StrictPay<\/a> is undoubtedly becoming the strongest competitor for the e-currencies that requires verification, such as AlertPay<\/a> and SolidTrustPay<\/a>. But uniquely among them the verification process is now obligatory and every member that wishes to open a StrictPay<\/a> account must complete the verification procedure which includes sending a completed form with documents proving your identification such as copies of your passport and utility bills. As the admin Mike explained in his recent newsletter such compulsory verification of all accounts are made in compliance with Panamanian laws and regulations. Since StrictPay<\/a> payment processor is officially registered in Panama they have to respect such laws. But don’t let the verification procedure scare you off. If you have any slight issues you can always submit a support ticket which will be answered within minutes if you’re lucky to have it submitted within business hours.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nI would like to add that the verification process is easy to complete and usually it’s made within 24 hours so you won’t need to wait long. Though this process is simple it can scare off many potential scammers who tend to hide their own identity. So this would be an additional guarantee that the investment programs which accept StrictPay<\/a> as their payment processor are more legitimate and trustworthy than those who don’t. Of course, it shouldn’t be the only factor to influence your decision to invest in a program but it could be an additional advantage for a program’s admin and his program’s credibility. For instance, from my list of programs I can name MegaLido<\/a>, Tradelite<\/a> and 12DailyForever<\/a> that accept StrictPay<\/a> as their payment processor meaning they have passed the verification procedure and their identities were confirmed by StrictPay<\/a> administration.<\/p>\n

Let’s look at the funding options in StrictPay<\/a> \u2013 meaning how can you fund your account in StrictPay<\/a>? Well, I think the most convenient method would be funding via LibertyReserve<\/a>. They will only charge you 2.5% for that (such low fees are for a limited time on special offer from StrictPay<\/a> administration so use this opportunity). After you confirm your desire to fund your StrictPay<\/a> account via LibertyReserve<\/a> you should pay the necessary amount and your account in StrictPay<\/a> will be credited within 24-72 hours.<\/p>\n

If you wish to fund your StrictPay<\/a> account via another popular e-currency SolidTrustPay<\/a> then the fee will be 2.5% + $1.25 for every transaction. There are also other funding options like Bank Wire and ACH Transfer for the members with US bank accounts. By the way, today it was announced by StrictPay<\/a> that they resumed to accept ACH Transfers. Here’s the latest update regarding this:<\/p>\n

“We are happy to announce that we now have ACH Funding available again for all members with U.S. bank accounts. We know it has been a long, and sometimes inconvenient, process for many of you, but we appreciate your patience during this trying time. In the end, it was just easier for us to switch to a new ACH provider, because we were not getting quality information concerning the situation from our older provider. And of course having to install an entirely new system took more time than even we planned for. We also wanted to make sure we did our due diligence on the new provider, and their security systems are very strong.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

With the new ACH processing system, you are going to see some fee changes, but we have made sure they are minor ones. We have unfortunately had to increase our regular ACH transaction fees. We know that anytime fees change, we cannot please everyone, but we feel like we offer many great features that offset a minor fee adjustment for regular ACH transactions.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this wait may have caused, and we appreciate you continuing to choose StrictPay<\/a> as your payment option. We know you have many choices and it means a lot to the entire staff that you believe in what we have to offer. And feel free to use our new Live Chat Support feature to ask any questions you might have concerning the new changes<\/em>.<\/em>”<\/p>\n

As you can see there are plenty of ways to deposit funds in your StrictPay<\/a> account but how easy is it to withdraw your money? I would like to emphasize that unfortunately it’s impossible to receive your funds back to LibertyReserve<\/a> or even to SolidTrustPay<\/a> which I know many potential members of StrictPay<\/a> would consider not a good option. If we look at the exchangers that might exchange StrictPay<\/a> to other popular e-currencies we will not be able to find one. I don’t know why there are no exchangers available for StrictPay<\/a> e-currency but in my opinion it’s a huge drawback for some members that can’t use Bank or ACH transfers as withdrawal options.<\/p>\n

Fortunately for such members StrictPay<\/a> has other options available for withdrawing your money, such as Debit card and Check by mail. These are great opportunities to withdraw your money. Take Debit card option \u2013 order it till the end of October for a special price of only $19.95 (usually $27.95) and you will be able to withdraw your money from any ATM with a Visa logo on it. Take Check by mail option \u2013 you only pay a $2 fee and will be able to have your delivered check cashed in your local bank. Check will be sent to the mail address specified by you and verified during the verification process you must pass. I myself used the check delivery service and must say that it was sent to me from the US and operated by a well-known American bank. So I can confirm that the process of receiving and cashing the check is quite easy and cheap (only a $2 fee applied).<\/p>\n

