Hi,
I am new to the industry. I prefer keep my identity on the low end of things and don't want to use my personal credit cards. I have heard that some Visa gift cards work on Eros to pay for your ads. If anyone knows which ones and where to buy them, I would be very grateful. Thank you and happy Thanksgiving.Claire
If you are US based and Eros's payment engine is outside the US. You won't find a gift card that will work, unless you buy it directly from your bank ( or in some other way tie the card to your social security number). And then of course they know who you are.
provided you go to the Website and register. You don't even have to give them any real information, except your email. They will send you an email to activate. Once you activate, it is like any other credit card.
I had to send a copy of my DL to p411 and Eros.
XOXO

Never had to.
I would not have.
Then again, I have no issues giving my real credit card since all of the credit cards companies have strict rules as to what information they can and cannot keep.
Yes, occasionally idiot CEO's and CISO's like Equifax ignores. Equifax was 100% preventable now to it is going to cost them in excess of $100 billion, yes billion.
A front for some other activity or there is a person or persons of interest they are looking at for some reason. They would have absolutely no interest in the users of the site. IMO users have nothing to worry about so stop all drama.
Stop all the drama? Not sure how you even picked up "drama" from my post? I don't even think AF took it as "drama" π I didn't even say I was worried about the shit. If I was, I wouldn't have sent my id to begin with.
Have a wonderful day! βπ

IMHO Feds are looking for BIG FISH here with this Eros bust and at the same time holding their "Big Brother" cards tight to the vest. (maybe to use later?) I gotta think their digging for underage/alien sex trafficking, slavery, big money laundering etc. Because of the internet this is crossing state lines and that takes it into Uncle Sam territory. Listen, If Sam wants you, Sam will get you! With today`s technology I wouldn`t be surprised if the Feds could do remote colonoscopies on our asses if they thought we were hiding something up there, lol.
How much would it cost the Fed/State to bust every single advertising provider in the US?? Exactly, and that aint happening. Think of all the court delays, appeals, toss outs for lack of evidence, violations of constitutional rights, illegal search and seizures etc, mind boggling isn`t it!
I think that most of you providers fear (and rightfully so) being "outed" to your family, friends, civvie jobs and your community. I have the utmost empathy for you trying to stay UTR at the same time getting the most mileage for your efforts while pleasing the likes of me and my contemporaries in our hobby. Bless you all for that but If it did play out badly, what would be the damage for a level four first offense, a $100 wrist slap? Not trying to minimize here, God forbid this should happen but there is a risk factor no doubt that you were aware of "goin' in" but lets chill a little til we know more.
For now (I think and hope) LE will be content to occasionally bust a BP girl or pop a few low end street hoe`s in seedy neighborhoods which works for me as I stay far away from those venues. Upscale p4p only way to go.
It would do wonders for state/Fed budgets if they could legalize our hobby and sports betting too. Think of the tax revenue that would generate?!! I don`t think I can count that high........ Someday maybe. Meantime Sam and state, stay the fuck out of our bedrooms and go target terrorists.
Thanks for listening,
Jeff
TER accepts anonymous Gift Card balances (via the PayGarden monetization site).
TER accepts anonymous money orders.
.
Does Eros do any of that?
credit card (US bank) or bitcoin.
They do not accept money orders, strictly credit cards and bitcoin.
I'll be renewing my ad on there next month, since I already bought 2 weeks of a special ad in December, I have to pay for a month of base ads. But I don't want to use my bank card. I'll be calling to check if they take reloadable gift cards. Just not in a rush to do it now, since I have 10ish more days.
I don't know if this will apply to Eros's payment destination (US? or Foreign?), but not all cards can be used for Int'l transactions from the US. See this recent comment:

.
A vendor might say that they accept a given card or payment option but the middle man (the bank) might block it if it is anonymous.

It's a completely invaluable resource in this industry & honestly only going to become more and more useful as αΉime goes on.
Thank you to everyone who shared. I am thankful to all who have shared. Have a great Thanksgiving.
