The last time I released this, we (my members and I) brought in 587 members at $29.95 per month and generated $17580.65 in monthly revenue the first week!
And then PayPal froze my account…
They told me, on the phone, that they do not allow ANY type of affiliate marketing programs, business opportunities, or anything that has to do with making money online (those were his exact words). He also said that he didn’t see anything wrong with my business model. But it wasn’t his decision to make.
I nearly cried when I saw all that income disappear as PayPal automatically canceled all the subscriptions. Not only that, but every subscription for two of my other continuity programs were also canceled totaling over $15,000 in personal recurring income.
PayPal also kept the money for 6 months. I just got it back a few weeks ago. And I’m not the only one. Dozens of well-known marketers have permanently limited PayPal accounts (in other words banned for life).
So needless to say, I DON’T recommend PayPal as part of your long-term business strategy.
Okay, enough ranting (you can read about it in my previous post).
Let’s get to the point of this email…
I’ve been in the lab, resurrecting Direct Pay Profits with a brand new system completely integrated with a company called AlertPay.
The cool thing about AlertPay is that they actually review your site before allowing you to accept credit cards. And they state in their terms of service that they accept affiliate marketing programs, make money products, and business opportunities (even MLM).
I even called AlertPay and told them what happened to me and they gave me assurance that I would have no problem now or in the future. NICE!
That said, let me tell you what this puppy does…
It allows members to promote products for 100% instant payments, build a customer list, and generate recurring income through a built-in continuity program. It even follows up and cross-sells all your products for you.
And it’s all automated! No website necessary! We even handle the customer support!
I’ve also added a viral aspect to the continuity program to explode your monthly income!
Now, about the beta testing…
I need people to sign up, test this out for me and give me some feedback. Next week, when people click the Join Now button on the sales letter, they will pay $29.95. But I’ve temporarily set it up to allow you free access. Just click Join Now and and you’ll be taken to a signup page.
Here’s what I need you to do…
Go through the steps to sign up for an AlertPay account so you can accept credit cards. Then set up your IPN so all of your sales will be recorded in your back office. And just let me know if you have any questions. I will personally be in the support center to help you.
Thanks! I really appreciated it. And I look forward to building a nice, phat, recurring income with you that PayPal can’t take away! LOL
Here’s the link: http://directpayprofits.com
I’ll also be checking here if you have any comments or general questions.
i’ve already been using alertpay for some time now. actually, was waiting for you to add this to surefireprofitsystem also. i’ll set this up and test for ya derrick…no prob
Hi
Your new program looks very interesting, but I have one question. Although you say we can sign up just now for free and get Alertpay organized etc., I would like to know
if we are actually joining for free, or when we would be expected to start paying the
$29.99 fee.
Thanks
Hi Rita, all beta testers will get the first month free. Everyone else (your referrals) will have to pay the first month and you make $20 every month sent directly to you.
Hey Derrick:
Everything went well with the AlertPay setup. How do beta testers get the first month free? Where do we sign up because our – at least my – back office is wanting to charge the full price.
Thank you much. Having lots of fun, by the way, with the Facebook Optin App.
Iya Ifalola Omobola
I’m still waiting on AlertPay to fix their system.
Thanks Derrick. I’ve bought a lot of your products in the past. I’ve set everything up. Is this for beta testing? Or just set up to join when it launches?
Thanks,
Tim
Hi Tim, it’s a beta test and set up for the launch.
ok, just did a test purchase and it said…
Minimum purchase using your credit card must be greater than or equal to $2.00 USD.
Everything worked on my setup, just fyi there.
Thanks
all set up Derrick, looking forward to seeing this go HUGE next week!

Derrick, considering the current situation that Alert Pay is still not processing MasterCard and Visa and there is no news about this since Nov. 4, isn’t this a bit risky to launch at this time?? Many programs are on hold and hurting due to this situation.
LuAnn, AlertPay expects the problem will be fixed next week. You can read about it here: http://blog.alertpay.com. They also said, once it’s fixed, there will be no issues or service disruptions.
The plan is to get members to sign up and set up their AlertPay accounts before they have to pay. That can take a few days. I’m rolling this out slowly, instead of doing a huge launch. That way, I can give people better service and make improvements as we go.
Well, Derrick, they said “next week” last week!!
I understand that some may need to set up their accounts and that can take time. Many are not willing to fund their accounts with a pre-paid American Express card. An alternative.