As you can see StrictPay<\/a> can be a very convenient option for you if you are ready to provide your personal info for verification purposes and it can easily compete with such big names as AlertPay<\/a> and SolidTrustPay<\/a>. By the way, the fees StrictPay<\/a> is charging on receiving funds is only 2% so it’s smaller than their main competitors offer.<\/p>\n

Of course, I can’t not say a couple of words about the security of StrictPay<\/a> site because in my opinion every site that handles money should have increased protection against hackers and DdoS-attacks. You may notice that there was significant downtime in September but the StrictPay<\/a> site improved its security and it seems safe now. The site is using top-notch Prolexic protection and offering such security features as SSL encryption of all the transactions made and IP detection systems that will automatically ask for the new code that will be sent to your email address if your IP changes (only after that you will be able to access your account). Together with all the security features StrictPay<\/a> has SCI and API merchant features and is offering quite an attractive incentive program to their partners.<\/p>\n

I hope the admin of StrictPay<\/a> will be able to answer my questions for an interview which I’m planning to publish very soon on my blog. So far I can’t see any disadvantages to using StrictPay<\/a> payment processors except maybe the necessity to get through a verification process and the inability to withdraw your StrictPay<\/a> balance to different payment processors. Other features including top-notch DDoS-protection and extremely secure site and especially very helpful and fast support StrictPay<\/a> offers are making it a rising star in the payment processor field. And I believe this star will be only shining brighter with time and will become a major player in the HYIP and autosurf industry.<\/p>\n

Other news for today.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It seems that AggeroInvestment<\/a> program is doing even better than expected. At least, we can draw such conclusions from the recent newsletter sent by the admin Roger (read my interview with him here<\/a>). I remind you that from now on AggeroInvestment<\/a> is paying 8.5% daily if you surf 15 sites (127.5%) and only 7% if you don’t or forgot to surf for the day (105%). The main distinctive feature is that you can choose if you want to surf or not and you will be paid anyway in 15 days upon expiration of your upgrade unit. Here’s the latest update from Roger for your attention:
\n“Good day to all of you! I hope this email reaches you in great health and in good spirits.
\nWeekend is almost upon us, time again for another Aggero newsletter. Our program is on its 7th week now. Pretty soon, we will be celebrating our second month anniversary. Many things have already happened, many members have already been paid, and many people are starting to see our potential. More good things are still in store, just wait and see.
\nA few changes happened this week (and some updates), mainly:
\n1) <\/strong>Our site was re-formatted with new colors, a new header, 3 rate images and new banners. No more yellow and green, our motif now are different shades of blue. That also includes the banner advertisements scattered althroughout the site.
\n2) <\/strong>Our rates changed for the better. Previously it was 7.5%-8.0% depending if you surfed or not. Now it is 7.0% if you didn not surf and 8.5% if you surfed. This was done because we’d rather give a few more percentage to those who actually view our sites everyday. Remember that we are an advertising company. Soon, many advertisers will use our site to advertise their ads, and we want to make sure that they are getting their money’s worth. And we can only do this by making sure that we are actually looking at their ads.
\n3) <\/strong>Speaking of advertisers, we will be adding a few of them in the coming weeks. I’ve already added one of them and you can easily see it on the page peel and banners throughout the site. If you get the chance, click on them and see what they have to offer. They will generate money for our site.
\n4) <\/strong>All payments are paid and on time. Our outside investments are generating us enough money to keep the site going even with the higher rate. My wife did all the math and she said we should be safe. I talked to her about getting it all the way to 9.0% if you surf, but she said we will see how our funds hold up until the end of this month, hopefully by our second month anniversary.
\n5) <\/strong>This coming week, look for our banner to be promoted at MMG. I am in talks with their advertising group right now to see how we can maximize our promotional efforts and generate a lot of potential members.
\n6) <\/strong>I would like to thank all those members who got paid and posted at all major public forums (MMG, TG, DTM, etc.). That’s the only thing I ask of you, please post that you got paid. It will go a long way to promote our site. I am not going to ask you to vote on any monitors, ever. That is at your discretion.
\n7) <\/strong>Can you translate English to Spanish? Then contact me, I might have a job for you.
\nRemember that each one of you matter to me. I am doing this so in my own small way, I know that I am helping people and trying to affect them positively.<\/em>”<\/p>\n

