About using Alertpay with Abundant Living System
Alertpay charges fees for money a person receives regardless of what the money is for. However the fees they charge are lower than Paypal's fees. Alertpay charges 50 cents per withdrawal to a bank account. Alertpay DOES [according to their FAQ section] have a debit card like Paypal, but you have to contact Alertpay's customer service and ask for it.
You can use Alertpay in the Abundant Living System. It's up to you if you want to ask your prospects to cover the Alertpay fees. It took me less time to do these mathematical calculations [than the ones I did for Paypal] as you will see in the charts below. The calculations below are based on the 2.50%+$0.25 fee Alertpay charges for receiving money. Now mind you, that fee is based on USA Alertpay users. The international fee costs associated with Alertpay, you will have figure and find out for yourself as I don't know what the international currency and rates are for international users. I only know what the cost of Alertpay usage is for the USA.
The first chart below is based on if you were to ask [nicely perhaps?] your prospects to cover the Alertpay fee [keep in mind it's based on the based on the 2.50%+$0.25 fee charged to USA users]:
Level |
Amount to send through Alertpay |
Alertpay Fee |
| $75 | $77.18 | $2.18 |
| $150 | $154.11 | $4.11 |
| $250 | $256.67 | $6.67 |
| $500 | $513.08 | $13.08 |
| $1,000 | $1,025.90 | $25.90 |
| $2,500 | $2,564.36 | $64.36 |
| $3,500 | $3,590.00 | $90.00 |
| $5,000 | $5,128.47 | $128.47 |
| $7,500 | $7,692.57 | $192.57 |
| $10,000 | $10,256.67 | $256.67 |
| $12,000 | $12,307.95 | $307.95 |
As you can see, up to the $1,000 level, your prospects would actually save money, time, hassle and trouble of going to the post office. The average cost of sending a small package overnight to anyone in the USA is around $30.00-$40.00, depending on which courier is being used.
The second chart below is based on if you didn't ask your prospects to cover the Alertpay fee [keep in mind it's based on the based on the 2.50%+$0.25 fee charged to USA users]:
Level |
Amount you get |
Alertpay Fee |
| $75 | $72.88 | $2.12 |
| $150 | $146.00 | $4.00 |
| $250 | $243.50 | $6.50 |
| $500 | $487.25 | $12.75 |
| $1,000 | $974.75 | $25.25 |
| $2,500 | $2,437.25 | $62.75 |
| $3,500 | $3,412.25 | $87.75 |
| $5,000 | $4,874.75 | $125.25 |
| $7,500 | $7,312.25 | $187.75 |
| $10,000 | $9,749.75 | $250.25 |
| $12,000 | $11,699.75 | $300.25 |
Like I said, it's up to you if you want to ask your prospects to cover
the Alertpay fees. Alertpay could be the way to go for international
users wanting to join the Abundant
Living System. You save yourself a
trip to the post office, plus sending anything out through the post office
[or whatever carrier name you want to insert here] internationally is
costly. Not to mention having to deal with "customs forms" for
certain countries.
I have not ever heard of anyone having a bad experience with Alertpay. Alertpay has it where you can earn $5.00 for each referral. So in addition to spreading the word on the Abundant Living System, you can also spread the word on Alertpay.
