Hello community.

I hope to find answers from people who have experience with my questions.

Two questions:

1. Anyone experienced with payment gateway platforms like Epoch, CCBill, Segpay, Verotel, etc?

What transaction fees do each of them charge? is there any additional cost for using these platforms?

Do you recommend any other services?

----------

2. Is there a service on the market where I can create Checkout Page links to sell my products? all of this integrated with my website.

I'm not looking for services like OnlyFans, Fanvue, etc, where I have to create a profile, I don't want to create a profile, I want to create products (Whether images or videos) and share the links with my clients on my website.

----------

Thanks.
 
I used to use ccbill for many years for a paysite and loved it for making it easy to set up an affiliate program and they are definitely reliable, they've been around a LONG time and are pretty good with preventing chargebacks. I think they took 14-15% but I have no idea about using them for other things outside recurring membership billing.

For my artwork which is not tied to my sexwork, I use Godaddy as my hosting and shopping cart/credit card processing is integrated with it, but idk about porn.

Good luck!

Verotel is no longer offering services to the USA not sure where you are based

I had a great experience w them years ago

CCBill has like a yearly fee of around $1000
Verotel had a yearly fee they would waive if you had enough volume

Can’t speak to the others but most have some fee structure

yeah, Verotel has the yearly high risk fee now :/


they also have had a kinda 'spotty' history lately in terms of sending payments promptly and in full, esp for merchants outside the US (who can only receive payment in paper check of all things). they closed their aff program for the US as well, late last year if I recall correctly. some people have no problem with them, but I've heard/read enough over the years to raise more than a few red flags

CCBill recently had a big snafu with massive delays of missing payments to Eur-based merchants, something to do with their prior intermediary bank used for sending SEPA, but I think that's been all cleared up

Epoch is def an option. same high risk fees as every other system for Visa/MC, but a little bonus is you can actually accept paypal (and a whole host of other regional payment systems) through Epoch. re pp specifically, the volume can't go over a certain percentage of customer purchases (as in, you can't use Eposh just for pp)

Segpay I've heard good things about, but a merchant friend of mine starting her own site with a lengthy processing history couldn't get a reply back from them. dunno if they're just aiming to work with the big top companies but worth a try I suppose contacting them?


@latinbeauty19 depending on your processing record (history of client payments through indy sites, clips sites etc) you could consider creating your own merchant account through a company such as MobiusPay at MobiusPay dot com. way better rates than netbilling and, again unlike nb, their reps are super helpful

the great thing about your own merchant account is you are in total control of scrubbing payments for fraud, challenging cb's (they will happen, fact of life no matter whatcha do) and the processing rate will be significantly lower. your relationship will be directly with the bank, no third party go-between as with an IPSP

with any of the above you can easily set up check-out pages for specific products

I hope the above helps a bit, feel free to message me if you have any specific questions or post 'em here. if I don't have the answer I'll know peeps who do

good luck!
