Will agencies go for it? Mar 17, 2013

There is no reason why not, except their inertia, which is considerable in most cases. Agencies mostly offer a limited number of options for payment, and it will take time for a new one to be included. Did the company actively offer their solution to large agencies?

No sending money from US Mar 18, 2013

Doesn't work for payments from the US, which is my main headache.

Limited number of countries Mar 19, 2013

Unfortunately the service seems to be restricted to basically Western Europe, Canada, and Australia/NZ. The US is not in the list, but hey, someone from the Isle of Man can send you money! You never know where your next client will be located.

Good day. Has anybody already experiences with this payment option other than simply registering for now. It seems to be a good alternative to moneybookers and surely to paypal.

Best exchange rates - not really May 8, 2013

I checked the EUR/RSD (Serbian Dinar) exchange rates at this website and it turned out that 1 EUR = 107 RSD through TranslatorPay, while the official Serbian National Bank rate at the same day reported 111 RSD. It is not a small difference and I believe that not being able to choose the currency in which you wish to receive your payment should not continue to be the rule. Anyway, it seems to be a good platform.
