Is Alertpay as good as PayPal?

    There are a lot of affiliate programs that are switching over to Alertpay and I don't know if I should be using them. What is your experience with them?

    I have used them a couple of times, they are ok but moneybookers a better substitute to paypal. You mean programs like PTC? These programs are HYIP-ish so I guess paypal won't want to be associated with them.

    Yeah those were the programs. I can't remember why I didn't sign up with moneybrokers before I think I heard bad stuff about them? Also egold had a bad rep ages ago also not sure about now.

    I don't think moneybookers allow PTC's to use them as their payment processors. e-gold is not bad, they have been around for sometime now and survived numerous government attempts to shut them down, but don't leave too much money there since they have been known to close accounts on a whim.

    Egold isn't safe as per my liking.

    I'd like to know more about AlertPay as well. The random account holds that occur with paypal, is this common with AlertPay? Do they have specific deposit and withdrawal limits or are they as lenient as paypal?

    Alertpay is just for ptc programs yes, paypal is more of a global choice for most designers / people that do alot of online business which for the most part every person on here that sells a product etc has a paypal account (for the most part)

    i think they are scam

    they have this option " withdraw your funds with egold"

    and when you click on it does nto work

    so you can consider how bad they are , if they dont allow egold withdrawal then why are they keeping that option

    alertay will be a big scam company

    paypal is the way to go or moneybookers

    rest all are sucky
