why do some sponsors offer ONLY check payments? - GoFuckYourself.com

polish_aristocrat · 12-18-2006, 03:10 PM

seriously, since a few years wire transfers are a standard and since about 2 years, also Epassporte payments are more than common....
and yet still some sponsors offer only check payments ( f.e. GGWCash )

I can't understand their reasoning, I bet they would get significantly more webmasters promoting them if they offered alternate payment methods

Cheer up!

Psycho_x · 12-18-2006, 03:13 PM

I have had to pass up some very nice sponsors do to the fact of them only doing Epass payouts.

SkeetSkeet · 12-18-2006, 08:05 PM

epass, wire, and check is the norm minimum these days

Waveu6410 · 12-18-2006, 08:08 PM

I prefer checks.

I don't like anyone to have my bank info besides me.

Jace · 12-18-2006, 08:08 PM

if you don't pay me in check I won't promote you

not as many people use wire and epassporte as you might think

Keeping track of checks is a pain enough as is. I don't want to add wires and ePass to that.

aico · 12-18-2006, 08:44 PM

I prefer checks

DaddyHalbucks · 12-18-2006, 08:50 PM

I prefer checks too.

There are a few programs I don't promote.. because they only offer wires.

amandaspost · 12-18-2006, 08:51 PM

Yeah, and to make things worse, some sponsors send checks without stubs. Man, that is such a huge pet peeve of mine.

selena · 12-18-2006, 09:07 PM

I like to be paid by checks. It makes a nice handy paper trail.

Beside the sponsors who do not have the time/resources to add other payout options, then I guess the big ones really like the extra credit time checks give them. From mailing the check to the money is actual drawn from their accounts can take weeks = better credit, and better cashflow.

Wires are best - you have the mioney sitting in your bank account, and can use them without worry

sicone · 12-18-2006, 09:18 PM

I tried to sign up for one program that did wire or epass only.

I don't have a epass acct and my bank doesn't have a iban number. I couldn't complete my sign up.

their loss

fuzebox · 12-18-2006, 09:52 PM

I wish I could accept checks. I really do.

woj · 12-18-2006, 10:00 PM

it probably cuts down fraud a bit...

cutievids · 12-18-2006, 10:09 PM

gives them more cash flow

jeffrey · 12-18-2006, 10:12 PM

I only do Epass.

US checks take 30 to 60 days to clear my bank. So fuck that.
