Min Threshold Aff Payments (Why) - Aff Manager?

[Aussie-Dave]

Hi All,

I thought it best to commence another thread on this, as I didn't want to derail this one: https:// www. affiliateguarddog. com/forums/minimum-payment-question-t3167.html#post20019

Reiterating not that this usually affects me but I can remember when I started out. In the first 6 - 12 months every little bit helps to keep your head above water.

I can understand a min payment must be meet before sending a bank wire, a QT payment or cutting check even...But a web wallet ???

My question is...why do some affiliate programs enforce a minimum payment threshold to web wallets?

IMHO if a min for a web wallet must be set then $50 is more than reasonable. After all it is the affiliates money, hey!


Cheers

Hopefully, we can get some of the programs to put their side of things on this one. I think all programs should pay out to Neteller and Moneybookers with a minimum $25.

I'd like to know why Bonne Chance, owners of MANY MANY white label casinos will not send me ONE payment so that I can easily clear their

2500$ wire minimum (if they have wire avail. anymore)
1500$ check minimum (completely unreasonable)

In addition, these min. payments could easily be met if RIVAL or B.C. would simply cooperate (AS PARTNERS SHOULD!!!) to get me paid as they own all the W.L. casinos - this is not rocket science! I feel shit on. Thanks RIVAL / B.C. owners for holding my money hostage I want a solution - the month is ending, and I want to get paid! I WANT A SINGLE CONTACT FOR ALL WHITE LABEL CASINOS SO I CAN DEAL WITH THIS LIKE A BUSINESS PERSON INSTEAD OF HOUNDING EACH WHITE LABEL CASINO FOR MY MONEY!!! THIS IS BULLSHIT!

---------------
NO - QuickTender will not work, they will not wire to a corporate account, it has to have my name on it - that is BS in a corporate setting!
---------------
NO - I don't want another e-wallat (nor is there one I know of that will accept me) I've had WAY TOO MUCH MONEY stolen from me or withheld!
---------------
I have only JUST NOW been paid for my earnings from Feb-August! because of E-wallat B.S. from QuickTender
---------------
I had thousands taken by Neteller in 2006 and had to wait a year to get that, too!
---------------

I want a check or a wire. EVERYONE ELSE IS DOING IT - So please, don't tell me its impossible!

Most merchants have to pay NT/MB/etc a fee for payouts, which is generally a %, but also has a minimum. So payments of $1 payments aren't reasonable. This is not to count the soft dollar cost of processing payouts (accounting and fraud prevention salaries)

We have a $50 Minimum for web wallets and person-to-person affiliate payouts. We cover the fees. Sometimes, upon request, we may send out payouts below $50, but that is done on a case by case basis, otherwise, we'd get killed with fees.

I can't reveal exactly what agreements we have, but look up things on google like "neteller merchant payment fees" and you will see what I'm talking about.

I think a $50 min is a fair deal.

What I'm edging at is aff programs that set a $200 min on web wallets. That's clearly absurd.

For instance C-Planet have a $200 min. Not sure what happens if you have a winner and you didn't meet the previous months payment threshold, but I think stuff like that is a concern to new affiliates. I mean seriously some new affs won't make $200 in the 1'st six months least of all from one program.

IMHO it's just not a fair deal have such a high payment threshold for web wallets.
