Change in myLot Payment methodology

Tweet

Effective November 17, 2008, Moneybookers is suspending service for US customers who send money internationally. Unfortunately, this means we must suspend payments to all myLot users who can only receive payment through Moneybookers. Effective immediately, if you live in any of the countries listed at the end of this message, you will only be allowed to receive payments through PayPal and must enter a PayPal email address in your payment preferences. If you originally had the option to choose between Moneybookers and PayPal, you no longer have this option and will only be able to receive earnings through PayPal. To verify you situation, please login to your account and click the preferences link at the top of the page. On the preferences page you will see four tabs, first click on the account information tab. In the country of residence field, please make sure you select your country and click update. Next, please click on the payment information tab. Toward the bottom, there is a field for you to enter either your PayPal or Moneybookers email address. If it says PayPal, you must enter a PayPal email address in order to continue receiving payments from myLot. If it says to enter a Moneybookers email address then please do so now as on or about November 14th, 2008, we will send payments to everyone who has updated their Moneybookers email address and has accumulated a minimum of $4.50 in earnings. Anything under $4.50 will not be paid out at this time. Going forward, you can still participate in myLot and continue to earn, but you will be unable to receive payments until such time that PayPal is offered in your country of residence. If you have always used PayPal or have entered your PayPal email address in the past, this issue does not affect you. Our next PayPal payout will be on or before December 15th, 2008, for those people who have accumulated a minimum of $10 by November 30th, 2008. We apologize for this unfortunate event and are constantly working to find alternate payment methods. In the mean time, the only viable payment option available is PayPal. Countries where myLot can send funds via PayPal: American Samoa Argentina Armed Forces Americas (except Canada) Armed Forces Canada, Europe, Middle East Armed Forces Pacific Australia Austria Belgium Brazil Bulgaria Canada Chile China Costa Rica Cyprus Czech Republic Denmark Dominican Republic Ecuador Estonia Finland France French Guiana Germany Gibraltar Greece Guadeloupe Guam Hong Kong Hungary Iceland India Indonesia Ireland Israel Italy Jamaica Japan Korea (South) LAtvia Liechtenstein Lithuania Luxembourg Malaysia Malta Martinique Mexico Micronesia Netherlands New Zealand (Aotearoa) Norway Palau Philippines Poland Portugal Puerto Rico Reunion Romania San Marino Singapore Slovak Republic Slovenia Spain Sweden Switzerland Taiwan Thailand Turkey United Arab Emirates United Kingdom United States Uruguay Venezuela Virgin Islands (U.S.)
