  Soon (within 1-2 days) I’ll be adding PayPal (worldwide) + direct card payments (worldwide) to the site.💪 After that, I’ll start adding Google Pay and Apple Pay (which should finally work properly)🥳 Also curious what else you’d like to see added to the website.🤔 Or maybe there’s something you didn’t like that you’d want me to improve/fix.🥲 If you’ve run into any bugs or issues as well, let me know - I’ll read everything and seriously consider it.🤝

  Payment processors are going after anything labeled as "art" or "commission", holding things up by like 3+ or more days. Kickstarter tried to crack down on legal NSFW art and revoked it, PayPal is doing it now but caught in the crossfire are literally any artists who label their invoices ANYTHING art-related. To get around this, you have to use "Request payment" and click "Friends & Family", and not goods and services. I'm not sure why this is happening, but I've heard on the rumor mill the usual suspects at OnlyFans and PHub have been pressuring payment processors to go after NSFW artists so they can get more people to join OF and PHub as creators, and in the crossfire, PayPal has gone ultra-mode and is icing anything art-related until they can research your portfolio/business to ensure it is up to par. In the case of fellow game creators, you must ensure your storefront content isn't too violent and doesn't have any suggestive themes, because these are being ham-fistedly categorized as "pornography" and this is what payment processors are looking at.

  @PattyTrills Imagine being so insecure you have to flex your finances on someone going through financial trouble. You reap what you sow and if I had to guess soyboyluke's PayPal account is going to dry up pretty quick here.

  I mean, if the case was the artist you've been waiting for them to open commission, would it turn u down if they only accept payment beside paypal?

  Apartheid me Elmo who begged Epstein to invite him to parties has opinions on morality. What is morally wrong is for the PayPal mafia to not be hanging upside down for constantly pursuing technocracy with a side dish of mass surveillance

  @vapor_vtuber @Wokenessisevil At what point does it become a utility I understand cake's never gonna become a utility, no matter how much certain people wanted to But the service these paypal services provide it could easily be bypassed with a check in mail I know that is a terrible alternative But where do we draw the line between utility and non utility And who should be allowed to determine that

  @HieuHere349 I'm sorry I've never had this problem. I just filled out the information and I used paypal as a payout. My personal FB profile also matches my name too. I have heard people outside of the US having similar issues I think. PIB has a whatsapp group that may be useful for you. There is a group called "Facebook admin, payout, account issues". Others who have had similar issues may be able to help

  Following up on this. Despite @eBay refusing to do anything for the infinite people affected by this, you can and should go through paypal or file a chargeback with your credit card. Ebay said it's impossible to return it and refused any reasonable refund. Paypal/CC will force them to accept the return for a full refund if you provide photo evidence of receiving what you purchased damaged. Forcefully, get your money back from this trash company. Also, the return address is @PSAcard. Absolutely embarrassing that a company that specializes in the card market for 30+ years lacks even a basic understanding of how to ship a card so it doesn't get mangled. 6+ months ago they acknowledged this is an issue and would be changing packaging and still nothing has been done. Criminal levels of negligence and zero accountability unless they're forced. Change will come when we stop allowing them to say "I understand we damaged the card but I still think it'll get a PSA7, so it's exactly what you ordered" and force full refunds on every single bit of value lost due to their incompetence.

  @FatLeon93 @KalebPrime Vanished without a word. Last Steam activity was Feb 9th, last Twitter was Feb 12th. I have his full name, paypal, last known AL address, and tried to track down any obituaries, arrests/court dates, or missing persons report and none turn anything up. Just ghosted.
