You shrink links - we shrink commissions!

For the next month our commission decreased to ZERO, i.e. you will receive 100% from amounts paid by advertisers!

If you have seen zeroes in the stats while were not signed in, it was just a bug, that is fixed already!

If one user clicks five of my (unique) links within an hour, do I get one click on each ad, or only one click on the first ad?
You will get 5 clicks.

Can you also add euro currency?
Soon I will introduce advanced profile settings. There will be many currency options, including EUR.

Did you get your refund ?

Forget about the scammer tag just never use his services again !

Simples !
I don't understand, why some people want to add a scamer tag to the CoinURL!?
I have not ever missed a payment. Also I do NOT refuse advertisers for refunds, just intend to comply with AML rules of my country.

Do you think it would be better that all customers' funds lost in case of server equipment forfeiture, because someone have used my service to launder Bitcoins from Silk Road? The stability of service uptime and guarantee for publishers about payments for their links has the highest priority for me!

P.S. Is it really so difficult to send exact number of Bitcoins that you want to spend for advertising?

Currency converter available! You can view all amounts in USD at current MtGox rate. Enable it on your profile page.
1788  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: CoinURL not allowing refunds (split from Beware of scammers!) on: May 20, 2012, 09:39:49 PM
My goal right now is just to bring attention to its absurdity. Since I'm forced to spend the rest of my balance on advertising
You are not forced to do so! Provide necessary documents as required by law and your withdrawal will be completed.

Applying AML rules to a purely BC transaction is terrible, imo.
I am planning to expand CoinURL out of Bitcoin and start working with real payment processors, who don't tolerate any loopholes that may be used for laundering. Therefore I want to create an image of my service as purely legal and minimize risks for customers about funds freeze.

Look at StrikeSapphire. They are Bitcoin casino, but strictly obey U.S. gambling laws that prohibit domestic players.

P.S. If you want to start a business some bigger than another pyramid or VPN anonymizer for Bitcoin your definitely must obey legislation of your country, IMHO!
1789  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: CoinURL not allowing refunds (split from Beware of scammers!) on: May 20, 2012, 08:15:40 PM
Just to be clear, because I find this quite interesting, you're arguing that CoinURL is a financial institution?
I think anybody knows that legal status of almost all Bitcoin services is not yet defined...
But serious start-ups, who want to expand their business above Bitcoin and start accepting real currency will always obey laws of country where they reside.

P.S. I want to offer the highest quality of service for CoinURL customers and I intend to minimize the probability of legal action to zero. Situation where authorities can seize equipment and forfeit all funds with suspection to laundering, that will result in loss of ALL clients' funds is absolutely unacceptable for me!

Edit: You keep editing your posts, it's difficult to keep up.
I found exactly that you have asked, therefore updated my post.

Still waiting for an answer to that first question... If you're not on that list, you're not subject to the law.
I think that I have already clearly answered.

Approximate translation:

Article 1-(7):
Financial institutions in scope of this law:
...
h) electronic money organizations

You're not an exchange, and Bitcoin is not a formally recognized currency in Latvia. It's nothing more than a cryptographically signed message.
Webmoney also is not recognized currency, but can be classified as financial instrument, as well as Bitcoin, therefore businesses accepting them must obey AML legislation.

P.S. Soon I am planning to enable other payment methods along with Bitcoin. My reputation as law-abiding business is very important in this situation! As you know, payment processors does not tolerate even attempts of laundering and froze accounts with all funds after any suspicions.

15k EUR minimum threshold is for transactions with physical property (real estate, gold, antiques etc).
Financial instruments (paragraph 4-(b)) does not have it.

For example, there is no official way to anonymously withdraw Webmoney in Latvia. Of course, we have some "gray" traders who will help, but they take all risks on self and charge extra commissions.
You can see rules of major Webmoney exchanger in Riga, wmz.lv (available in Latvian and Russian), they can refuse withdrawals until you provide docs.

IMHO, You can think Bitcoin is out of regulation, but serious people who want to expand their business and start accepting real currencies and credit cards will comply the laws!

You are free now to ask a refund according to the new policy!
I'm not going to give some stranger enough documentation to ruin my life to comply with laws that don't exist.

Can you direct me to the appropriate "legistration" (I assume you mean legislation)?
Latvian AML law:

What Huh I already thought you had your refund !
No attempt has been made to contact me for a refund.
You are free now to ask a refund according to the new policy!

To offer better conditions for CoinURL advertisers and prevent misunderstanding like happened with mcorlett in the future, our non-refund policy was mitigated.

In exceptional cases we can allow advertisers to make a refund. To be eligible for this exception you need to complete verification procedure by contacting the operator and providing an identification document (must contain your photo, e.g. passport or driver's license) bundled with proof of your address (e.g. utility bill, bank statement etc, not older than 6 months). CoinURL operator may also ask additional documents to prove legality of deposited funds.

Still, I think it'd be most appropriate for giantdragon to refund the BTC just this once because mcorlett was confused about the no-refund policy. I'd feel better about trading with giantdragon if I knew he occasionally bent his rules to help out his customers in cases like this.
I would like to refund mcorlett, but I am afraid about possible bunch of other users' refund claims if I make an exception for the one.

To put it in another way, it doesn't exactly make me want to use your service in the future.
It is definitely your right to use or not my service. I don't force anybody to do this!
