Is it still ? Are there any CCBill affiliate program still running strong these days ?
Does CCBill still process ok ?
Just curious...
IF cross-sales are not important, go with verotel, because of the approval rates.

I'm ballparking the numbers here but it's

85% - Segpay
80% - Epoch, Verotel
60-70% - CCbill.

From my experience working with some of the biggest brands, and as a one man operation. The difference lies in scrub rates, fraud prevention, and blacklists.

I crunched the numbers for myself, and I came to the conclusion that with a 20-25% cross sale take rate, and $35 PPS, the additional revenue from cross-sales would not make up for the increased approval rates I get with Verotel.

Run your own numbers and see if paying the extra $200/month for NATS, is worth the increased throughput you get with using epoch and segpay, over CCBill. If you expect decent volume, it is.

Paypal - A lot of people pick Epoch for the paypal ability. My tertiary observation is that the paypal benefit is offset by the lower non-paypal approval on epoch over segpay. I find segpay and epoch to be fairly equivalent in terms of overall throughput, and it's a matter of what tax environment you work in, and what rate you can negotiate.
