Psychic Payment Policy
Last Modified: 6/20/2019
This Advisor Payment Policy forms part of the User Agreement and is incorporated by reference herein. Capitalized terms not defined herein will have the meanings set forth in the User Agreement and related policies.
- Psychics.com’s payment responsibilities for Advisor Services you provide are subject to restrictions and limitations. The User who initiates a Transaction with an advisor through the Site is solely responsible for payment of any and all fees for the Transaction. Psychics.com shall not be obligated to pay any Advisor fees for which Psychics.com has not been fully paid by the User or User’s credit card issuer or bank, as applicable. You hereby authorize Psychics.com to collect payments from Users on your behalf for any and all Transactions that you conduct. Psychics.com will credit to your User account the fees collected by Psychics.com less Psychics.com’s connection charges and commissions set forth below, any tax withholdings required by law, and any refunds, discounts, chargebacks, and chargeback fees payable by Psychics.com (the “Net Fees”).
Live Calls.
As an advisor, you may charge Users a price-per-minute fee as part of the listed rate. Psychics.com may collect a percentage of the per minute rate as a connection fee. Psychics.com will retain connection charges for each call in the amount of Psychics.com’s then current connection percentage rate – which is currently 65% of the per minute rate. Psychics.com reserves the right to change the amount of connection percentage retained by Psychics.com at any time.
Paid Mail.
As an advisor, you may charge a fee for responding to the Paid Mail requests that you receive. You must clearly state the fee for responding to Paid Mail in your Mail response. Psychics.com will receive a commission stated in our agreement with you of the Gross Mail Fees. The “Gross Mail Fees” means the fees collected by Psychics.com for each Paid Mail sent from your Advisor address that is accepted by a User. The current Gross Mail Fee for a caller to send a Mail message is $0.25 (twenty-five cents), of which the paid commission is 35% (thirty-five percent). You may increase the rates for mail responses up to $2.00 (two dollars) for mail messages containing only text, and $5.00 (five dollars) for mail containing an attachment, of which the paid commission is 35% (thirty-five percent) of the Gross Mail Fee charges on the message. The Gross Mail Fee for messages sent by You will be paid to your account once the message and fee have been accepted and charged to the caller.
Paid Chat.
As an advisor, you may charge a price-per-minute fee as part of the listed rate for responding to the Paid Chat requests that you receive. Psychics.com may collect a percentage of the per minute rate as a connection fee. Psychics.com will retain connection charges for each call in the amount of Psychics.com’s then current connection percentage rate – which is currently 50% of the per minute rate. Psychics.com reserves the right to change the amount of connection percentage retained by Psychics.com at any time. Advisors will only turn on availability for web chats when they are able and willing to give a reading through the web chat service.
Text Messaging.
As an advisor, you will be paid for every text message that a caller sends to you. The Fee for a caller to send a Text message is $0.50 (twenty-nine cents), of which the paid commission is 35% (thirty-five percent). You will not be paid for any return messages to the caller sent through the paid chat message box. Advisors will only turn on availability for texting when they are able and willing to give a reading through the texting service.
Paid Products.
As an advisor, you may charge a fee for products you sell through your profile. Products can include audio recordings, photos, documents, videos, and webcam. You must clearly state the price for each product in your User listing(s) of which the paid commission is 35% (thirty-five percent) of the Gross Product Fees. The “Gross Product Fees” means the fees collected by Psychics.com for each Paid Product sent from your Advisor account that is accepted by a User. You will absorb all costs incurred for charge-back, and bear all risk of non-payment. You will indemnify, defend and hold Psychics.com harmless of and from any and all liability associated with products you sell.
Special Programs.
Psychics.com may, at its option, invite you to participate as an advisor in special offerings that may include reduced pricing, promotional rates, custom branding, qualifications verification and/or targeted promotion. You do not have any obligation to accept such invitations, however, if you do accept such an invitation, you agree to be bound by the terms set forth in the invitation in addition to the terms and conditions of the User Agreement and the policies incorporated therein.
2. Advisor Fee Remittance.
Psychics.com will distribute Advisor fees to you from your User account. Psychics.com makes payments only in U.S. dollar denominations.
- If you are enrolled in weekly payments by check, Psychics.com will deduct and retain a fee of Two ($ 2.00) Dollars for each check issued to you. If fees that are due to you for any week are less than Fifty ($ 50.00) dollars, Psychics.com will hold the payment until the amount due to the Advisor at the end of any week is at least Fifty ($ 50.00) dollars.

