Just saw an interesting review where the guy says he prefers electronic payment over cash because young guys don't carry wads of cash.  I always preferred to pay in cash because of the lack of a paper trail, no other reason.  
   
 Am I just old and out of touch or is there really a better and safer way to play now???

but certainly NOT because you prefer cash. I bet you won't find more than one or two percent of both the men and the women here of all ages that don't prefer "cash in illegal business" to use a "fancyism" lol

No, you are not, at least not in regards to this

I offer CC payments for established and trusted friends, but only have a couple of clients that use that option. Most men still prefer paper.

Other than cash seems careless to me. I'm single, but I still don't want an electronic record somewhere  of my hobbying.

Credit on all my purchase but in this game I stick to cash. Why leave an electronic trail

Re: No, you are not, at least not in regards to this

I am entertained that I receive Thank You/Rewards Points for the transactions...

but in this case I don't think youth indicates wisdom.  

Let me play devils advocate,

I would never with a cc why would you want a paper trail! I can see how that might be safer for you girls but I don't ever see me paying with a cc

whom I know very well.  To a newbie, I would never recommend it.

If i was a betting woman, I would say the girl's do not have their "Escort' name ringing up  
on their merchant charge.~  I'm always asked first, "what is the name that will appear on my credit card statement?" Never, will it read, 'SexySamantha'  

You do not want to leave ANY kind of a paper trail when doing something illegal.   You want to be as much  of a ghost as you can.  Anything else is, and I don't mean to offend, really stupid.

And either option shouldn't be an issue. Nonetheless, the same goes for the clients as well. Some of us have been burned by counterfeits and charge-backs on cards.  

Cash is Great.
Credit and Check will work too, when paid in advance.

Not that I consider any provider just a piece of meat

as you leave, you don't know each other.  As it should be.  Just dumb to leave a paper trail.  And from her POV, cash doesn't bounce or get charge backs or other schemes to defraud you of the money you worked for.

as long as it would BE the VERY SEXY Samantha ....  

Safety - you do not want to leave an hotel with 2000+ ( lady) as well as and gentlemen may feel uncomfortable  to care such amounts  

Always pay cash, unless there's an incentive to pay credit. Knew a provider who would knock off $100 of the cost of a 2+ hour appointment if you prepaid electronically. If more escorts were like that, then I'd pay electronically more, but why make a 2 party transaction (me and an escort) a 4 party transaction (me, my credit card company, escort, her credit card company)?

I've had several clients do a split payment of cash and say, an AMEX gift card or two, depending on the amount. He doesn't have to worry about explaining a large withdrawal of cash and can use his credit card to buy the gift card. So he could potentially bury it in another purchase if necessary and perhaps earn CC points as well.  

I get a lot of the clients using CC's, electronic transfers such as paypal & similar types.. I like it better then cash, I don't have to make a trip to the bank..  But I have mine set up as a business account for tax purposes...

"Certain, uh, indiscretions with prostitutes put an abrupt end to the promising career of Judge --- --- in 1982. Police raided a call-girl outfit and nabbed [his] credit-card receipts, along with detailed descriptions of his sexual preferences."

when on a business trip to Atlanta.  Stopped in at the Gold Club and one of the cuties enticed me into the "private room" (which is a rip, I know), and I paid with the credit card.  My spidey sense must have kicked in a little because I asked the guy if it might be a problem, and he said no, that it runs through as a restaurant. Well, 10 min in he comes back and says the credit card people want to talk to me to verify my identity and so I do.  I get home to the wifey, and I haven't even put my bag down and she says.."Well, it's a good thing you weren't anywhere you weren't supposed to be.  The credit card company called and I know everywhere you've been."
