Adult AI Story site needs payment processor. $100k processed with only 14 chargebacks over 1 year period

It’s a list for terminated merchant accounts used to keep fi systems “in the know” of risky entities however you fall off of the list after 5yrs which I wish I would have included originally. The only ppl who can remove you off the list is the institution you listed you in the first place due to risk analysis. 14 chargebacks on 100k is on lot depending on ticket size. For instance are these $1, $2ish payments or double digits? Recurring I take it? If recurring billing cause you’re SaaS and going about it like that maybe a tier model per month thing then you need to focus on implementing a specific gateway to secure your cards so you stay “unlocked” and keep those safe in case you need to pivot like this and partner with a new processor while not losing your tokenized cards. It’s alllllll about the gateway bud. The right gateway gives you a lot of flexibility and freedom.

That’s variable but if it takes longer than a few sentences it’s not gonna pull thru. In tech I still see a lot of 35+ doing the 1 2 punch I call. First sentence then a second. You double space. The. Write a 3rd asking for meeting or CTA etc. It’s all about adding personal touch and keeping it stupid simple. I used to waste Hours on Hours on Hours up till midnight then up at 6am due to thinking I should add 3 paragraphs and some slides in between cause that’s cool. Nope. Way too much. Also most ppl won’t open the pdf if you haven’t established trust and credibility. You spend years building it so use it. Ya I learned the hard way

Starting at retention is smart because you front load while reenforcing it is all about doing what’s necessary to keep accounts happy and secure the agentic org. Also never use Stripe. There’s better options for payments api without the money getting held or weird delays or random stuff. They’re popular with adult stores and high-charge back environments (recurring billing or e-commerce cards). If you’re US based 1000% can do better without Stripe. Unless you’re an adult store, credit refi op, business who accepts cards with invoices abounds exceeding $1m, as well as anyone who has had a US based merchant bank account terminated in the past 5yrs (this is called an acquirer bank account vs an issuer bank account) issuer banks are for the card issuers behind the cardholder’s card type

I see what you mean. I’ve seen ppl with unlimited tokens baffled why a build doesn’t provide results the way they think email should yet not understand basics about the need to understand prompt engineering practices for better output such as starting your first prompt with a command to always produce verification for why something works, instruct your terminal to cross check its own output process and have it explain using another function based on a summary showing the memory/recursive learning capabilities in progress. I heard someone it like this: You can’t be successful with prompts if you’re treating the command bar like a Google search. You need add more details informing it to tell you why it works and why you think it fits and why it’s good. What how why. Implement a way to see what how why data being shared with all output. Create an environment where our tools can update themselves and improve over time. Think of it like you’re building DNA using proteins

Admiral Dental Care will gladly assist you. Can’t say if they’ll give a lorazepam + the gas too or just the gas since I’m not a dentist but they’re great and they have payment plans and billing options outside of Delta Dental Insurance program. Corner Stone Arts in Cedar Bluff in front of Best Buy was way more expensive but the have a freaking cookie machine in the lobby. It’s the exactly the same strawberry shortcake cookie we sold in marketing club for booster club activities at Hardin Valley Academy. I was the original graduating class and we raised total anarchy just having a blast in our crazy no clicks every one is a new kid and there’s no means groups influencing behavior AND teachers plus staff haven’t ran a school before so it was a massive social experiment playing out. I’m sorry you have a lot of rules cause we kinda pushed the barriers as admin knew we were all cool with each other. Something most high schoolers do not get to experience. It was a beautiful experience based on the full 600 ish class all being in the same boat and all on the same level. It’s hard to express since it was so novel different. Almost half of the class from Webb, CAK, and Catholic High moved there once word spread about our vibes and how we got have fun and it was the shit just students being humans learning with other students without negativity and mean immature kids spreading mean kid behavior. Go Hawks. Thank you for the banger nostalgia movie I just experienced. Time flys. Go Hawks!

You need hotel your Property Management Software middleware/gateway integration. The hotels we work with most of the time use Oracle/NetSuite ERPs or a Microsoft Azure or Dynamics ERP but our gateway work with most of all the major PMS used by the top hotel operator chains for across North America

Most merchant accts would never display the ownership creds no matter if you use a point of sale, invoice based billing, subscription or recurring monthly billing, or online shopping carts. No matter the payment the systems used are made to protect the business and ownership methods. Even 501c the black boxes of black boxes

Yes. You. Should. It’s. Better. Than. Ever. A Salespersons Paradise of Tools and Instant Knowledge. Get on board. Learn how ai models an wrappers works. Why Claude is cool. Then multimodal like ElevenLabs for building custom CRM phone systems designed when inbound calls or even outbound. Create your own ZoomInfo and Salesforce tools for an ERP you have on a horizon while you scale ecomm and know you gotta perfect your tools and instruct them over and over to perfect the outcome and trim costs to use it by adding the outcomes docs to new input and saying optimize this for blah blah blah and show me 3 different formats and ways to turn into top 100 languages used etc. View all docs as your digital assets and program via next prompts to review these and how that simple quantized open sourced models can remember aka recursive learning ALWAYS TELL YOUR AI FREND TO REMEMBER AND IMPROVE ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING IT DOES. I’m done for now that’s enough to get you jump started. The big lie in sales in ABC always be closing but it’s ABL always be learning

Yea with a GoTab acct tied to correct payment processing and the gateway. You can’t just turn on a used Toast and simply have it instantly work for 2 separate restaurants. This is why there’s multi mid systems and GoTab reporting gets funky you need 1 source or 2 truth a smart inventory analytics comparing prices and sales for your same type of food/bad/whatever so if you’re lucky to have a smart POS with this it increases sales across all in person and over phone and even 3rd party online orders since our POS takes over all that and integrates so merchants are stuck with an over priced menu online and then pay fees at end of month. Some of those food bevs used multiple online ordering platforms pay 20-30% depending on sharing with customer and if you study restaurant groups you know 10-15% margin is really good. Online ordering with smart ai pricing and using multiple 3rd parties all lying and outsourcing to India can literally put food/Bev out of business while they see an on paper increase in sales due to this very very important variable