- Lost or returned checks may require a $30 reprocessing fee to be resent.

If the payroll company requests the notarized form or lost check fee, Psychics.com cannot proceed with resending your check payout until those conditions are met.

Verified Advisors
At Psychics.com our goal is to provide someone to turn to when callers need it most. We want every conversation with an advisor to be insightful, and if it isn’t, we offer a guarantee to make it right in the future.
To offer this guarantee, we carefully select some Advisors to be verified and to be featured on our site and newsletters. To earn a verified checkbox, you must meet and retain certain factors in your profile. Below are some of the requirements, but this is not a complete list of factors considered and the verified checkbox on an advisor profile can be added or removed at Psychics.com discretion.
1. Advisor must have received more than 10-star ratings on their account and obtained an average star rating over 4.0.
2. Advisor must not have missed more than 5% of their incoming calls. To avoid missing incoming calls, be sure to only turn on your phone call availability while you are able to pick up and accept an incoming call sent from Psychics.com
3. Advisor must not have received any complaints from callers to the Psychics.com Customer Service team requesting a refund for an unsatisfactory reading.
Advisors not meeting the above requirements are at risk of losing their verified check on their profiles. Repeated complaints, refund requests, or a missed call rate over 20% can prohibit an advisor from retaining their profiles on Psychics.com completely.
How much can I charge for webchat?
We have made changes to the Web Chat Feature on Psychics.com.
When a caller starts a chat with you, you will now receive earnings per minute for your chat instead of each message the caller sends.
To set your rate, from the Account Dashboard, choose the profile that you would like to set your rate for then click the Actions drop-down and select Rates from the menu. You will be taken to the Rates page.
Set your rate (Price Range is $0.50 – $2.00) then click Save.
The paid commision for Web Chats is 50% (fifty percent).
You can make yourself available to receive a web chat at any time by toggling your availability at the top of our site.
On your profile the caller can select “Realtime web chat” and you will be prompted to accept the chat request with the caller within 60 seconds of the request.
***Please note that due to the changes we have made changes to our web chat feature, we have increased the size of the chat window, and have disabled incoming calls and chats until your chat session is over.***

Texting with Psychics
Don’t have enough privacy or time for a voice call with your psychic advisor? Why not fire off some texts to get the quick answers you need right now?
Now you can text psychics right from your cell phone anytime!
To find psychics who are available for texting, set the filter at the top of the advisor’s listings to show only psychics who are “Available for Texting”.
Once you find the perfect psychic to connect with, click the “Text Me” button on their profile.
If you have not yet confirmed your number for texting (SMS) you will be prompted to do so. You can follow these instructions.
Once your phone number is verified, a dialog box will open where you can confirm that you want to start an SMS conversation with the Advisor.
You will then receive a text message to your mobile device after you confirm that you want to start the conversation.
You can reply to this message to send a text to the Advisor.
Some important things to remember when using the SMS feature on Psychics.com.
- Your personal telephone number(s) are never seen by Advisors. Your privacy is assured.
- Advisors can only initiate contact with callers via SMS if the Callers have the SMS feature turned on as available, and in their preferences, they have checked off that Advisors can contact them first by SMS from the “Browse Callers” page.
- If the caller does not have this preference set, advisors can only send a text message if the caller sends one first.
- Texting sends from a 10-digit telephone number ending in 8255. It can and will be multiple different numbers since Caller texts to Advisors must come through as a separate text.
- The number(s) which you receive are not the Advisor’s phone. The number that will also display to Advisor will not be yours.
- These numbers, which all end in 8255, belong to us and do not represent any other person and/or company.