I went through the sign up process, and as is usual, the flow was easy to follow. You just complete the information and then click next. I had a little trouble with AlertPay, but then I always have a little trouble with AlertPay. I had to accept wire transfer in British Pounds even though I live in the United States. I’ll check back later for the verification process as I’m not sure where I will get my documents scanned and emailed to them. Maybe I can mail them. I’ll find out. Anyway, it’s not a difficult process to complete. I’ve been an affiliate and customer for years with you, and the reason is that you don’t do silly fads, fake software, etc. Everything is a straightforward simplified system that if you just follow the steps and do what needs to be done, you will make money. I’m really looking forward to this. I need some quick cash for Christmas! LOL. I love your stuff!
Thanks Jinger, you can go to Kinko’s and scan your documents to a pen drive. Then import to a PDF and send that via email.
Hey Derrick,
Got signed up. Already had AlertPay so that part went quickly. The ending process was a little confusing as it actually took me back to the signup page again, not a signed in page.
Also, the web address in the email I received did not work:
“https://DirectPayProfits.com”
But it works ok without the “s” in https.
I’ll send some traffic and see what happens!
Charlie
Hi Charlie, this is an actual beta test. We’re not ready to roll yet. So hold off on the promotion unless you want to invite a few friends to the beta test.
Derrick,
This is a great offer! Thanks for letting us beta test this great offer! We will get to work!
Hi,
i did the test purchase
but at the time of the method payment (with o$ balance) the issue was:
Due to temporary difficulties we cannot process MasterCard/Visa transactions at this time. Please try again later, or use an American Express card.
but without problem I went ahead… but Alertpay said that the process can’t be done because i need to purchase for 2$
Alexandre, I changed the test price, so it will work now.
yes it is ok now ! everything well, we are in the starting blocks and waiting for your….. GO !
Same here: Minimum purchase using your credit card must be greater than or equal to $2.00 USD.
Hi Bill, I changed the test amount to $5.
Hi Derrick,
I signed up for an account with Direct Pay Profits, only to go to AlertPay to sign up there and be given the message that AlertPay is not doing business in New York at this time (paraphrase)
I have heard that at least one other state is not able to use AlertPay. Any idea what is going on there or if they plan to add NY? It seems to make little sense to keep all those people in such a huge state from doing business through them. I was disappointed with this news as they seemed like a potential good alternative to PayPal. Also, I really wanted to participate in your program.
Thanks for your time. Have a great day
Tracy
Tracy, I heard about New Hampshire. But New York? That’s crazy. I’ll give them a call and see what’s up.
Hey Derrick,
Paypal just did the same thing to me:( Needless to say this is perfect timing my friend, I will be more than happy to help test it out for you.
Cheers,
Trish
Alright, I just set up everything now how do we start making this work
Isaiah, we’ll be ready to roll next week. I’ll show you more as I get each part finished and tested.
Hey Derrick,
Tried to setup an Alert Pay account and got this message:
AlertPay does not offer its service in New York at this time. We apologize for the inconvenience.
crap.
Ha Nando
If you’re willing to spend a few buck I can probably
show you how to get around it.
Let me know
Rodney
Hey Derrick,
Already had an Alert Pay account and went through the steps to add Direct Pay Profits. Looking forward to everything. All the steps completed except now on Direct Pay Profits site it tells me that I must activate the system and that is done by paying the $29.95. It then says nothing can be done until Monday. So what will happen Monday on this “free” account?
Hi Randy, I’m giving all beta testers the first month free. So it will be a 30-day trial, then $29.95 per month after that. The products I’m setting up for you are worth a lot more than that.
Here’s an example: http://directpayprofits.com/products/kindlepublishingsystem
I beefed up the sales copy. It’s completely set up for you. The money goes straight to your AlertPay account, you get the customer leads, and we handle the customer support. Pretty sweet, eh?
I am already using Alertpay. Made modifications for DirectPayProfits. System worked great.
What happens next? I am ready to rock n roll.
I have been using your FanPageTraffic with some success. Hope this works as easily.
We open next week. I’ll keep you posted on the progress.
Just Sit It Up Only Took About 10mins All Good Working Fine
Will Wait and see what Alertpay Say in Site Review
cheers robby14
I’m on Alertpay already, waiting for approval of the new site.
thanks Derrick!
All set up and good to go. No problems,
already had CC acceptance in Alertpay.
No problems with the test purchase.
Cant’ wait for the relaunch. Nice work
Derrick, now we need Alertpay in SPS……..
Hi Derrick.
I have signup, test everything with my Alertpay account and it’s done well. Thank you.
Hi Derrick,
Thanks for this opportunity.
I have go through all the processes and ending with the message box said: “Thank You for Visiting! The Site Will Open Next Week.”
Be blessed.
