I’ve only done this once and it was deposited straight into my bank. However I know that when I do the same with my bank, they never ask for a name.

As per another thread, banks are getting a bit stricter on this though and some won't allow money paid in if that person isn't an account holder there. I guess online bank transfer is ok though.

Amazon
topup  phone is much more discreet, not need email, not need touse bank card. They can pay cash, so not track not risk if they are married or they are bored emailing or use the card! you can manage even "last minute" booking with that

i prefer amazon, as getting lot lot of credit on your phone is not necessary, amazon you can buy things that you need even you ll find deals! but i give options to them...already paying a deposit is not something that many fancy! so need to be easy, discreet and fast!

sometimes happen that very old gents they are a bit scared to pay online! and say to me i hope that will be easy to do!

RE depositing cash into your bank, since the start of April my bank has stopped over the counter cash deposits. I tried to put money in for my nephew and was told this can no longer be done, it has to be done online or by transferring from my account to his.

I'm trying to implement a new rule of paying deposits for advance appointments.
I wanted to write a detailed blog post on my website with an easy and clear step-by-step guide on how to pay.

As I was writing all down, taking screenshots and getting excited about it, I came across Amazon gift card T&C.
They forbid to exchange gift cards for services.  :( Other gift card providers state the same.
And luckily I did some research on here only to find out that AW vouchers can't be used for deposits (so immediately removed a link I put on my profile last night saying 'Pay a deposit'  in full glory :FF ;D , right on time I think...).

Initial idea was to offer deposits paid via:
1. Vouchers: AW and Amazon
2. Gift cards
3. PaySafe codes perhaps, so that they can be used to top up AW

Other ways would be to set up a business bank account and ask for a transfer (it won't be anonymous though).
Or Cash App recommended here on another thread earlier (haven't checked it out yet).

Well, I won't be writing this blog post for sure as it's only asking for trouble.

Are there any other ways of receiving deposits? Do you have any thoughts on this tricky subject?

If you apply for a vanilla business and use your llc you can pay and apply for accounting invoice bookkeeping software. Once accepted, you get a personal biller ( less than 2% transaction fee)Many adult companies do the same, lie that they're a FGD LTD, etc but its really a porn company both paying you, and the discrete billing that shows on clients's billing statement.

Example: You 'sell' sports memorabilia both on the invoice, and under your DBA (doing business as name), but really those £50 footballs is your deposit, lol. Works for me. Zero reversals or chargebacks and I've had it 3-4 yrs. 😏  The client is billed an invoice, they pay using whatever way they choose through invoice, you're notified when they pay or even open said invoice. Takes international cards, too and the invoice partner (of your choice) pays you every 2-3 business days.

1. Request client's email
2. they pay
3. youre notified when they pay
4. booking confirmed.

My advice is simply state the options in your ads, then have a cut and paste text containing bank details, and one in which you explain you need codes from back of plastic card, or to be sent online to your email address.

Most people work it out from there.

If the male species actually read ads vs. contacting asap, lol. I have it in my ad twice and most still act surprised when its booking time.

I really appreciate those who do read and provide the information without being prompted.

Had one reply all surprised at the mention of deposit at time of booking. And that he wouldn’t ever think to pay a deposit  but will ‘consider it’. Thing is. I’ve considered him as a client and how he couldn’t read my first line in my profiles stating “please only contact me if you have read my profile and are comfortable paying a deposit”. And he’s no longer ‘considered’ as a perspective client.
Not only could he not read, his demeanour from letting me know he wouldn’t ever think to pay a deposit to a service provider HE’S contacted in his email put me completely off him.
I have reviews and keep a reputation for a good reason, so it stands for something. Where is his good feedback? And I should cancel my other job in the part of the day he wants to see me. Organise the place to see him. Oh and get all beautiful on a hope and whim from a stranger?  ::)

If a client is picking up a gift card voucher from a gift card stand in a supermarket. For example an Amazon, Uber, apple ITunes, or even a mobile network top up voucher and sending an anonymous person (ourselves) the voucher code on the reverse.

There’s a lot of effort for the gift card providers to come down on singular people for this breach of T & C’s.

Paypal can close account and confiscate money. But for a £20 gift card I doubt it’s going to be looked into much. Who has the time for that? Certainly not these gift card companies.

Eliteone - that's super professional and impressive. Thank you for sharing!

Mirror - I think I will limit the info mentioned on ads that the deposit can be paid in numerous ways with cash or anonymous payments, and to get in touch for further details.

K212 - No, I don't think that Amazon would hound someone for a £20 gift card but it just might be better not to advertise it blatantly?

I'll try to work out a little system of payments (and refunds!, if needed).

(Here's a thread with some info on Cash App https://saafe.info/main/webcamming/best-payment-methods/ )

I Thought so too until I dealt with vanilla giftcards. I'm still waiting on a £100 check (within a 30 day wait time) from them after they shut down my account before I could use it. Had to show receipts, proof of purchase, Passport, and bank statements proving my address.

What about bumping your PG to £50 or £100 and there's your deposit done!

I had my PG at £40 and people were buying all 5 boring photos.
Obviously useless if your not on the infamous AW.
