Should you consider AlertPay as an alternative to PayPal? Both services allow users to send money to recipients securely and without divulging personal account information to the recipient. Many are freelancers from Countries not supported by paypal, Like Bangladesh for exemple and i know many that are using VCC made acounts which can get closed at any time causing lost of hard work incomes... All i ask here is to know what do you think about Alertpay and will you integrate it and use it with paypal? That will be a well doing offering a chance to many freelancers from small countries in the world to be present on the market a chance that paypal didn't offered.
According my experience there is no alternative for paypal. Nothing can replace Paypal because over 70% of the people have paypal they do their transactions using paypal so though we have other solutions we cannot deal with them. For example if I have alertpay, I have to find out a customer who has alertpay to do a transaction, if my customer or buyer doesn't have alertpay we two cannot deal.
This is exactly what I am trying to solve right now. Taking paypal away from the monopoly they hold, I intend to become the apple of payment processors and aiming to take microsoft down, little by little. See this thread to join in on the conversation.
I use AlertPay every day. Their services, facilities and customer service have improved dramatically over the last year or so. I don't understand why so many people continue to use Paypal when the number of their customers who continue to have their accounts frozen arbitrarily is clearly so high. It makes no sense at all to me.
Thanks for contributing Alexa, I agree with you even though I have never used Alertpay lol. How many transactions do you do on a daily basis?
I agree with you Alexa, Alert pay is good, not only that moneybooker is also good. domainloco, I can go for moneybooker or alertpay but if the world doesn't change, its useless for us to change. I have PayPal,moneybooker and alertpay and always I try to use alertpay or moneybooker but other parties reply is "sorry I have paypal only". Its essential to have a bridge between these payment solutions. Then a Paypal account holder can do a transaction with alertpay account holder via it.
Alertpay is good, I've been using them along with paypal, moneybookers, epassporte and have tried a few others as well. I think it's a good idea for us all to diversify to at least several different payment systems. Competition is good, don't let any of these companies gain too much of a stronghold as paypal has done. Open a few accounts and mention them when you do transactions, help spread the word.
Here the url: https://www.alertpay.com/index.aspx I'm still don't have any alertpay account since most of payment using 100% paypal. It was a good alternative to reduce monopoly of paypal.
alertpay would become popular only if lots of websites on net start accepting alert pay payments. Right now this is not the case, you can't buy using alert pay. Very few sites are accepting alertpay.
AlertPay is Growing Day By Day .... I think People Should Also Accept AlertPay Payments as PayPal Alternatives .. It Gives The Freelancers Chance to BUY or They Only Just Watch Around Only ...
Alertpay is great, I really love to use them, The best thing about them is that they are Global, However I came with a payment System called Plimus, Have any one of you heard about this?
Yeah Plimus is new to me as well. Already signed up but it's extremely complicated to get started. You have to create contracts and HTML pages for each of your products. It seems to be a complete e-commerce solution but takes quite a while to set up.