Yes Isyaias, I’m still tweaking and testing. Will keep you posted on my progress.
do you have ppc ads for us to use? I see keywords but no ads for us to try.
Hi Michelle, there are social media ads you can use. But every site has different requirements and/or restrictions. The best thing to do is type in related keywords and look at existing ads for ideas.
Hi Derrick.
Here is my email from Alertpay.
You have successfully completed your Website Review for directpayprofits.com?refid=168. Please allow 1-4
business days for a decision.
Have Successfully updated the IPN information also.
Ron Hotchkis.
directpayprofits.com?refid=168
Hi Ron, make sure your account is also verified. Some members are reporting website approval in one day.
I have had an account with Alertpay for sometime now and
was hoping you would finally come around. Good reddens (Pay”no”Pal)
and a little advice to Todd, 2CO is almost as bad as (Pay”no”Pal)
OK…
I just Logged in to Alertpay and set up the new website but when I went
to set up the IPN for that site I couldn’t. May have to
wait tile the site is approved. I’ll try the test purchase as so as I can.
Rodney
Hi Derrick
I got to the credit card validation part and then received an error message:
“Due to temporary difficulties we cannot process MasterCard/Visa transactions at this time. Please try again later, or use an American Express card. ”
Will try again in a while
cheers, Keith.
Sorry about that Keith. Guess this was bad timing for a beta test. It was working last week. I’ll give them a call.
I had same problem and got the same response.
“Due to temporary difficulties we cannot process MasterCard/Visa transactions at this time. Please try again later, or use an American Express card. ”
H Sam. AlertPay is working on that. Read this article: http://www.blog.alertpay.com. We may have to postpone the launch.
OK…
Just got everything set up and run the test purchase
and got a thumbs up. Really quick and simple.
I’m ready to make some mula with this puppy!
Rodney
Hi
Thanks for your offer. I have just 1 -2 question:
OK, you give us the access gratis, ….but next month should I pay something ?
You say to be active must have 2 persons in my down line…and if I don’t have?
If I don’t pay your monthly fees is for beta tester access free for life?
Regards,
Chris
Hi Chris, I’m giving beta testers the first month free (that’s a month after we launch).
You don’t have to be qualified to receive the regular $20 payments from your direct referrals. You just need to pass your 2nd and 4th referrals to qualify to have referrals passed up to you. Also, product sales go directly to you and are not contingent on qualification.
Hi Derrick,
just signed up but can’t verify with a mastercard/visa at this moment. Will try again later and let you know how it goes,
Victor, you can verify be phone and submit your drivers license and proof of address.
Hi Derrick,
All went well…
Your IPN Test was Successful!
Looks good and I’m glad you’re back with this site.
I’ve got an idea for you and Todd – I’ll let him know.
Take care.
Thanks Brad. Skype me.
Already have business verified Alertpay – test purchase worked perfectly…..
I used AlertPay for several years. This is what I got when I tried to add my new bank account recently,
We apologize, but withdrawals by bank transfer to United States are not supported.
Short and sweet, huh?
Hey CapnMatt, you can receive a check in US dollars, an they offer prepaid credit cards in 9 different currencies. You can view the details here: https://helpdesk.alertpay.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=52
When using my referral link should my name appear below the “Join Now” form were it says “referred by”?
Thanks for an awesome looking program!
Dan
Hi Dan, I found the problem. Try it now.
Hi,
Signup with AlertPay and link my Direct Pay Profits.
Everything is ok…
Thanks
Martin
It will work fine if you have funds in your alert pay account already. If not I am not sure. My test worked fine even without the site being approved
Hello Derrick
Tested and everything is ok. Just waiting for the approval.
Respectfully
David Jackson
AlertPay doesn’t provide service within New Hampshire either.
Rashell
Hi Rashell, someone else mentioned that. I find that strange. Maybe NH has some restrictions. I’ll ask about it next time I call AlertPay.
Everything worked just as described. Only thing was the account verification has changed because they are having issues. You have to do the phone verification and then submit a support ticket and attach your DL as proof of who you are.
Quick question – as beta testers, will we get access to the direct pay profits monthly program for free or will we need to start paying once it’s opened up next week?
Thanks,
Jean
Thanks for the info Jean. I opened up a corporate account and had to submit multiple documents. What a pain. But you only have to do it once.
Beta testers will get the first month free.
I bet it wasn’t as big a pain as when Pay”no”Pal held your money.
At least Alertpay checks you out before letting you sell instead of
waiting tile you get thousand in the account then shut you down
and say no, no, no, you aren’t allowed to the that.
Thanks Derrick for setting this up with Alertpay. Can’t wait for
you to say GO.
Rodney
Hey Derrick:
I just got everything setup and it worked great.
Your instructions were easy to follow. It was very
quick and easy to setup.
Another Home Run Derrick.
Dave
Thanks Dave. I think it will be a Home Run for all of us!
I signed up with Alert Pay and tested everything…it all went fine. I really appreciate the step-by-step instructions presented for new members. That will certainly be helpful for all new users and reduce the refund rate from those who get frustrated with setting up accounts.
Thanks Rhonda. I will also create some video. But wanted to get any bugs out first.
Got through it all ok, I think.
When I finished the transaction, however, it sent me to a wordpress blog for DirectPayProfits. Now what? I do not see how I can edit this blog. (when I click login on the WordPress page, it fills in the form, but username is invalid.) Is it mine? Do you have posts for us to enter here?
I also went back to disable test mode in AlertPay, and got this message. Is this correct?
“Successfully updated the IPN information. Please note that your subscriptions created in “Test Mode” will be cancelled as “Test Mode” is now disabled.”
This looks great! Can’t wait to start promoting!
Christy, this is my private blog and is not connected with Direct Pay Profits, besides the fact that I’m announcing the re-launch here. The message you got from AlertPay is correct. But only affects subscriptions that were created in test mode.
AP Approved today… IPN all setup, ready to roll!
Thanks Thomas. We go live next week. I’ll keep you posted.
Just Got Word Back From A/Pay
All OK
AlertPay Balance
Visa
MasterCard
American Express
Your payments will be held for 7 days before they will be released to your account. Please note that hold times are standard for all AlertPay sellers and depend on various factors including account age and industry. Holds are necessary to cover chargebacks and enhance the security of our system. This time period may be subject to change after you have established your business with us.
We have changed your business category from Business/General to Multi-Level Marketing/Referral Marketing . This is to ensure that you are paying the fees that are appropriate for your industry.
Based on your business category and the possible risks associated with it, we have also changed your fee type from Personal Pro/Regular Business to Restricted Business.
cheers robby14
@Robert Mcatamney, this is listed as a referral marketing business because of the reverse 2-up program.
I’m in and all tested OK from the UK.
Derrick, just a few questions:
With regard to the verification process, do you know if I’ll be charged if I do a Bank Transfer verification?
As Beta testers is there anything specific you want us to test?
What types of products will we be receiving to sell?
Looking forward to getting a lot of $$$$ out of this system…..
Alun, you can view the fees here: https://www.alertpay.com/en/fees.aspx
Right now, we’re just testing the setup process. I will keep you updated.
Here’s an example of one of your products: http://directpayprofits.com/products/kindlepublishingsystem/
Signed up with Alert Pay and the IPN testing works fine.
Did a test purchase and it works.
What else do you want us to test?
When can we start sending out the promo-emails?
But I have problem with Alert Pay verification which kept on giving “Invalid Billing Address” when adding a Visa Credit Card.
You can start promoting next week when we go live.
Hi Derrick,
Found out that the shortened Referral Link generated on the Promo Page is incorrect.
When I use the “Direct referral link” on the original site, tinyurl.com, I get a different shortened referral link.
Please check.
Cad You Send Your Last Update deleted by Misstake
Thanks robby14
Derrick, I’ve have a DirectProfits account and a downline in the past. Shall I still sign up again?
Also, I had AlertPay account for a long while now but never could use it because still could not verify it… I just completed another verification step – all together completed two now ( it says: Verification – Complete 2 of the 3 following personal verification procedures) It shows two steps completed and it still tells me my account is not verified… why it is?
Egor, this is a new system. You need to get your AlertPay account verified. Try phone validation and sending a copy of your drivers license and mail.
Ok, I’ve setup a totally fresh AlertPay account and everything is working. Then I clicked on Activate not and I said Thank you1 website will be open next week. Is it what suppose to happen?
Now, what do I do next? Do I start promoting it to my list using the promo emails and other tools or do I wait till the site goes live?
Egor, wait till the site is live. I’m concerned about AlertPay not accepting Visa/MC. So we may have to postpone the launch. Read more here: http://blog.alertpay.com
just signup here.I am amazed as why not many Asians will not jump on this opportunity.I will definitely promote it to my friends and colleagues. Greetings from Malaysia,Hope I enjoy the adventure here.Will you provide customer support?
Again thanks for a providing wonderful system here
Hi Derrick,
I already use Alertpay IPN with an other script. (WHMCS)
Is there a way to have a second one activated to be able to add the directpayprofits web site?
Hi Marc. Unfortunately, no. You can open a new account or upgrade to a business account and create a new business profile. Each profile can have a separate IPN URL.
Hi Derrick,
Just set up and all went well! Can’t wait to get this rolling!
Thanx,
/robert
Hey Derrick!
Thanks for this opportunity!
I already had AlertPay so making the changes and updates to my account was very easy. Already did the testing and it works fine! When should we be able to start promoting our link?
BTW… great idea! Thanks!
Still waiting on AlerPay to accept Visa/MC.
Just wanted to update you that I just got an email from AlertPay accepting my new website (for DirectPayProfits) so I am VERY READY to start promoting my link!!!
BTW… they mention on the email that they do accept Visa, Master Card and AMEX:
You may accept the following payment methods through your website:
AlertPay Balance
Visa
MasterCard
American Express
Looking forward to starting soon!!!!
Best,
Eduardo
Derrick,
I signed up with Alert Pay. Things seemed to go smoothly, but I’m wondering
if I should have put that a 3rd party would be using the account, or that I was
the only one that would be using the account. I’ll have to call them if I did it
incorrectly because the form doesn’t go back to that area. Which should it
have been?
You will be the only one using the account.
i don’t live in America can i join
If you have an AlertPay account. The money goes directly to you.
Hi Derrick,
Alert pay stated that they do NOT accept services in New York at this time.
Sorry.
They don’t have a license to operate in New York, New Hampshire, Arkansas, or Kentucky. But they’re working on it.
hi derrick,a kenyan lady here im yet to purchse your products but will purchase affliate cash secrets,or one that u will advice considering im in a country where we know nothing about affliates,would love to join the beta test whats the deal.
Hi Derrick,
I just signed up. Had no issues at all. I already had an Alertpay Personal Pro account and it all went smoothly. I did a test purchase and no problems there either. Looking forward to the launch. Looks like you put allot of work into it, and I’m impressed.
Charles
Hello, I was wondering if this system work in oversea, Japan and Asian market.
Also, with the alerpay, the system is not working now..
what should we do ?
Plus, if I would like to help you to convert some package into local language,
Japanese and chinese, can we discuss in details ?
best wishes
Jarvis
AlertPay keeps saying “Soon” but I’m not convinced, so I’m considering a different solution.
Can we start promoting yet?
Derrick,
Your Direct Pay Profit system looks and sounds GREAT. There seems to be two pieces of the puzzle missing…and that is training and or instruction on how to get traffic to our site(s) and how we build a list using this system and the monthly products… I listened to your recent recording in the post above this post about list building and I was supprised I did not see that included in the Direct Pay Profit system.
Hi Derrick,
DPP looks very good indeed. Can’t wait to start promoting (is it open yet?!)
Just a couple of things to clarify please…
1. When I submit my website for approval at Alertpay, should I just use the affiliate link you provided or submit my own full domain I was planning on using to redirect to the affiliate link you gave me? I’m fine either way, but good to know what you suggest would be best.
2. Though the DPP site itself is nice and straightforward to understand, I kept stumbling over how the 2 up worked. Perhaps there could be a better/easier way of explaining it?
3. Just to echo the last post really – for new referrals you bring in, should there be some training (3 – 6 minute screen cam video/s perhaps?) to help folks get hold of the idea fast, that we can just refer folks to look at. Could use the vid as part of the prospecting as well perhaps?
Anyhow, that’s enough just now Derrick, but great job. Love the product, the pricing seems spot on for what folks will be able to afford. We’ve been waiting a while to get something that ticks all the boxes like this in UK, sure it will fly.
I am just waiting for my bank transfer (from UK) to go through for final Alertpay verification, then good to go. When can we start promoting again?
Thanks
Dave
Hi Dave,
1. The domain that you submit will be enabled to accept credit cards. So you need to submit the exact URL that in my instructions.
2. I will be making videos once everything is set in stone.
AlertPay is unable to accept credit cards or US Bank transfers. So we’re stuck until that happens.
Hi Derrick,
Thanks for your reply.
1. I should have struck that question out – after I’d posted I saw the instructions inside DPP, very clear, duh!
2. I’m in UK and Alertpay were very good.
They helped me set my bank up fast, verified one step via the phone test, now I just have to wait until my wire transfer from my bank goes through, bit of hassle this end, ‘cos my bank make it fiddly, requiring a signature by hand!
Anyhow, all is on track. Just a little patience now.
Keep up the good work,
Thanks again,
Dave
I can’t believe the reason paypal froze your account. What you are doing is exactly
what paypal is there for. I guess they want to sabotage their own company. They
think just like the Congress and that is, How can we destroy America today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
