WHAT ARE AZPs ?
AZPs stands for 'A2ZProfiles Points' where 100 AZPs = USD 1.00
A2ZProfiles.com utilizes AZPs in all aspects of operations and transactions on the platform. Every member has an AZP Account which consists of a Main A/C and an Escrow A/C. Every AZP transacted is recorded within these accounts.
Every new member will naturally have a ZERO balance in their AZP Account. In order to allow new members to utilize certain social features of the platform, all members are given an OVERDRAFT LIMIT of 1,000 AZPs. Members can utilize this facility to perform non-premium activities on the platform and the AZP account will initially be in debit or overdrawn. As members earn AZPs from advertiser's eCampaigns, AZPS earned and credited to the member will offset the debit balance and eventually the account will be in credit. Any credit balance can then be utilized to access premium content - subject to the credit balance being sufficient for the premium imposed.

| WHAT ARE PREMIUM SETTINGS AND WHAT ARE PREMIUM SERVICE FEES ? Members can set premiums that are imposed on other members as follows: PRIVATE MESSAGING - in the above table, the Default Service Charge for Private Messaging is set to 1 AZP. This means tha if you wish to send a Private Message to another member on the platform, it would cost you 1 AZP to do so. However, as a member, you can also impose a premium on others for sending you a Private Message. Via the menu option - SETTINGS, you can select the 'AZP SETTINGS' tab to update your Private Messaging Settings. For example, if you want to charge other members 10 AZPs for sending you a Private Message, you would indicate that on the settings page which will then inform you what the platform will charge for this service: this is the 'PREMIUM SERVICE FEE'. You will further be informed of the net amount of AZPs you will receive when another member does message you based on the settings. If you do not wish for this default premium setting to apply to a particular member, you can also override the default setting via the contact's personal permissions setting option. The primary intention behind this implementation is to curb spam. It is no longer free for spammers to target you!
BLOG POSTS - in the above table, the Default Service Charge for adding a blog post is set to 1 AZP. This means that each time you make a blog post, it will cost you 1 AZP to do so. However, you also have the option to impose a viewing fee on others based on AZPs. For example, you may be very knowledgeable in a specific subject matter and many members are interested to read what you have to say about his subject matter; and if you imposed say 10 AZPs per view, then each time a member wants to read the post, it would cost the interested member 10 AZPs. There is a Premium Service Fee for this service as well and when you set the premium, the system will also inform you of the net amount of AZPs you will receive in the event that another member reads your premium blog post.
DIGITAL MEDIA & FILES - similarly you can impose a premium viewing fee for eProfiles you created and uploaded, as well as photos, videos and files. The AZP platform is the first of its kind to offer members tremendous opportunities to monetize their content as they see fit. AZPs earned are fully redeemable for cash via the member's debit card and subsequent withdrawal from ATMs worldwide. It is also possible to redeem AZPs by bank wire transfer to the member's bank account.
