Whee Bel Ami convo

At the risk of hijacking a thread originally about a completely different program (though I suppose it's already been hijacked) I'll fire off some answers to some of the points made here about Bel Ami Cash...


1. Moneybookers. Moneybookers is actually a great service. They are essentially like a European PayPal, just better. BelAmiCash processes with CCBill, but CCBill was unable to provide payout services for the program (the original intent of the accts. split form was to enable webmaster affiliates to be paid by CCBill. The form was a condition CCBill had placed upon BelAmiCash) and so BelAmi went with MoneyBookers instead.

The cool thing about MoneyBookers is you don't need to have an existing MoneyBookers account or some huge investment of time and effort in to MoneyBookers in order to get your money. BelAmi sends you a notification of your payment through MoneyBookers. You go to MoneyBookers and select to receive your money via check or wire. You get your money within a few days (and I literally mean just a few days, even with checks).

Because BelAmi is in Europe and time considerations this imposed upon various aspects of getting payments out, Bel Ami decided Moneybookers would be a great way to go. Webmasters still get payments on time and in time, transactions are immediate and there is almost no time added to the delivery process despite things having to "cross the pond" to North American webmasters.

2. Traffic Leaks

http://www.belamicash.com/preview/me...e_preview.html

is the special entrance page (after the disclaimer page) designed for referrals through BelAmiCash to the special join.
There's a lot that's gone in to the development of that page, eliminating BelAmi's old registration-required free trial and building an interface designed to convert. It's dynamic, and at regular intervals throughout the year will refresh with new content to interest even previously-referred surfers who might not have signed up the first time around.

It is also going through some modifications at present, adjusting the links to the store and VOD area at the bottom to instead go in to the join page, yet keeping that look and those graphics/links for when additions are made to the affiliate program. Shortly, BelAmiCash webmasters will be able to earn product sales commissions and customized stores (individual and unique to each affiliate webmaster) as well as VOD/PPV commissions of 70% - twice what most all other VOD/PPV sponsor programs offer. Which is why the page set up you see is in place.

I think that the things taking place with BelAmiCash are pretty exciting, especially the 70% commission VOD and PPV program, the custom Bel Ami product stores that all webmasters will be able to add to their BelAmiCash account, free content being provided to webmasters, exclusive promotional opportunities, and more.

While there's a lot of trial and error ongoing at present (BelAmiCash is about 3 months old right now) and it's a growing operation, I'd suspect we'll see quite shortly one of the most impressive, popular and well configured sponsor programs on the web in BelAmiCash very soon.

Feel free to hit me up if you guys have any more questions.
