Just to get things a bit clearer...
I am in process and discussions with some partners for payment processing.
If things do not come out as we want the model will change.
I will follow the same way mega.co.nz did in the beginning before they get paypal.
Resellers only! Vouchers!
So, in that case there will be a simple "buy a voucher to upgrade" model. The 1 month only plan will exist and each month every user can upgrade using a new voucher.
The base price for commission to the affiliates will be 10€ so the 55% will be as is 5.5€
The price of each voucher though will depend on the reseller. Each reseller will decide how much he want to add as commission for him. So the price of a voucher can vary between 9.99 and 11€ as is today... Each client will decide the preferred reseller to get the voucher from.
I thing this is the best solution if a payment processor for automatic upgardes is not found. It will work for sure. And it may work better with that simple and clear model than the existing one that the processors change all the time
This way, i will just need to find available resellers and this is EASIER than finding a processor Even if they kill 1 reseller there will always be double to replace them.
I promise i will try not to give up. I hate this unfair behavior. Without any LEGAL decision against file hosts, they want to kill the industry. Visa and Mastercard will decide who can exist and who not??? Who are they? The big guys of the planet that decide the destiny of each one of us?
Why Paypal permits mega.co.nz to get payments? Why THEY decide who will become rich and who will stay poor on the planet? It is supposed that FBI closed Kim Dotcom's website. Not filemates nor other competitors. How they decide to give permission to mega and insist not to give permission to filemates???
So, it is absolutely freaky what they do and i will not give up until no other way exists (smart people always find a way)!!! It is not about money. It is about EGO!!!
