I was checking out Plimus and saw they had a debit card option which I thought was cool, I just wish CB had the same thing!! What do you guys think?
Hi Patchkaa I use the plimus debit card option and it is great!!! the 15th of every month the commissions get uploaded and you can use it anywhere. I wish CB done this too I would be first in the queue for it. Pete
Not sure what you guys mean by this? In terms of debit card do you mean they pay you upfront? Or You can buy any product they have with it. I will do some research on it now!
Hi Chum112 Plimus will give you a debit mastercard and they will upload your commission to it every month so if you sell plimus products and make $500 commission in June. On the 15th July you will have a balance of $500 on your debit mastercard to spend just like any credit card. Hope this helps Pete
If the cb did that, I think you will get a lot of CHARGEBACKs, also the vendors will lose a lot of money.
I can't see why they don't offer debit cards. It would be no different from issuing checks or sending bank wires. It makes no difference to customer chargebacks or refunds, because its just an affiliate payment method. The only problem is that debit cards are often associated with dodgy pharma affiliate programs and people who want to dodge tax and such (no payments appear in your bank account), so maybe they don't want that kind of association? Incidentally, they use someone called "payoneer" to handle their debit cards. Having a look now...
@terryd no this is worldwide. I am not in the US it is a good idea as it makes payments to affiliates easier. Agreed it could be easier for people to dodge tax but for those that do it will catch them up eventually. As long as you keep the invoices and pey your taxes it is a very good payment method. Pete
