I have always maintained that there is nothing wrong with PayPal that a healthy dose of meaningful competition would not fix in a heartbeat. Well, there is a new contender (I hope) called Paybox http://sn.im/pbx-ppc in the starting-up process.
Right now, it's all "funny money", but there are actually ways of converting it indirectly to real money (not directly, and not easily, but possible). The plan is to build an international currency that starts off with approximately parity with the USD. They are giving early-bird bonuses for signups who are willing to test the site and complete simple, short questionnaires that are designed to help them build what the customer(s) want.
At this point, the only risk is a little of your time, and the potential payback is substantial. In the one week I've been on the site, I've earned over $200 in early-bird bonuses. When (and if) they have a successful launch, that will become real money -- all of it with zero cost to me except for about 5 minutes a day of playing with the site (10 minutes on the day I wrote a complaint/suggestion).
If you are interested in the possibility of earning the bonuses while at the same time you are helping to build a viable competitor, please sign up using the link above (yes, that's an affiliate link).
Of course, don't hold your breath waiting for Ebay to accept it. That's not a concern for me, since I no longer sell (or buy) on Ebay.
I've been asked if this is a scam. The answer is, "I don't know." The bonuses do seem to be rather generous. But it doesn't smell like a scam (yet), and I have not (yet) put a dime of real money into the program. When/if it launches, they will probably ask for a link to a bank account, and I will open one just for using with that site -- just like I did with PayPal, in order to make it impossible for PayPal to steal very much from me. For now, it's a pleasant diversion from more mundane things, with the added excitement that comes from the possibility that PayPal might actually be forced to clean up its act. |
