I just withdrew $1,825 from my Epik Masterbucks account yesterday. I received $1,733.75 into my Paypal account. Notice that the difference was just 5%, not 5% plus 3% Paypal fee. So the real cost of receiving those funds was really only the difference between 5% and the 3% Paypal would have charged me if a buyer had paid me by Paypal. So the net cost to me was really only 2% more than a typical Paypal transaction.
Do you guys know anywhere else that handles your domain sales and provides secure escrow service and takes on the risk of the transaction where you end up getting 98% of what you would have gotten from a direct unprotected Paypal payment from the buyer? I don't.
Also, I have a separate login for my Masterbucks account that keeps an easily viewed record of all my domain sales and withdrawals I've ever done through Epik .
I left half my domain sales proceeds in my Masterbucks account because I have most of my entire domain portfolio at Epik and I can renew my domains at only $8.10 that includes the ICANN fee. That way I can use 100% of those sales proceeds because there is no fee at all from my sales proceeds when I use the money to register, renew or transfer domains into my Epik account. In fact, my Masterbucks balance shows up in my shopping cart as an available form of payment, just like Paypal does. It could not possibly be any easier or more cost effective than paying absolutely nothing to sell my domains with secure escrow provided and have instant access to my funds.
