Not for me helping a friend and his girlfriend start up a site and affiliate program. just looking for feed back so I can guide them.

Not to upset anyone since I know a few players in the billing game, I would get my own business account. All these 3rd party billers charge way too much, the start up fees have not changed from what I can tell, they were 15% off the top and 5-7% 6 month rolling reserves, a lot has changed in the world and this business in the past 25 years, these rates don't seem to have budged by much. I have not looked into recently but you can get rates as low as 5% from when I last checked.

CCBill if I had no way to get a merchant account

Getting a merchant account for adult has become harder and more expensive.

Totally agree.

These guys setup our merchant account https://www.emerchantpay.com/. Back then (2009 ish) the entry level was around $10,000 a month but i think its a LOT lower these days

We've been with them every since with CCBill as a backup processor.

Thinking of adding Epoch too as they offer Paypal payments but their rates are something like 17% for paypal !!. Ive noticed other pay sites using Epoch and they simply increase the end user price if they want to pay via paypal which seems like a good idea

Start ups can not afford their own account that is why they jump on to the easy train of a 3rd party billing platform.

[alsporn]

Have you noticed there are no reps from any of he billing companies on the forums anywhere?

[nudelinks]

Ccbill is the only viable option

I used Bill by Verotel before. Percentage was a little higher but there are no other fees. Plus they'll do stitching and you won't have to pay the visa/mc crap fees since you'll be based in Switzerland (??) where visa/mc doesn't have any crap fees. Besides billing for memberships you can also sell individual products both virtual and tangible, if I recall correctly. I used them for 2 or 3 years no problems. The info is here: https://bill.creditcard

CCBill if I had no way to get a merchant account

Best idea so far

[greatpornlinks]

For the fees they charge they should be a shamed of themselves, 20% that is 1/5th of the gross sale on a $20 monthly membership goes to the billing company, that is bull.
