My name is Paul Charchian, I'm the founder of LeagueSafe, and the president of the Fantasy Sports Trade Association. I'm just sticking my head in the door to say thanks to everyone in the FBG forums for their support for LeagueSafe. On a personal level, it's deeply heartening to see so many...

Thanks!

Updated. Duh.

Many thanks to Joe for permission to post about this. I'm Paul Charchian, founder of LeagueSafe. In light of the Phenoms meltdown last year, LeagueSafe has decided to offer real money leagues through a new line of business, SafeLeagues. Needless to say, the winnings are secured by LeagueSafe...

You make me sound shady. Is there another company owner answering these questions? Fanduel? DraftKings? Anyone? I believe I've answered everything, but if people have questions, that's fine. Like most companies, we put our assets to work. That means that we invest in a variety of no/low risk...

Oh, and as of today, LeagueSafe is open for NFL withdrawals. So, if you're using LeagueSafe (thanks!) you can allocate funds to your winners right now!

I'd like to address PayPal for a moment, because I think there are some nuances to their service that many people are not aware of: 1. Use of fantasy sports funds is against their terms of service. Even though they offer commercial transactions for some fantasy sports sites, they don't want...

I think that's exactly right. When I buy a iphone case from some artists on Etsy, I'm taking a certain amount of risk. The first time you bought from Amazon, 15 years ago, you may have felt some degree of risk. When you pay your FBG subscription, you're operating on the faith that Joe and David...

Yeah, plenty of Charch bashing. Like I said at the outset, I know some people will never be happy with the answers that I provide here. And, there's literally no way to reply to "Sure, you've had millions of transactions without any problems so far, until you don't." It's a hypothetical in...

You bet. LeagueSafe Safeguard #1: Unlike traditional payment methods, we can resolve a league payment issue, such as commissioner fraud, at the end of the season. At that point (4-6 months after you've paid), you're past the dispute window for credit cards companies, banks, and PayPal...

That's exactly correct. I couldn't have phrased it better myself. Thanks again for the conversation everyone.

Thanks. I'm certainly interested in collecting user feedback on that topic. Of note, the 3% that we collect on credit card deposits mostly goes back to the credit card companies. And we get some resistance from customers who assume that we're keeping the 3% (Visa doesn't let us actually say why...

I'm always available to FBG members. I adore Joe and David, and have a ton of respect for the FBG members. As some of you have noted, I've posted into these forums before. And I'm always happy to answer your questions about LeagueSafe. Many of you have PMed me here. I welcome your...

Of course I remember the show, Rich. I still talk to Howie all the time! I'm glad to hear that you're still playing. Good luck getting the last guy you need for the Twin Cities league.

Good luck with the Twin Cities league. Thanks for using LeagueSafe!
