Hi there,

Sorry, we are waiting for Paypal's approval of using their new API, Paypal X. Therefore, we are now only recruiting experts to join us. That is why there's no requests there just yet. Once we are ready to go, we will push it and let people to post requests and arrange sessions.

Cheers

Josh

Is it realy a good idea to lure in experts to find an empty page? I took the time to register and so on to take a look, but only to find empty listings, now i will most likely forget the site and never come back.

sorry, I put the note at the end of my post. We have not launched our website yet and that is why the site is empty. I was just sharing a post in my personal blog and did not really expect great responses like this.

Maybe new to to you, but X came out in 2009.

nono, X verifies start-ups who are using them. We cannot use them without their approval. We have submitted the application. Once we get that from them, we can then make our site live.

You are relying a great deal on paypal approving you. I hope you have a backup plan.

Their Pre-authorised payment and parallel payment fit our model perfectly. Our CTO knows them pretty well. We think it is the best option for our initial stage. Once we scale, we will look for more payment options.
