Is it worth it to open a Firepay acct to save onthe 1.9% neteller fee?
my affiliate has both neteller and firepay as payment options.
neteller charges 1.9% for xfers. is it worth it to open a firepay acct to save the 1.9% fee? |

Free is always better than not free.

Which is a lot better then Neteller's instant cash. Which is 8.9%!

You should never have to pay an instacash fee at neteller after your first deposit. Always use one of the poker rooms that pays the instacash fee for you, when you want to move additional funds into neteller!

Re: Is it worth it to open a Firepay acct to save onthe 1.9% neteller
Pick a site that takes both. Make a neteller deposit and withdraw it to Firepay (or vice versa). Some sites, like Poker Room, require that you've made a deposit with both methods first. If you pay the fee the first time you shouldn't have to pay it again if you're willing to spend the time waiting for deposits and withdrawals to cycle through. But, doing this might piss off the poker room since you stick them with fees each time so pick a site where you already have a good relationship or make sure you play there a reasonable amount before cashing out again.

Also be aware that if you don't keep your account active they (Firepay) will charge you a $10 fee to withdraw to your bank account.
I'm not sure what they mean by active because I received payments there then always withdrew. Last time I withdrew they hit me with a $10 fee and I haven't been back. |

[/ QUOTE ] thx... seems like too much trouble to open a firepay acct to save $20/month neteller fees (1.9%). hm.. but that's $240/year. |

It's always good to have a Firepay account. Sometimes there's a tremendous advantage, like CON WR vs. Neteller deposits. Sometimes some rooms will have Firepay only specials. And you never know when an alternative deposit method is going to be useful. Yes, Firepay is a pain for Party, but it's pretty useful elsewhere. I use it at least once every 3 months and that seems to keep them happy.

[/ QUOTE ] Why are you paying 1.9% for transfers? or are you refering to transfers with currency conversions? Otherwise i never pay fees with neteller. (unless your talking about person to person transfers with your affiliate) |
