Theo · 10-31-2003, 10:53 AM

hyatla · 10-31-2003, 10:54 AM

Really?

They are killing themselves if they do so.

KRL · 10-31-2003, 10:58 AM

That rumor has been around for many years, but so far they haven't.

We'd survive regardless.

socalcash · 10-31-2003, 10:59 AM

Close this fucking thread.

No offense...

Why dont we discuss how we are going to clean our business up and work with Visa & MC instead

If only.
We aren't even a ripple in the number of transactions that Visa & MC process every day. They could drop us tomorrow and not even BLINK. Adult is 1%-3% of their business, small potatoes compared to their mainstream transactions.

I have to tell you, I think thats what they want us to believe. We are a 10 billion dollar industry and I would bet 85% is done on cc. If we were so small ,they would of dropped us a long time ago instead of the annoyance of dealing with us.

GFED · 11-01-2003, 05:38 PM

never had a problem with checks and money order...

100% correct. Not only are we small potatoes as far as amounts billed, we are their highest drain on customer service resources.

Why do you think they're requiring lower chargeback percentages, fees paid, tighter restrictions, etc? No, I don't think they'll stop processing adult internet, but they'll make sure they only process the cream of the crop.

May I take this time to mention CHECKS?

If you have any questions, please email me. If I don't know the answer, I'll find it for you. There's a reason all the large programs take checks.

Nima · 11-01-2003, 05:56 PM

don't bring down so much negative thought over here. if you think itwill happen then it will... I highly doubt it ever will and if it does there will be a replacement for it in time

Forbes magazine estimates 1.5 billion in internet porn sales and memberships. It's the INTERNET sales Visa/MC are unhappy with and unfortunately, that's where most of us earn our $$$$.

the Shemp · 11-01-2003, 06:03 PM

I'll have to back to routing our cc sales through my buddys chinese restaurant merchant account. so if any of you guys get billed from Long Dongs Noodlerama, its really me... thank you.

...then again, 1-3% of billions and billions of dollars isn't really chump change. Killing off that much business is never a good thing, and while I can foresee them making CHANGES to online porn billing...I dont really think they'd drop the whole thing entirely. But anyway, just my

...what do I know? hehe

Don't forget that Visa and Mastercard also make money on interest they charge the card holders from our transactions. Not every CC holder pays their card in full every month.

Don't take it personally. It's all about the post count.

The truth be told someone in the business needs to be coming up with an alternative, because Visa may not always be where you want to be. Don?t forget they are being offered a juicy nugget by lawmakers if they get out of the porn business Credit Card debt would no longer be dischargeable in bankruptcy.

There is a new company called PayWide that will be offering alternative billing when they open this January