The admin of another quite successful program QuantumInv<\/a> Alicia (read my interview with here here<\/a>) issued another update today to celebrate QuantumInv<\/a>‘s first months online. In my opinion, it’s a good achievement and I wish Alicia many more months to come \u2013 her program certainly deserves it:
\n“A month has passed since the launch of QuantumInv<\/a> online investment platform. During this period over 800 investors have decided to start financial partnership with us. In accordance with our goals the first phase of our project has proven to be a strong foundation for further development of QuantumInv<\/a>.
\nWith such positive growth, We believe our members deserve more quality support from QuantumInv<\/a>. In this regard, We are glad to inform our members, starting from now on you are free to use new ways of contacting our support service, Live chat has been enabled, Live support will be available at least 8 hours per day, every day, which will extend to 24\/7 in the near future.
\nWe also have sent representative to some public forums, you are most welcome to discuss our investment platform on those forums. Our support representative will answer any question you have about our investment platform. You can find links to our discussion forums on “Rate us” page.
\nAs we continue into the future it is important to maintain our eye on the long-term plans we have established. We believe recent and upcoming improvements will become an exciting step towards our larger goals we at QuantumInv<\/a>, are working to achieve. The hard work of the first month finally taking off as QuantumInv<\/a> proceeds into the future with a tight grip and exciting opportunities.
\nSpecial thanks to our partners and members for helping out with the success of QuantumInv<\/a>.<\/em>”<\/p>\n

I’m very glad that I received another email from the admin of 8DailyForever<\/a> Susan in which she announced that she finally caught-up with all the payouts after returning home from her trip. Here’s the latest update that might be of interest to all members of 8DailyForever<\/a> (read my review of the program here<\/a>):
\n“Greetings to all 8DF members, and an especially warm welcome to the members who just joined us !
\nToday I returned from a 5 day vacation after celebrating a very special family wedding and reunion, so since last night I’ve been working nonstop to catch up with the pending payouts, and most have now been fulfilled to Oct.9th. By tomorrow, I should be up-to-date, and back to the usual 24 hour (or much faster) cashouts!!
\nMany thanks for your understanding folks. It felt really great to enjoy a few days with family, and to have your blessing at the same time !
\nFor those who still don’t know about our blog (where you can read all our important updates and chat with friendly members), here again is the link<\/a>.
\nDo be sure to go there often, as there you’ll find all the news, contests, AND our 8DF social forum where the most wonderful members in the world hang out— ask any member for the link!
\nI apologise that I’m behind with support mails this week, as I decided it was most urgent to work on the payouts first. Because so many mails accumulated while I was away, I will delete those I haven’t been able to answer, so that I’ll have a fresh start tomorrow. If you have an urgent request or question that really needs an answer, please feel free to resend it.
\nHave a great Friday everyone, and please remember to post in the forums and monitors when you are paid !! (There is a radial button in the menu at the top of the home page that will bring you directly there.)<\/em>”<\/p>\n

I joined another quite interesting program last night and I already listed it on my monitoring page. It’s called SilverInvest<\/a> and is known for quite an innovative business idea from the admin Louise. As she explained to me SilverInvest<\/a> is offering quite sustainable returns with 4%-7% weekly (payments are credited every Friday) or 22% monthly with minimum deposit of $10 and no expiration by earning money in quite an unusual way. They buy silver from mining companies and handcraft it into elegant necklaces, rings, and other fine jewelry. These unique and fashionable pieces are sold in retail stores around the world. Thus they make some profit for the program which can be sustainable for quite a long time if you consider such low returns. Loiuse is quite confident that her business model will be successful and she’s already given me her prior consent to conduct an interview for my blog after of course I make an investigation on the program and present a review of SilverInvest<\/a> (very soon, so stay tuned for that!). The most interesting feature of the program in my opinion is that together with other e-currencies it’s allowing Credit card deposits to monthly plan (it’s the first time I have seen an investment program that accepts Credit cards as a depositing option). That makes me think SilverInvest<\/a> can be a real investment opportunity. And by the way, you cannot join SilverInvest<\/a> by yourself but only by invitation from an existing member. So please use this link to join SilverInvest<\/a> if you’re interested.<\/p>\n

To finish my post I would like to say that I was paid today from these programs: MegaLido<\/a>, TradersInvestments<\/a>, QuantumInv<\/a>, VolcanoInvest<\/a>, ResidualForexIncome<\/a>, Tradelite<\/a>, SafeAtom<\/a>, GrandEarners<\/a>, LargeSum<\/a>, 12DailyForever<\/a>, MaxShare<\/a>, HermisCapital<\/a> and TopProfitWorld<\/a>. This is all the news for today. See you tomorrow, guys!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
