Shannon wrote back and explain the problem. I’ll quote directly from her email.
“We have been experiencing difficulties with the IPay system (the problem was on their end, not ours). To make a very long story short, they grew much faster than they were able to handle. This was largely due to the number of companies with US clients coming on board.
We patiently waited for the kinks to be worked out but unfortunately that took much, much longer we could have possibility anticipated. IPay have asked us to apologize to our clients on their behalf.”
“The Activa cards were issued only to the first 13 completed applications. We ran into many difficulties getting our questions answered by Activa as posed by both ourselves and on behalf of the affiliates. We placed this method on hold until we could get some communication going and problems dealt with. We will most likely resume sending the applications to Activa after a few more successful experiences. We will notify each affiliate if and when this takes place.”
