I was just checking out Mediashakers and read this on their website:
[i]
We are proud to offer a new service to our publishers. Mediashakers would like to introduce you to a new and efficient way of getting paid, the Mediashakers Mastercard® Debit Card.
Instead of waiting for payment to arrive and paying high tranfer fees you will receive a Mediashakers Mastercard® Debit Card that will automatically be prepaid on the 5th of each month. This debit card can be used anywhere that honors credit cards worldwide.
What are the benefits?
[list]
[]No more Paypal fees.
[]No more late wire transfers.
[]Mastercard®, is accepted worldwide.
[]You can get cash at any ATM around the world 24 hours a day.
[*]Online access to your account allows you to easily verify your balance and transaction history.

Are there any other ad networks that offers this service? This would be the ideal solution for me. I’m currently receiving all payments through Paypal. But I’m planning on moving to an island in the Caribbean. You cannot receive payment with a Paypal account on this island! You can only send payments! So if all the ad networks starts doing this, then I will have no problem at all!
Wow, that sounds like an ingenious way to pay people. I still prefer the actual paper check and use that with most networks, but this sounds promising.
I am actually warming up to this direct deposit thing. Only two of my networks support it, but I think it will catch on to all eventually. Debt card is nice, but to have to go to an ATM to get the money, just not what I am looking for. But agreed. Interesting concept though.
But you don’t need to go to the ATM if you have a debit card? You can just pay with your debit card in the stores. I think nearly everyone accepts debit/credit card these days.
Mediashakers is an offshore company. This is most likely illegal in the United States for US Citizens in so many ways – also, remember if they are setting up the account, you dont own the account, they do…
If you can’t paypal to that island there is a reason…
The Mediashaker’s MasterCard is a great way to get paid. It is totally 100% legal in fact it is a US company that issues the card. We have publishers in the US, Canada and Internationally that can use their monthly earnings by paying with this card.
Contact us for more.
That’s excellent. I’ve been running ads from mediashakers since October of 2008 and I still have not received payment. I have also used the contact form on your website for other related issues with no avail. Can you please assist me and let me know what’s going on? I just would like some help here…
Just wanted to let you know that we have hundreds of publishers worldwide already getting paid with the Mediashakers MasterCard.
Makes payments much easier and access to funds is unmatched.
Mediashakers,
One of my friend has reached Its minimum payment limit. He had to be paid on 5th of this month (Feb, 2009). But No payment to him so far. He contacted you too several times but No reply and all in vain. I am also using your ads and making handsome money But I also contacted you for an Info but No reply to me too. I am afraid you will do the same on my payment as you are doing with my friend.
I and my friend has to be paid via MasterCard.
