[Weg Cory]

In response to the “authorization” charge.

To be honest, I have no idea who wrote that. However, it is of course, only partially true.

The most direct response I can give in this situation is to say: We want the CC. Point blank, we want the Credit Card information, it is the life blood of a program such as ours. That Auth page explanation? We can rewrite it 100 ways that could all be true. That said, I don’t see that page as being misleading as I don’t think it persuades a user to submit a CC. It simply defines one reason we would take the CC.

I can rewrite that page over lunch. But I doubt it would make a difference. I am pretty sure that no one at Weg would trump me if I changed it. In other words, the page is not methodical.






For free content?

We offer free content in Join4Free, however, the ease of access is relative, and therefore I will not define it. I know one thing, we don’t make a living providing the best free porn on the Internet. We make money from consumers upgrading. This presents an all to common problem of balancing between “webmasters” and “consumers.”

We are not a perfect program; We could stand to improve our program for webmasters and we attempt to improve it every day. In the same respect, we are always attempting to improve the program for consumers. At the end of the day, we are trying to flush the program out as a whole so that webmasters make money and that consumers get what they want.

We can’t giveaway the farm for content no differently than we can’t offer $200 payouts and expect to profit.

Here are the key points: Webmasters are always paid even if the consumers never make us money. Consumers are never forced to sign up. If our “free” content is inadequate, the only entity that loses is us, because we already paid the webmaster.


We ensure that our program remains consumer focused in concern with the handling of emails, processing of transactions and consumer support. We do not ever sacrifice our business for profits. I have been here for two years; we have not sold an email list in that time. Our consumer disclosure and mailers are above and beyond in all compliance oriented obligations respectfully.





Why promote J4F over Free Trials?

Well, we have both options in our portfolio. We have our own merchant accounts and we see to it that those accounts remain unscathed. We have a history of doing such.

In our system, we process free trials with EZ Pass. We also have paid trials (I am currently building 2 new paysites that will compliment this portfolio). So lets talk about Free email, Free Trials and Paid Trials.

Where do we want traffic to go? Paid trials. Period. We will make more money for traffic that hits our paid trial sites, not too mention that we get a “proven transaction” out of the deal, as opposed to an “authorization.”

Where do webmasters want to send? Free. They have an easier time promoting free in many cases.

What is the incentive to promote Paid? Exclusive content. Hence, I am having content shot as we speak.

Now, why would anyone promote J4F over EZPass? Because simply put, they do better with the promotion methods that J4F offers. Do not get caught up in thinking that Wegcash is just J4F, I assure you, we do a great many straight Free Paysite transactions and we do a good amount of Paid transactions on a daily basis. However, we do have an elite J4F following.

Could I personally do better with J4F, rather than Free Paysite trials? No. But I am not every webmasters. If I could make the same money as many J4F webmasters make, would I then? Yes, I would. It is a different beast. J4F is a legacy beast in terms of this industry.

I hope my response is a good start. Keep the questions coming. I am heading to the store now to grab a fruit smoothie for lunch.
