Probably not.
If you're thinking what I assume you're thinking, KS takes a 5% cut on TOP of what AP takes. Plus, KS reviews (human eyes) every project before it can go live on the site.

I thank you for sharing it; it has a lot of potentials so I'll keep an eye on it hoping they will add credit as funding source while still keeping it free.

For now, they have to establish credibility and trustworthiness. I will not just give them my ID and PW to my bank account just because they promised me it's safe.

because it is easy to set up multiple AP accounts per SS#, but there was a perception that it increased the risk that all of your accounts would get shut down.

I think you're right. NO need for them to close accounts and it will be up to the individual whether or not they will continue to use it.

not surprising this is ending.

surprising it lasted this long.

Anyone having trouble making payments this morning?

Yes. When I confirm payment, the button just greys out and nothing happens. No temp auth. going to the card.

I can get to the last page, but the confirm button won't work. Tried in both Chrome and Explorer with different accounts and different cards.

Nothing.

Same here. Maybe the system is overloaded this morning. I think I will just wait a few days.

Got the same thing.

Withdraws worked ok.

It is a Google Chrome problem, just use firefox and it works.

Confirm button wouldn't work in Safari but worked fine in FF

Thanks. Firefox worked. I had tried both Explorer and Chrome, so I figured it was a AP thing.

Hopefully this means I still get to use it for Oct pmts as well.

WOOT!!!!

I looked at my history. I've been running this since Sept. 2010. 4 years of glory. And somewhere in the neighborhood of $150k of MS. Damn, gonna miss AP. It had been around so long, I stopped worrying about it being shut down.

In all that time I only got 1 hold. Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered.

this is the end, my friend..

it was nice while it lasted.

Agreed this is bad news. But I'm intrigued by the fact that he Terms already prohibited personal accounts from receiving card payments. Relevant screenshots here:
