Trike Patrol Paysite and Zombaio
 

Well, it's been about 2 weeks since Trike Patrol switched from CCbill to Zombaio. So far we seem to be processing the same amount of joins and getting the same amount of rejected joins. Zombaio payouts are sent out on time, the only thing is that I didn't think it would be an international wire. So, now I'm waiting for additional processing time and getting hit with a $15 incoming wire fee into my U.S. bank account. So if we chose to get paid out daily that would be $180 in processing fees from Zombaio and my bank in a 6-day week.

Zombaio has a great webmaster interface/stats, quick enough support, and I hope they'll be able to pay directly to a credit card soon. But due to affiliiate demand we're thinking of just using them for type in traffic (%55 of our traffic). Right now for our VD Bucks NATS cascade we're looking into installing a phone biller, maybe LocalBilling, and an established CC biller to handle our affiliate joins.

What do you porn gurus think?

does she have a pulse..and a pussy ?

if so..

id hit it

I think you spent a lot of money and will probably be wishing you stuck with just ccbill soon.

Good luck though. I like what you guys are doing.

Thanks Les, but we actually didn't spend too much. We're about to spend a whole lot on producing some new content though. I hope you guys will like promoting the new stuff coming out.

BTW, just rec'vd this a couple minutes ago from Zombaio.

We herby inform you about the following new clause, effective immediately.

§21) Cascading Terms
The given transaction fee requires Zombaio to have a good rate of successful transactions. If the merchant is using several credit card processors in lead (the first processors declines is sent to the second, and so on) (aka. billing cascade) Zombaio requires being the first processor in your cascade to be able to maintain your given transaction fee.

Failure to comply with this term will lead to a processing fee at 9% without notice. The fee will be restored once Zombaio is first in the cascade again. Several failures may lead to account termination.

Join form set-ups where the cardholder/member can choose which processor to use is not affected by this clause.

Word. We looked into all this and found it probably wasn't worth the trouble.

Still, 9% isn't bad.

It seems to me, the greatest advantages of having such a system would be:

1) Not putting all your billing eggs into one basket, and can change them on the fly.

2) You can now pay via epass, which will bring you a lot of new webmasters.

Very possible it's worth the expense.

I feel it can work out well if you are using your own merchant accounts, especially if you have multiple mids and can rotate the risk around.

If you are relying solely on extra margin from Zombaio's rates I don't know. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Zombaio has rates more in tune with everyone else within 6 months or so.

I'm sorry, you make a thread stating you were with one of the most trusted adult payment processors this industry has ever seen. That you have now switched to a new "up and comer" which is costing you XX times more money.

...... and you want to know what "gurus" would think?


:2 cents::2 cents:

I mean. How does one even begin to reply to something like that? I'm just literally dumbfounded. I'm trying to think of a good reply, but nothing comes to mind. I would need to have a discussion with a leaf to unearth more intelligence than I could from this thread.

Actually, I was just pointing out that taking daily payouts would cost xx times more money than we had perceived. Obviously by not taking daily payouts we'll make more money off Zombaio than CCbill, while processing the same amount of joins.

Thanks for just fluffing yourself while not actually adding any intelligence to this thread.

Thats funny:1orglaugh

But yes, once we get rolling, we will probably switch payouts from daily to weekly, or maybe even bi-monthly to save on those transaction costs.

Other than that, Zambaio is working just fine, thank you:winkwink:
