Keeping your products safe - Pirating

[DanSound]

Another usually overlooked factor is payment processor with good anti-fraud protection. In most cases pirated plugins are bought with stolen credit cards. Once we switched to a payment processor with better anti-fraud, we see less pirated products (and less chargebacks).

@DanSound Interesting, do you recommend one in particular? Is PayPal a good pal?

[Dan Korneff]

@ustk it works great for me. Any new link that pops up is dead within a day.

@ustk We're using Fastspring, they have integrated PayPal so I have no experience with PayPal as a main payment processor.

@ustk I got no problems so far using paypal. I also use stripe for credit card payments and they have good security/verification processes. I got a few payments in the past which were refused due to suspicious activity. They also use 3D secure verification if the user's bank supports it.

@Dan-Korneff can you disclose roughly a price range when using their service ? (or maybe you're under NDA...?)

[ustk]

@DanSound @Matt_SF I'm currently implementing Paypal, and since they offer credit card payment I'll probably use it instead of bothering with two solutions.

I asked Tracksaur for their price plan. Answer: Prices are set individually, provide more information about your product and I send you more information and offers...
No plans, prices made on how you look, do this in France and you'll go to jail in no time

Haha, darn right... Ok thank you for the info :thumbs_up:

At the beginning I intended to use PayPal only, but some users were confused because they thought they needed a paypal account, even to pay by credit card.

@Matt_SF I just looked at my docs. No NDA. I believe the pricing was quoted on the amount of products. I'm under $200/ month. Well worth it in my opinion.

@Dan-Korneff Ok thank you for the info, indeed it seems to be worth it :thumbs_up:
