Hi mylotters... Last time i want to open a paypal account just want to receive payment from Mylot. But when i go through the my 'mylot earnings' section, i found one statement like this: "Our records indicate that you have not yet entered your payment information. Paypal is not available for your country(Malaysia). Therefore you must sign-up for a moneybookers account in order to be paid". So, my question: Is that true that Paypal is not available in Malaysia? Anyone from Malaysia here can answer me? Which is better? Paypal or Moneybookers? Any Malaysian had an experience using Moneybookers before? Now i'm confuse which is better? Paypal or MoneyBookers. Anyone can help me...Thanks...

Oh really? U r From Uganda right? so u receive payment from Mylot using MoneyBookers? So what do you think about Mylot with MoneyBookers? I just came back again after 1 year not active in Mylot..So i need to know the process of payment, since your participation=3969. Is that true? I'm not sure actually. Hehe..Nice to know you then.

I'm from Malaysia too, and not really satisfied with paypal not available here. So I've registered with moneybookers, and so far I check that they can send to banks in Malaysia, as long as you have the SWIFT code for that bank(I have all of them if you want). I haven't done any payout yet so I'm not sure if it works. It looks like it, so I hope it does.

it happened to my too, I just got my first payout trough money bookers and I was forced to use money bookers, anyway I didn't have any problem with money bookers, I think it is enough good, the funny things int that I have a pay pal account, anyway I think it was better because I have not verify my pay pal account, because I don't have a credit card, I have heard about some issues when your pay pal account is not verify, I see that you can withdraw from your money booker account for a very small fee, anyway I didn't withdraw because I wanted to buy a domain name, I did to buy it and there was not any problem, all alright, I am happy with money bookers, anyway I think you don't need to worry for now, just keep posting until you reach the ten dollars that are needed to request the payment, my lot really do payout, I have been in other places and they don't really pay, or it take a lot time to get payout, I reach ten dollars last month and they payed me today, even when it was supposed that I have to wait until 15th of this month.

Hi steve9737, So you get paid once right? Through MoneyBookers...hmmm..if u said like that, can we conclude that MoneyBookers is better than Paypal? But not all of online money making program accept MoneyBookers right? Most of them accept Paypal.. So I should try open Paypal account for other program. But for MyLot i follow your's, MoneyBookers. So minimum payout fot PayPal is $10 right? But if i'm not mistaken for PayPal minimum Payout is $50..Am i right?So congratulation to you steve for your first payment..I need more time to reach minimum payout. Thanks Dude!
