Just A Rant
 


I got two signups to a site, one yesterday and one today and the cheap fuckers used an online check, which only pays me $15.00 each. Cheap bastards, get a credit card! |2up

Hey I know what you mean, but dont bitch, not even all sponsors will pay you for checks. I know I used to get check sign ups all the time, but rarely see them anymore.

Greenguy 2007-01-31 03:15 PM

I wish I was at the point where I could complain about making sales |couch|









:D

Lemmy 2007-01-31 03:23 PM

Got PayPal? I'll take those lousy $30 off your hands as a favor (and any other $15 sales your sponsor burdens you with).

LowryBigwood 2007-01-31 03:59 PM

I'll take it off your hands as well. :D

But, I understand where you're coming from, I had a couple pay me like 10 bucks each for check signup. I figure it all adds up tho. ;)

Not complaining about making sales, just the cheap, tight-wad, no credit, check writing ass holes and they way the buy porn...|jester|

I still can't believe people pay for porn. |crazy| There's so much good free porn to be found. I guess most are internet newbs that haven't figured out where the free stuff is, but that's OK as long as someone is buying :D

Licker, I know you're ranting and (hopefully) at least half joking, but I wouldn't think of my surfers as cheap assholes. I think of them as the beautiful people who enable me to work from home so I don't have to commute 30 miles to my old job working for a real cheap asshole.

It's a karma thing, you are what you eat etc. etc. (or something like that). :D

Why do you get less for a check than a CC transaction? I've never really noticed.

Chop Smith 2007-01-31 04:50 PM

I am sure there are one or two surfers with bad credit. Maybe both of them liked your site.

stuveltje 2007-01-31 04:59 PM

i never complain about sales, i have no reason for that, its more i feel sometimes pitty for some sponsors when they have to pay me 35 bucks for a what...1.95 or 3.95 sale and the sale wont end in a full membership after 3 days...but i got my money:D

Tongue-in-cheek rant but credit card payments would have meant $70.00 |angry| instead of $30.00...but no, I will not return the money. At least it will buy me a carton of coffin nails, or fags to our English friends :D

I dunno |huh Just what the sponsor pays out for an online check transaction. Costs them more? I don't know how |confused|

That is the one thing that keeps me going when sales are down. :D

Linkster 2007-01-31 06:29 PM

I know that when I used to make a lot of check/ach sales with one program the reason they gave me for the lesser payout was the amount of cancels - although they also deducted the cancels from my payout - needless to say they are no longer a sponsor I use :)

It's the lack of sales that'll get me cranky |angry|

The reason for check sales paying less is there's no chance of a rebill...which is where the sponsor hopes to make up the difference (plus), between what the surfer paid and what you got paid. At least that's how it was explained to me in a land long ago and far away.

You see, now that's a good and sensible answer. That makes sense to me. All these years later and I'm still learning that there's a lot more to learn.

Well duuuh, that's so obvious I overlooked it. |banghead|

Linkster 2007-02-01 08:57 AM

Actually - most check/ach sales could be set up to rebill - the same way fitness clubs etc do it - and some sponsors did do it(at least one that I was dealing with above LOL) - but the rate of cancels was way too high

MrYum 2007-02-01 11:30 AM

Hey now! I came up with a sensible answer to something :D
