Is 1000/500 $ High Risk Annual Fee Worth for Epoch,CCbill and others?
 

Is 1000/500 $ High Risk Annual Fee Worth?

Most of adult paysite owners pay this fee yearly (1000 for USA 500 for EU) and do they sell much more than that?

I think its too high for an adult paysites. Because there are too much freely accessible adult streaming and selling adult paysite memberships are tough in the market.

All of the payment processors requires this fee: Epoch, Segpay, CCBill, Vendo, Verotel, Commercegate etc..

Just big fishes can overcome of 1000 $ mastercard fee area but what about individuals?
If they cant earn more than 1000 $ of a year then they have to lose money by paying 1000/500 $ annual fee.

Verotel and few other gateways are ready to waive off the 1000/500 fee if you show them 100 worth of transactions per month.

if you have the right micro niche strategy - making 1000 per month should be piece of cake.

I can fully recommend CCBill.

Yes, thats right. Verotel is great as a cheap payment processor solution. We are trying to integrate flexpay script on our website in order to use their system.


Maybe you are right about micro niche strategy. However for micro niche sites , the traffic would be goes down and you cant make money by ads much more by micro niche paysites...

If you cannot afford $500, go and play with Lego blocks instead :1orglaugh

Most people can afford but what if the website couldnt be sell more than 500/1000 $ on a year? You will lose your money into high risk annual fee...

I had a hard time accepting the fee but understand it's the cost of doing business. It sucks but from my interactions with people, CCBILL and paying what I have to do is the right thing to do if you want to do it right.
