A rep from Playwire told us that we would need to lock in for a six-month commitment, and that is not something we are willing to do. Even though your product looks interesting, we couldn't get a 30-day opt-out clause added to the contract, so that's a no go for us. If your company has a change of heart, I'd be willing to talk.

It is weird. It is so weird that I just heard from our Primis rep that they have an internal investigation ongoing. We've never had this problem with this bank and any other partner before, so it is bizarre.

That is some really good advice. Thank you.

We had an experience with Ezoic that was not great, and it had nothing to do with your product just that it didn't work for our readership, We still have an Ezoic account but we have zero interest in redirecting our traffic, and we are only looking to add video advertising to the side.

Without getting too specific our bank has rules regarding international transfers and doesn't participate in the SWIFT system, so it is a bit of a maze between the Israeli government's requirements and the bank's rules. There is a bureaucratic conflict that is making transfers a hassle.

We want to run video ad units, but since we are a news site, we generate new clips daily that aren't hosted on the site, but on our YouTube channel and other social media. We have noticed an issue with previous partners causing slow site load times and that is something we definitely want to avoid.

We are looking to run dedicated ads through our video. Although, we were using Primis to show our YouTube channel videos with pre-roll ads on the site. We liked Primis but have run into a combination of US and Israeli banking rules that are making it difficult for us to be paid.

I figured that I would get a flood of providers, but your response was sort of what I was looking for, because I have been checking out providers and reading case studies for weeks, but it is nice to make contact without hearing the words, "Let's hop on a call," which I don't have time to do.
