    Hello,

    I just found out new Payment Processor in town. It's called PayBox.me.

    It's planned to launch in 2011 and will offer Person-to-Person transactions, payment processing modules for all popular shopping cart software, currency exchange services, etc.

    What do you have to say about this?

    as .com is the king of the domain names and if the sites are reaching around the world it should be a .com domain.

    Domain needs to be improved. All depends if it could compete with PayPal like AlertPay is doing.

    They can't use .com because they already used that before when they were called paybox.com they disappeared in 2003, do a google search, the company at that time seems to have been almost identical, except that when you signed up you had to attach a debit card to your account.

    Although its not technically a scam, I personally will be staying well clear!!!!

    Well there is still a site http://www1.paybox.com/ doesn't look anything like paybox.me?
    but then again why would it need a com, but they give you now 50$ for signing up and what do you have to loose if they are a scam then only thing you loose is a bit of time, and if not then you could have a few hundred bucks in your account when they go live.....

    Its a kids work.

    If they are serious they will be using EV SSL issue by VeriSign not some cheap SSL provider.

    Another thing is,do they have the proper license to operate the business?

    Think all of you said the same about paypal when it first started up.

    And who said any site doing any type of business has to be a .com?

    Paybox is based in New Zealand it seems.
    From what I see, all bonuses are in a closed system.
    EG: you will not be able to withdraw that money. But only able to spend it on merchants who use paybox.

    Paybox is slowly moving along with their programming, new features, and so forth.

    Now as for a scam?
    I really doubt it.
    Only people I see calling it a scam are people who really have no idea what paybox is about.

    Like I tell people, the worse that can happen if you join?
    They either never get off the ground or they take back all bonuses.
    But one can not tell unless one joins.
    Just to see what happens.
    Because if it comes out a good to great service, etc....those who get in now will be smiling a lot.

    Up to you really.

    I have about 1.2K so far in my account, i cant do anything yet except send to another paybox users.
    They say i can use the funds and even withdraw in january 2012.
    You have to do quick surveys every week.
    The thing is you have to login everyday to reach more funds, and if you do not login for some time (maybe couple of weeks) you should lose it all.
    I dont think ill be able to login for that long till more than a year of now, started to think its a waste of time.

    I stumble on a site at the cause of my research online called paybox.me-which is another payment processing center. Well I researched further to know what paybox.me are really are especially, when they pay you $50 when you sign up. This is the results of my findings so far.
    1. To the best of my knowledge these site has not been launched yet.

    2. Paybox services are similar to that of paypal, but with new and improve processing center that can accept both online and offline transactions-that is like paypal, but with more benefits. The detail to this is still not revealed.

    3. You get $50 for signing up, which is free. With an option of cancelling your account if you like it. As a result of the signing bonus, there is a lot of debate whether paybox is real or not.

    4. You can make extra $20 to $30 dollars a day when you logon to your account by taking survey. Filling 3 surveys will take you 3 minutes and you get paid at least $20. They need feedback despite not yet launched.

    5. For every person you get to sign up through your link, you’ll receive $5 dollars. That is if you can sent maybe 100 people, you will earn $500 dollars daily.
    Is the money real?
    Only time will tell when the site is officially launched to the public-as no one so far have redeemed his payment that I’ve had of. Though am still researching to ascertain the authenticity of the site, I have registered. If it works, fine and if it doesn’t, fine. I did it (register) because it is free and cost me nothing.
    It is however important to know that some way, some how, there will be stiff competition among the payment processing centers available online in the near future. As to how soon this will be, well only time can tell.

    Well i found out that they are giving $50 sign up bonus but how's that possible as not even pay pal offered that in their beginning, not sure if this processor is really a legit one but anyways it's worth a try at least.

    Just signed up, So far it looks like some sort of "Surveys" thingy.. Maybe I'm mising something.
    Haven't had a good look around yet but I get the impression you have to keep doing surveys to keep your account active..
    If your account lapses what happens? do you loose everything?
    Interesting..
