Second Tuesday Update

Hello Achieve Community!

You all did it! We have our processor! We will be starting up again!

And of course I have more information to share with you about this whole process.

The reason we aren't telling you who our processor is, is this.
1. When you sign up with them from your Achieve back office you automatically sign up with your account attached to us so that we can pay you.
2. It takes time for you to get approved with a payment processor. They need to know you are who you say you are - it's online processing, they can't see you, they don't get your signature, so they check your information.
3. If you go sign up with them on your own, you have to wait to be approved before you can attach your account to us in your back office and then you have to go through the process again to attach your account so we can pay you.

We ran into this problem with Payoneer when we started. What happened was this, people went and signed up with Payoneer and then didn't get approval or their cards for 2-4 weeks and couldn't attach their accounts to us to get paid. When they finally got their accounts approved, or their cards, it took more time to have their accounts approved again and attached to us. Most people were fine, but some went through the matrix before they had their accounts and had to wait to get paid until they were approved and attached to us.

Just doesn't work.

Here's what does work.

1. We don't tell you who it is until they are programmed into our system.
2. You go into your back office and sign up with them through our system and get approved.
3. You get paid.

When you go into your back office to sign up with the new processor (and everyone will need to do this - don't worry, they can handle it) - you will see the payment options. It's different for every country, so you will just have to make your own choices when you see what is available to you. Usually you will have an option for bank transfer, debit card, wire transfer, or there may be a few other options. It won't be the same for everyone everywhere. We can't tell you what your options will be - just wait until you can sign up please, and see what is offered to you.

More information about the banners. Some of you seem to think that we needed the Banners to get approval, that is not true, it wasn't required, and as I said in an earlier update, we always have added new products every month. What we do want for our processors and for our program is to show, into the future, that people are using our products, and banners are an easy way to do that - we can easily see that you are using our products every time you make a banner. So when that is ready, make banners! That will keep our processors happy.

Now about the timing. Here is the choice we have. And I would like you to comment on whatever platform you are reading this from - the blog or the Facebook page you found it on.

Since we won't have the coding for the Payout Processor until the end of the week, our programmer won't be able to attach it and test it until next week.

We could

1. Start up in a few days allowing new members to sign up and current members to repurchase and then everyone could sign up for the processor next week.

Or

2. We could wait until everything is done and then start up.

Tell me Achieve Members, what would you like us to do?

Thank you all.
To your success
Kristi
