Thank you for sending me my $103 check and deducting a $43 fee! merry xmas to me.

It's all in the FAQ:

Which payment method can I use to cash out my commission?

Our Casino and Bingo affiliates can receive their earnings via Neteller, EcoCard, Bank Wire (must exceed $1,000 and there is a $60 fee involved which will not be deducted) and we recently integrated Paper Check (the minimum amount is $100, maximum $2500, plus a $40 sending fee). For every returned check due to wrong info, affiliates will pay $60 plenty fee.

Don't blame the program if you haven't looked into their fees.

No hard feelings..

Please note:
1. Check is available to affiliates from the USA only.
2. The minimum amount is $100.
3. There is a $40 sending fee we pay to the third party processor mainly for the special currier (DHL, TNT or similar).
4. Please make sure you provided the right address on your profile to avoid returning checks .

So Sorry! I Understand paying fees, but $40 is alot on a $100 payment.

[hakank]

Maybe they needed to borrow a few bucks to the stamp?

I understand your frustrations, but 3 bucks? 3? It could have been way worse.

It's $60 on a "free service" like Neteller.. So I DO understand you.

Affiliate friendly programs DO NOT charge fees IMO)

LiveFree247,

Revenue Giants do not charge fee from affiliates for anything or any services, I'm not aware of any program that does that in fact, the papercheck fee is the fee charged by the payment provider in order for them to deliver the check to your home.

Also, your earnings were $100.48 as you can see on your account clearly and not $103 as you wrote here, therefore getting a check of $60.48 is correct. and the payment provider charged you only $40 as it should and as stated in our T&C and on your account once you click check request.

lastly, I dont think your sarcastic post was appropriate, when we gave you only best service.

Thank you hakank for your useful replies, I appreciate it.

Regards, Malci

Thank you for this statement.

It will be worse if the check payment option is selected for overseas. Money exchange and bank charge will deduct more from the payment. This tells us how important to select a appropriate payment method. If a program offers more options for selection, it is definitely better for affiliates.

Get real. I can print a check ( Cheque ) for free from my computer and send it to Livefree for 58 cents. Charging affiliates $40 for a check to be mailed is pure evil.

payment provider charged you only $40 as it should and as stated in our T&C and on your account once you click check request.

Then get a different payment provider. I use to get checks from casino coins and they charged me 3 bucks for xpress.

Then I suggest that you get into the business and start under-cutting the competition by offering a service for affiliate programs to use if you're going to pass that price onto programs !!


Except of course, when you sit down to look at all the extra costs that come along with running a payment service that sends funds internationally, and has to deal with the myriad of financial issues around UIGEA and exchange rates then you quickly understand why sending cheques, wires and other components actually DOES cost $10, $20 or more ... once you're doing more than a couple per week.

Given that madness that still seems to surround banking and gambling within the US - despite the recent DOJ statements about the wire act - it's not a business that I'd want to get into given the successful prosecutions regarding "mis-coding" of gambling payments.

Biggest fee that I've seen recently is $93 to send a bankwire - we are discussing that with the program right now - as it appears to be a double-clip by a light fingered agent .... but prices of $40-$50 are commonplace.

Thank you TheGooner, I couldn't have said it better, you sure understand this business. if I could, believe me I rather there would be no transfer fee to any of my affiliates, I rather do like we did back in 2006 paying all via Neteller and get it done with.

Finding good third party provider is not easy and once you find someone you have no reassurance the money is safe, so we found a company that charges $40, yet all checks arrive on time with a special delivery and to the right destination and affiliates info are at all time remain secured. Theses days we don't take those benefits lightly.
