Better late than never. :)<BR/><BR/>I only thought Henrietta was wrong because her original post made it sound like the moment you lower PS status, ProPay will jump on you and kill your rates.<BR/><BR/>Brandon told me that ProPay accounts will be reviewed every 12 months. So if you sign up as Gold in Jan 09, drop to Silver for 3 months, and back up to Gold, you will NOT see a drop in rates. You're not ping-ponging constantly, and I thought Henrietta gave that impression.<BR/><BR/>Of course, I was wrong too. I thought that once you had a rate, it was locked in forever. It sounds like it's locked in for a 12-month period, unless you want them to look at lowering it earlier.<BR/><BR/>:)Debbie Levitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01917657003989747189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4056474203732155833.post-68963393590338564132008-10-24T05:28:00.000-07:002008-10-24T05:28:00.000-07:00Quote: "In other words, if you're an itty-bitty se...Quote: "<I>In other words, if you're an itty-bitty seller or casual, you have to offer PayPal, a merchant account (prohibitively expensive) or ProPay (also prohibitively expensive for me with my tiny volume).

It looks like you are offering choice to get around anti-trust laws, in the hope that nobody pursues the less obvious breaches. <BR/><BR/>Kind Regards, KevinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4056474203732155833.post-19148097345934603462008-10-24T04:04:00.000-07:002008-10-24T04:04:00.000-07:00In other words, if you're an itty-bitty seller or ...In other words, if you're an itty-bitty seller or casual, you have to offer PayPal, a merchant account (prohibitively expensive) or ProPay (also prohibitively expensive for me with my tiny volume).

I believe Etsy has a ProPay option (though I could be mistaken). Perhaps they have plans for people who are multi-channel?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4056474203732155833.post-5421983857527311742008-10-23T15:24:00.000-07:002008-10-23T15:24:00.000-07:00In your previous article about Propay you obviousl...In your previous article about Propay you obviously had it correct which is why I responded to Debbie's comment where she accused you of having incorrect facts.<BR/> <BR/>I had the same understanding that you did - a seller's Powerseller status (and change in status) DOES in fact determine the rate and/or the eligibility for a specific ProPay program.<BR/> <BR/>Perhaps Brandon was addressing the comments between Debbie and myself -- where she and I obviously disgreed. I think Brandon was saying that Debbie eventually got it right and that I got it right the first time. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4056474203732155833.post-34672422196719782552008-10-23T13:42:00.000-07:002008-10-23T13:42:00.000-07:00Thanks for your work on this one, Henrietta.

As a Powerseller who is both greatly interested in ProPay, but has also recently been bumped down in PS status, this is enormously relevant to me.Cliffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15387068331314989062noreply@blogger.com
