who want to pay YOU by mobile phone. Money is money.

No, you don´t have to make direct contracts with operators in Finland..

Have you checked these websites...

Direct connections to operators takes a lot of effort, money and interfacing troubles.

Look at http://www.sa-webpartner.com

It's a SMS payment system created for paysites. Highly customizable, f.e. 1 SMS at 1,50 UK pound for 1 hour access, or 1 day access, monthly subscription 30 x a SMS, etc.. We have SMS connections up-and-running out of the UK, The Netherlands and Spain. NO COST to join, easy installation.

No, I didn't know of those websites. I checked them out, and I must say only one of them seemed good. The others seemed to only work with Sonera and Radiolinja operators.
