One thing I have found with trying to make
money online is the number of payment processors out there. Now like everyone and their grandmother I
have a Paypal account. This however is
not the only thing you need when working online. A lot of websites have a problem with Paypal
and some will not even accept it for payments.
To get around this rather large problem you
will need to open accounts with some of the other payment processors out
there. Personally I have just opened one
with Alertpay because most sites will take this. Liberty Reserve is another processor that
most sites will take. I just found that
it is easier to open an Alertpay to Liberty Reserve.
Registering for an Alertpay account is
about the same process as getting a Paypal one.
You just have to go to their website and click sign up now. There are some things you will need to open
the account and they are:
- A valid email address that does not have an Alertpay account linked to it
- A physical address for shipping
- A credit or debit card that is valid
Once you have all of these things you can
sign up for your account. It is best
that you validate the account as this is an easy way to have money in the
account and to pay people. Validation of
the account can take around 3 days so just keep that in mind.
There are some problems I have found with
Alertpay that annoy me a bit. The fact
that Alertpay and Paypal are rivals in the payment processor industry means
that you cannot move money between the two.
Transferring money from a bank account by bank wire will take 2-4
business days and has a fee of $20 and by bank transfer takes 4-6 business days
and has varying fees. The only other
option is to send a check or money order by mail and seriously who does that
anymore?
Other than these problems I find Alertpay
to be quite useful and easy to use.
So if you don’t have an account yet you
should get one. Most online money making
opportunities will take Alertpay but not Paypal so you will open up a host of
income streams.
