No, I'm not stupid or retarded, just a reasonable doubt:

- I had an Enom reseller account for $7.50 where I could enter automatically my credit card details (without adding funds) to register domains getting it charged every time in case of successfull registrations only.
The advantage ? I wasn't subject to their charge fee, it seems ...

Now I purchased an $6.95 account where, clicking on "My Info", I've no way to enter my credit card details and I've a fee every time I try to fill my account with new direct credit.

But help me better understanding the difference between these 2 accounts: in the first, I click on "My Info" and I find all fields to enter my card details but this doesn't happen in the second, why ?
Maybe because it's a $6.95 account ? Maybe with a $7.00 account I'll avoid this problem ?

Note: $6.95 + 3% = about $7.16 per registration :(

I've never heard of that problem - and I think they should be the same. Their are 2 main type od enom accounts, retail and reseller - but they should have the same information for payment.

Try this forum - it's a new enom resellers forum:
http://www.enomforums.com/forum/index.php

They beet me to it - by this much :)

Ok Dot, I'll investigate deeply through their forum, thanks but either accounts in my possess should be "resellers'accounts" ...

They are the same, enom changed the way they authenticate CC transactions, and it hardly works for shit!

Sounds like your $7.50 account is a "retail" acct.

Your 7.50 account is a reail account (the person who cut your accoutn has to eat the 3% I think). The 6.95 account is a resellers account.

Ok all clear now so, the better reseller's price that Enom can do, all considered, is $7.15 ($6.95 + 3%).
Well, I prefer telling things as they really are :)

Yes your reseller can set "retail" or "refill"

they normally set $6.95 to $7.50 to "refill" because of the credit card fees involved

if you fill your account with $100 - you get $97 to spend ....

so yes i can see where your saying 3% but only one single transaction

From then on its $97 - 6.95 a time

I have a sub-reseller account and its $6.95 from doberry

I have a 6.95 account also and was wondering about all this last night. I wanted to register a name but I have to fund my account first and take the 3 percent hit. So does that mean if I want to register one name I should basically add 6.95 + (6.95 * .03)? Is it $7.15 or $7.16 with rounding?? Anyone tried this before? What happens if I try to "checkout" without any money in my account? Will it ask me for a credit card or will it try to debit my account and go negative. I did not get far enough to test is out.

Yes, you can't attempt to register names without filling the account with a minimum amount of $100 first and there's no way to solve this matter so consider that you're paying $7.15 per name, nothing to do ...

Best is to send enom a check for a couple thousand. This way, no transaction fees, and if you are a reseller, your account won't go dry.

Never tried to push to registerfly but I guess you can't reverse, only 'transfer' and it will add another year of domain name registration...
