Hey guys,

Why big affiliate websites like Amazon Associate, CJ, Clickbank, ShareASale and ... do not pay you via Paypal?

I just want to work with the affiliate websites who pay via Paypal.

Only the networks know lol why not go and ask them lmao
 
10 years ago paypal was number one. But now, I don't know, it is declining.
 
Many reasons, mainly due to staggering fees PayPal charge compared to other methods.
 
due to their shitting rules and holding money for no reason. there are much better alternative payment nowadays :)

Yeah, then Paypal is stupid when it does not change its policies. Now I see some stupid websites like usertesting which is a total scam are using Paypal.

It depends on the countries too. For me, the best one is Webmoney, but I think the whole world does not recognize it at all. :eek:

Webmoney is mostly used in Russia. I also use it a long time ago. Well for your question I think because Paypal doesn't want to give any extra benefit to them?

Webmoney is great. Especially for Forex Traders, for example, Alpari which is one of the biggest traders have 0% commission on money paid by WebMoney or perfect money and bitcoins and does have Paypal and Payoneer at all.

I'm an Asian guy, very near to Russia. ;) I know the other reason, But I will not tell it. Because yesterday, one of the admins kicked me on the ass and said put your political garbage out of this forum, and I should respect that.

But there are not that many legit websites for making money via WebMoney. right? except for those forex things.

I think I should take opening a Payoneer account into consideration. Do you think Payoneer really checks to understand that Bank Account is really mine or not? I guess nobody knows.

Absolutely right, but due to other shits in the world, some people cannot use those alternatives. :(

If I remember correctly, they check the bank number account owner, it must the same name as the account details. And if you want to remove limit you need to upload ID, pasport etc
 
PayPal is a big competitor.
Amazon overall has no PayPal for a reason, why should they pay fees to use it?
And they dont want YOU to use it. It would be like paying a competitor money for no reason.

For the smaller sites, I think its just the fees.

What PayPal is trying to do, is to create a monopoly. If they have the might to say if your money is on hold or not, they definitely have too much control. If PayPal would be small, everyone would say "screw PayPal they put my Money on hold" but they are too BIG. They have a monopoly in a big Part of the world. Just think about the following: A bank pays you a small amount of money for giving money o them. But a lot of people just let the money sit on paypal for free.
All the other sites are trying to take that away from PayPal.
 
simply because paypal will screw both you and the affiliate company when they feel like.
and when you complain and they will send you to their Tos page.

So all I have to say is Ah! I have to wait until there is peace all around the world. :weep:

Yes, it sounds logical. But it will not last that much. Yes, Paypal is big but not bigger than Google and Amazon. I don't know how old you are. But I remember the time there was no Google, There was Yahoo! and another search engine which was great, Altavista ! In those times we could never even imagine that one day Altavista will vanish. But Google was born and everything changed. I even remember the first time when I wanted to open my Gmail, I had to get an invitation code. Without invitation it was impossible to register for a Gmail account.
 
Maybe because of Paypal fees? When even a 3% boost in earnings can make the difference for the growth of a business, it makes sense to try to reduce fees as much as possible.
 
Because it's absolutely unreliable way of payments which may simply frozen your money for like 6 months or so if they see something suspicious and in terms of affiliate programs payments there could be such, so networks do not even have that accounts.
