Looks like WEGCASH stiffed us...
 

Four Paychecks were still owed when they "closed shop"

So far, two should have been here already. Not a trace.

They had always paid out like clockwork, so I assumed they would honor the stats, and kept my links up til the last day.

Turns out they must have decided to not send out any checks after the last day 5/21..

So in total, it will be 4 pay periods they didnt bother to pay out on.

Anybody receive a check after the 5/17 one?

Sad, but no one is going to get paid. If they are going under, they are going to do whatever they can to save every last dollar possible. At the end of the day they don't give two shits about you because they don't need you anymore.

Sorry, but count that money as gone :2 cents:

Yup- seems so.

Lesson is... when a program announces its closing, get those links switched out yesterday..

Theyve already redirected their webmasters forum to a frikkin tube site..

ouch... gl broski

DDOS wegcash.com domain. fire lazors?

Bingo! :thumbsup

fucking shitty way to go out especially when I think back to the 'pink4free' era lol

who runs wegcash now anyways ? same crew ?

I loved the WEG ads featuring Gabe as the Tube/Michelin Man. Also, the flash ad of Gabe breaking a sweat being chased.

a broke company unable to pay? who could have seen that coming?

WEG is top-notch, straight-up people. They'll do right by you.

this thread needs an affiliate rep clown to reassure the masses.

I wouldn't count on getting paid :2 cents:

weg was j4f not pink4free

WEGCASH closed shop? That sucks.

mikeyddddd, nice avatar.

That sucks :/...

they don't need one anymore :mad:

If they don't plan on using affiliates again, I doubt anyone will get paid.

seems so but hoping

There will be more. Porn is consolidating. The majors have finally shot themselves in the foot. They can't sustain the volume so they cut and run. Porn is going to get lean and mean again. The big players are eating their young. If you live by affiliate sales, you might want to be re-evaluating your portfolio.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

As I said before, glad I decided not to promote them a few months ago when their affiliate rep decided to be a complete and utter douche.

I remember seeing their join4free program several years back and bought signup4free domain. Never did anything with it though, anyone want it ?

WEG and a couple others who shut down most recently were a victim of new visa regs with cross sales.

So much for honesty, integrity, and loyalty. I am sure some of their affiliates have been promoting them for years and this is the way they thank them? a big fuck you, we are keeping your last couple checks because we don't need you anymore?

Karma is all I have to say. Those people who made that decision will not only fail here with WEG, but they will fail in life with business practices and a mentality like that.

Fuck them. If any of the principles of the company pop back up with other programs or trying to work with other companies they should be black listed. There is no reason they shouldn't pay out for the money they collected already.

Well hopefully, if they do indeed stiff everyone, word will get out about any and all future projects they start and noone will touch it.

Really, at this point- they might as well go back to school and start planning for another career..

DDOS wegcash.com

They gave us like 4 days notice...and payouts have a 3 week lag

Considering what these guys were doing, this is not a surprise. You play with the snake, you're going to get bitten.

redtube.eu and maxporn are their sites.

There's tons of money in Porn

my accounts receivable grew up to about 5k with non paying design customers, and some of them used my services for years. Motherfucking jungle times.

Still no checks.

Just about past due for weekly check #3..

If anybody gets a check, please post here :)

Glad someone thinks so

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

They won't pay for sure ...

weg is broke. if you believe that you are crazy.
hope everybody gets paid what they were owed through the end of last month.

payment not received here as well... i am seriously considering buying content and selling porn myself instead of relying on networks.

Or opening a tube site. Redirect the traffic to free porn, monetize with dating ads and other shit. Seems to be working for other people.

Which sites did they run?

Its such a pain in the ass to run and I don't see how you can make a decent return selling to freeloaders

pay us wegcash, it's our money!

If they're not paying, they're not paying. Little we can do about it now. IMHO, the only thing we can do is use this as a valuable lesson. We all know which programs were set up pretty much EXACTLY like WEGcash in their business habits. WEG was simply one of the first. The rest will fall shortly. So, instead of complaining about them not paying, pull the links to the companies that we're set up the exact same way as WEG so you can avoid that burn in the next couple of months.

I wouldnt use the word victim If you're business relied on shady cross sales :helpme

Why doesn't anyone ever lay a beating on these scamming fucks when they see them at shows and what-not?

Fuck you Michelin man. The most interesting thief in the world.

Why don't some of you pursue the money owed in court? Small Claims maybe?

Is there any LAW to protect us, you earn money and they don't pay, wtf is that, a biz, or i will work until you fuck me?

That others "do it" doesn't mean that it "works for them"

:winkwink:

Btw. anybody noticed tubes running out of advertisers?

I checked something recently and they were trying to give ma major pop up for an online poker

They know most of the webmasters they are stealing this last bit of money from are only owed 1 period or a few and that it is not financially feasible to sue them. I don't even live in the same country. I'm sure all those last payments adds up to a low of dough for them though.

In reality the only way to force the issue is file a small claim. (usually less than $100 - $200) That way you will find out if they are broke or not. For what it?s worth Weg was great to work with and they paid me quite a bit of money over the years. So I hate how it ended, but I will always remember them fondly. I would be really surprised if they are simply not paying so I suspect they really are broke or lost their processing. Back in the day those free trial sites produced all kinds of sign-ups as customer?s expectations back then were much lower. I quit actively promoting them a few years ago because their product just didn?t keep up with the times, and they no longer converted for me as surfers expected more. When their spin off program (Adult Alchemy) that used the same business model closed shop a few years ago because it wasn?t profitable at $35 per-signup I suspected it was probably just a matter of time before $25 plus bonus would no longer work.

wheres my money
