    Question Amazon Payments

    So I think I found a great way to transfer funds! Amazon Payments! It appears that you can set it up with your bank account or a credit card although funds being transfered are limited to $500-$1000 per month unless whoever is transferring is transferring from their bank account and you have yours set up with your bank account in which case any amount of funds can be transferred. They charge nothing for either party and I spoke with the Amazon Payments Dept and it seems the privacy is incredibly discreet. All the person depositing funds needs is to have a Amazon Payments account set up (preferably with their bank account so they can transfer unlimited funds) to your set up account (again preferably with your bank account) is your e-mail address and they do not release any of your information. Nor are you released any of the other parties information.

    I've spoken with the payments department twice on the phone and I can't seem to find a loophole where information would leak or I would run into a snag. What is worrying me is that it seems no other camgirls I've spoken to have heard of this.
    Sooooo...

    A. I'm questioning if someone knows something I don't- such as paypal has that whole legality issue of adult services etc.

    and

    B. If it is as great as it seems, to share the good news!

    I await to hear feedback

    it's a no go for adult related transactions:

    first item on the prohibited list is: Adult Oriented Products and Services - includes pornography (including child pornography), sexually explicit materials (in all media types such as Internet, phone, and printed materials), dating services, escort services, or prostitution services

    yeah, but what happens if you get caught?
    do they freeze and take it like paypal? or just not allow you to transfer money anymore?

    Might be worth a go if they just cut you off from further transactions and don't rip you off if caught.

    how amazon deals with unacceptable use transactions is outlined

    1) reversal of the transaction without penalty to the customer (he's now free and clear to go fuck someone else over)

    2) suspension/closure of one's account and existing funds withheld

    Another risk not mentioned in the AUP: customers threatening to report camgirl who accept amazon payments in attempt to get free ish

    Business expenses are part of doing business. I guess if someone wants to risk it they can, but then why not just use paypal? The reason not to use either is because this is our business, based on my observations the most successful chicas treat it as such and work within the rules to find the best options available. Those rules (higher processing costs for adult) suck but deviating from them puts chicas in a precarious position where their business models will come crashing down the moment some dickwad decides to fuck with them.

    No one can build a sustainable, successful business without having a legitimate way of receiving payments.

    The other day I misunderstood the whole 'Amazon payment' thing (I just thought it meant 'pay with your Amazon gift card'), because I ordered an exclusive Justin Timberlake 20/20 Experience black t-shirt online, and when it gave me the option to pay with Amazon payment, I was so happy thinking I can use part of my gift card instead of my own money. Needless to say, I was a little disappointed when I realized 'Amazon payment' is NOT the same as Amazon gift card, and that I did have to pay out of pocket. *facepalm* LOL.
