or pay way too much for just a fucking wire transfer, which is free or for an extremely low fee throughout Europe. US is old fashioned, and epass was the perfect solution.

Same prob here in Australia, although cheques are also expensive to cash.

epass was good for aggregating the odds and ends sponsors.

I think epass will be back in the game soon.

$15 for a wire transfer to my bank from the client, that's too much? you need a new business plan if $15 is kicking your ass

To answer Bradley... I have 200 sponsors I push that send me checks in amounts of $25'ish to $180'ish on a regular basis... They are running on shit backend software they coded themselves. So yes, those fees would eat up those payouts... I guess I could set them to pay me out at $500 but then that is still going to be $3000 in $15 fees once they each pay me out. On epassport it worked out to $400 or less since many didn't even charge me to pay me out...

Or about... $100 avg. x 200 sponsors = $3000/$20,000 = 15% of my money... Why invest in the stock market if I already lost the money in fees getting paid?

plus the wires seem to get fucked up as the bank wire information needed is different from country to country. it is ok for my big sposnors, for the hundreds of others not so much.
